    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.

    Divorce. After the sepsis I have evaluated the whole of my life.

    Last weekend he started clearing out his stuff. Took more than he was supposed to and my little girl was a little upset so I've been drinking all week as a way to sleep really. I have to replace more items than I thought. Thanks for all your kind words everyone. x

    Niknak very sorry to hear you have been going through this tough time - I'm sure there's not a lot you can do except keep on keeping on until things get better, but hope it doesn't get too hard on you, and that it gets better soon xx

    No plans to drink today. I'm still hopeful of getting more in this week but won't commit just yet as plans not firmed up.


    5/10 AFDs please Shaggy and 3 for the SNC.

    I wish I could persuade my OH to go dancing GreenKaren but in the 38 years we have been together I have never got him on the dance floor :eek:

    Shaggy

    I have seen my OH dancing about twice in the 15 years we have been together and that has been under the influence of large amounts of alcohol, then a couple of weeks ago he suggested a dance class and I nearly fell off my chair. Then after the class (which he really enjoyed) he was on youtube to get music to practise to on his own in the kitchen!!! Maybe it's a mid life crisis!

    Love to Nicnak, it's very easy to turn to alcohol in these situations and you are doing extremely well to even be thinking about cutting down and posting regularly. I have always withdrawn in time of crisis with my so call 'friend' the booze. Well done!

    Hi all,


    So far soo good this month


    7/27 for November


    and 3/4 for SNC


    My local pub is re-opening tonight, so might have to make a visit, and try to stick to the apple juice!


    Trying to sort out my eating habits too! I am really bad for not eating proper meals, and just constantly snacking, so I had 3 meals yesterday too!
