    Many happy returns for yesterday @Lupus_Lou.😊

    That's a relief to get your car through the MOT so easily @RobM99. The way you're going it won't be long before you have the new car. 😁

    I've been out for lunch but as I was driving and driving again later I stuck to fizzy water.

    15/10 AFDs please @cathybird

    Another +1 for me yesterday thank you. Had a drink this evening but glad I left it at one; not in the best frame of mind but also know it's not worth it.
  • Alcohol is unbelievably bad, as I know from experience. Jordan Peterson thinks so too, and he is right about most other stuff.

    24/25 for me today.... target day tomorrow.

    I'm looking forward to having lunch with my sister at a new cafe. I need it, I've been feeling unusually weepy yesterday and today.

    Yesterday I got a letter saying I need a third jab. The website said I'm not eligible. 119 phone line chappie said I can't book via the phone, grrr.

    This morning I was half way through drying my hair and the hairdryer went on strike - grrr.

    Then, during a Pilates class, a nearby woman started coughing (in an air conditioned gym). Anxiety struck. I got my mask and wore it for the rest of the session. I'm "vulnerable" due to a rare blood condition (polycythemia vera). 
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Target day today - 10/10 please.  Not such a success in that at the start of the month I had intended to get a lot more but I'm pleased I am back to school nights AF these last couple of weeks. Let's hope November is better.
