Hi Guys,Sorry I haven't been around. So much to do, now that all 3 of us are in the house all day. More cooking, more cleaning. And going to the shops to get food and stuff is a faf and a bit stressful to be honest. Does seem to be more food and stuff around again. I think there is a little less panic buying going on. DH got 4 loo rolls today! He probably could have 8 but he felt guilty taking 2 packsMother's day was a little sad. Did Skype with eldest dear son which was lovely. However, I do feel guilty typing that because Mum's were on the front line yesterday.I've been !!!!!! on the AFDs. I've drank for 10 days in a row. I'm on here because I want to committ to a big big bunch of AFDs. DH is joining me (he's also drank for 10 days in row - not like him at all). So fingers crossed that I can get into the AF zone.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.6

Shaggy, the world right now is crazy - at the start of March you couldn't have predicted it. I wouldn't blame anyone for struggling right now with alcohol or anything else!

I finally managed to get to 2/10 - one for Friday and one for Saturday.
Sorry to hear I'm not the only one struggling - keep posting everyone!
I'm planning another one tonight. Sleep well everyone.5 -
4/10 - but not easy. Really had to fight the temptation to open a bottle tonight - and we only have one in because I was intending to have a drink tomorrow night! I'm not surprised that it is harder to abstain in these very unprecedented times. Stay safe all
