Well done Manpants and a great charity to raise a substantial sum for.I am beyond thrilled to meet my annual target, first time I think. Who knew getting more AF days in would mean meeting a target more quickly 😉! Lantanna looks like you will be there too soon.Congratulations AnnieG too getting to target today in the face of great temptation. Marahouti, hope your OH has a lovely birthday and you were able to celebrate too. Wanna bee free, hope the stress reduces and you get another good nights sleep. I think lots of us, me for one, have responded to stress by drinking more. I sometimes have delivered training on handling stress, oh the irony of saying that alcohol is not a good coping strategy! It's a wonder there wasn't a sudden lightening strike.4

Congrats Manpants, I got another one to chalk up 11/8, missed a trick really as it not November until tomorrow. Had a change from tonic water to ginger ale tonight.
Nothing to see here, move along.4 -
