Good morning. 
It was my son's birthday yesterday and I did briefly consider having a drink to celebrate giving birth to such a wonderful man, but my son doesn't drink and my DH was driving so I decided not to. I am 2/21 for yesterday please cathybird. Thank you. X

Good to see you posting @alt80. It's early days yet and always hard to get started when the month starts at the weekend. 🤔

I need to just quit drinking for a bit not touched the other !!!!!! for 122 days but end of September drinking most evenings caught back up with me. Yesterday was a bit sad went out with my family for a big dog walk and after locked myself in my home office had too much to drink. Today I have felt so ill not been out the house. Hardly been out of bed tbh hangovers definitely worse post 40 ha.

For what it's worth @alt80, it's not a good idea to try to change two habits at the same time. You've done brilliantly on the other stuff 👏👏👏 but maybe trying to do both at the same time might be a big ask. Why not try for AF during the week for a while? Just an idea. 🤔

@maman I was doing well with my count actually think I have a better life substance free. Thank you.
