    Good luck with the job hunting Sukeyboo. It's a difficult time to be looking and well done on staying positive and getting AFDs.

    Declaring early for today Wednesday 9/21 please.

    Pumpkin day tomorrow! 😁
    Good luck with the job search sukey. I think you've coped brilliantly. It would have been so easy to turn to drink. 😉

    I got 16 for October in the end. 
    Currently on 5 for November. Think it’s best to go TF. 
    Now I’m not driving some evenings it’s easier to give in to temptation. 
    Life seems dull at the moment. Kids seem harder work, it’s dark early, it’s all work and no play. One of mine had to isolate over half term so none of us could really do much. Then lockdown happened. It’s pants. Feeling sorry for myself and worried. Covid is at work and school. I’m trying not to think about it too much. 

    Live for the moment and plan for the future

    Keep your chin up, feeling similar, everything seems more trying right now.

    @ManPants I just did a One Year No Beer challenge, 28 days although I only made it to 26. It was ok, you're in a Facebook group but there were also people from my work in the group... it has tens of thousands of members so I suppose it's not a surprise. As my job is high profile I didn't feel comfortable posting, so I didn't really benefit from the support network. It's quite expensive too, so I don't think I'd do it again. 
    Thanks for the info @AnnieG. 26 days is still a good effort I would say and i completely "get you" re-high profile job and being seen posting on Facebook. I think that is why i like it here. Added another day to my total taking me to 7 AF

    Think lots of us are feeling similar Lantanna and CuppaTea. These dark mornings and evenings don't help. Today there is some blue sky out there which does help me a bit, anything other than those awful grey dark drizzly days. 

    Declaring early as per so 10/21 please.
