Hi everyone
Lovely to see all those trees, well done everyone, regardless of whether or not you have a tree, we're all socking it to the booze multinationals and hitting them where it hurts, on their balance sheets.
I have another in the bag 6/25 and should get my tree tomorrow.

I didn't declare early yesterday as the morning was too rushed. After a very hectic and exhausting day I decided to buy and open some wine last night. Actually had I declared early I think I would have resisted the temptation. This shows how helpful this thread is for me in making me reduce alcohol consumption.
So declaribg early for today, Wednesday, 4/15 please.

Doing well. Thought i would buy some wine on way home but decided a mug of hot chocolate would be better. In the event I actually realised I needed sleep and that was even better as it saved the calories!Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!4 -
6/25 for me today.
I fully agree that declaring early is a great motivator to swerve the booze. I would have been tempted to have a drink last night at the parish social club after a hybrid meeting (in person and via zoom) that had exactly 3 attendees, two of us were the organisers. I know the weather (as well as Covid fears) put people off venturing out, but it was very disappointing. Instead I stuck with my declarationWhat would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?5
