    That seems unusual happydenial. Do you know why? Did you used to do something special on Tuesdays? 🤔
    I put it down to the fact that I used to work Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, so Tuesday felt like a Friday?! I haven’t worked since March (I used to work part-time for a party planner on a self-employed basis, sadly that all went balls up thanks to Covid) so need to stop that Tuesday night drink!

    happydenial that makes perfect sense😀. I too no longer work but when I did Thursday was a day off. I still find myself thinking more about drinking on a Wednesday evening than I do other week days. X
  • Bagged my first AF day yesterday! 🙌 in all honesty it was more due to necessity than choice - I had to drive quite late so knew I couldn't drink - but I'm claiming it anyway! 😂
