    You may not have had an AF day Cathybird but I think it is a success when someone has had some alcohol and feels in control.

    Thanks maggiem :)

    It's 16/21 for me today. :)

    I too think you had a successful day yesterday cathybird. You chose to drink yesterday, today you choose not to. You are in control not the alcohol.
    16/31 and 5/5 SNC for yesterday please Shaggy. Thank you. X

    But I got back on it last night and intend to tonight and tomorrow to make up for it.
    Still on 9/18. (Sad face)

    Not an AFD for me and to be accountable, I will say that I had two cocktails and a glass of wine with lunch, then late in the afternoon we had a leaving celebration for someone who quit work today so someone handed me a small glass of champagne for that, to which I didn't say no, then I had a margarita when I got home (one shot of tequila and one shot of cointreau along with the lime). So quite a lot but I wasn't drunk at any time and I feel okay. Back in the saddle tomorrow. :)

    Sounds like you were in control, and you had a good time a win win in my book.

    Good morning everyone,
    17 please Shaggy
    Family birthday today, but I have nominated myself as duty driver:D

    Thanks marahouti and Arkers :) One good thing about it too is that I enjoy AFDs at least as much if not more than days where I have a drink, so that is pretty massive progress :)

  • 17/31 for me please x

    So I had an idea about not being able to sign in on my laptop but it all works perfectly on my phone.

    I went into saved passwords and found I have seven entries for MSE on 2 different email addresses. I deleted the lot. Then typed in the details I am using for my phone..........and I am in. Not sure how or why I had 7 saved passwords for one site, but I think Microsoft was finding it difficult to distinguish and so it didnt bother.

    Anyway, makes my life easier when I want to type more than a few lines.

    Have a good weekend all.
