5/25 please cathybird. Thank you. XMy husband is waiting for an obscenely large wine delivery today, including some that was my daily tipple. It's weird, I am ok now with having that much 'temptation' in the house, although the amount of money it represents makes me 🤬. My husband's heavy drinking makes me less likely to drink rather than more. I am extremely worried about him but he has to make his own decisions just as I did 😕.3

I'm up to 5/TF which I am super pleased with. Another weekend cracked. I've now had four weekends in a row. Two with my children and two without. It seems to be getting easier. Still not sure what the ultimate plan is.
Bit annoyed that any savings that I will be making on my consumption on wine will most likely be going towards the electricity bill, but better that than not being able to pay it, right?Pink Sproglettes born 2008 and 2010

Yes, and that obviously will impact us all. Heard on radio on Friday an interview with a young mum who couldn't afford her bills now, let alone later. The interviewer at one point asked "Can't you use the tumble dryer and TV little less?" Her reply "No, we don't have either". I imagine most of us here can cut back - that lady had nothing to cut back.pollyanna24 said:Bit annoyed that any savings that I will be making on my consumption on wine will most likely be going towards the electricity bill, but better that than not being able to pay it, right?
