Haha, no worries Chardonnay
I had a cider in the sun yesterday after work, just the one though. The next challenge will be Friday night as my boyfriends coming to visit and we'll be going out. I'm skint this month anyway so hopefully cutting down on the booze this weekend will save me some pennies!Starting 2016 debt-free

At last! An AF day for me to report
Makes it 3/24 - never gonna meet my target this month but I am massively curbing the amount I consume, which feels like a win to me.
Even a little reduction is a win and a start, well done

Have a great time nra then jump back on the wagon afterwards.
Strangely enough I enjoy my drinking more now that I don't have it every night as a habit. So, on a good week I won't drink during the week unless I go out for a meal and then it makes it special. Same with the weekend, it makes it different from run of the mill days. It's what I wanted to achieve, social drinking but not too excess.
Unfortunately this month there have been far too many social occasions!:o
Thanks Maman looking forward to tonight DH surprise so dont know where we are going. Have some bubbles in the cooler so may have those later

I would love to call in an early 6/13, but I'm out for a meal tonight with a friend, I'm not driving, which puts temptation in the way, and I've had a horrendous day at work and would love a pint of something pale and hoppy......
I'm going to try really hard not to give into temptation and stay strong0 -

4/24 tonight. Frantically packing ready to move (hopefully) at the end of next week. Just sealed all the alcohol in a box, so unless I rip it open in desperation, I should have a good few days ahead of me.0
