    Please highlight your AFDs in Red

    Don't hesitate to let me know if I've made a mistake!
    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.

    Maman mentioned that today is your first day of the new job Satchmo. I hope it went well.

    Yes! How did you get on?

    Two more AFDs for me up to last night - 7/19. Might have some mulled wine after Small's school play this evening. Watched the dress rehearsal this morning and the kids were hilarious - some on purpose and others unwittingly so :rotfl:

    2/15, not going very well here at the moment at all!!!!

    Find it hard to be AL, once tempted to have one it quickly becomes 2, 3 or even 4!!!!

    Declaring tonight though and going to keep busy wrapping Christmas prezzies and having an early night.

    Thanks maman. The dancing smiley definitely made me feel better, but let's just say while the day didn't improve it also didn't get worse!!

    First check-in of the month To be perfectly honest I'm on 5/18 but one of those "drinking" days was just a very small glass - more of a mouthful - of weak mulled wine so I'm going to declare 6/18 and hope that it is in the "spirit" of the rules.

    Declaring early with 7/20 AFDs.


    The first day of the job went really well, with routine stuff then an hour spent talking through expectations (I'd asked for that).
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?
