1/21 for me - I was seriously thinking about a glass of wine, but luckily logged on and up popped this thread! Small starts primary school tomorrow and I want a clear head. He's so tiny - where did the time go?
Mine started today too. Last oneI almost decided to drink after all last night but decided against it. I had some good news (hospital test came back all clear) and thought I'd celebrate but decided (after thinking of you lot;)) that I could wait until the weekend.
No drinking planned today.
2 AFDs please Shaggy.

Good ole Ebay), Carpentry for Beginners, Tiling, Wallpapering and General DIY for Beginners, Hair Up, Patchwork Bag in a Day, Willow Basket in a Day and finally with another organisation, Crochet for Beginners. I'm tired of waiting for OH to do the bits of the DIY stuff that I can't do and I'm okay-ish with sewing, so I figured if I extended my skillset it would be rather fun. One by one they stretch right through from September to next June, and they cost a lot less than the booze I would have sunk over the same period.
WOW!! Sounds like funWhat 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've had a blood pressure headache for the last two days - it's remarkably like a hangover.
Oh my that sounds horrible -What 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 -
