......so last night when my brain said....ooohhh a little glass of red would be just lovely - I forced myself to remember the come down and how good it is to feel fresh in the morning rather than that horrible muggy tired feeling
AND...knowing you lot are here, with no judgement really, really helps[UNQUOTE}
I completely agree with this way of managing my deep-set habit! :T
All relatively calm in the Pricey house at the momentD?H really made an effort last weekend and admitted he had been a complete idiot over Christmas :T He has now come back early for this weekend - I do hope his improved behaviour continues ...
Have a good Thursday all x0 -
Alex - you are on a roll
Pricey - hope all goes well for you with D?H over the weekend
Well done to all those who are on the last leg of the Dryathlon - you have all done amazingly well :T.
As for me - I had a bad night last night, half a bottle of wine and a pint of cider :eek: - and I feel terrible for it this morning - serves me right :mad:.
Have a good day everyone0 -
Morning :hello:
1 more AFD.
ShaggyxWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -

I'm so pleased for everyone that's had a good month for the Dryathlon. Well done to you all!:T
Today will be my last AF night this month and then I'm away for a few days. I'm hoping to do a little better in February. What I have noticed is that my tolerance is dropping such that I often stop drinking mid-evening as I know I've had enough. So even though my AFDs are relatively low, the amount I drink is going down.
Thanks for the scoring Shaggy. It's such a big help to us all.:A
11 AF for January please.0
