Maggie and LATTL and WBF, sometimes that is how it is and not how we want it to be.I’ve had some dreadful months in the past so can really relate to how you feel.For me it’s all or nothing. If it’s a drinking day, it’s a bottle of wine, sometimes more, I can’t have 1or 2. Then I know about it the next day. I function on the outside but feel rubbish inside. Yet it’s my treat to do this.I’m having a good spell this month due to circumstances but I know how I easily slip unless I’m vigilant. Sometimes it’s easier not to try.My other fault is when it’s all going wrong I don’t post here. So the fact you are is a bonus.Just keep trying…..guilt makes things worse.Live for the moment and plan for the future5

Hi all, a fraught time educating a friend who has a mild inability to understand numbers (dyscalcula?) and financially naïve. Not stupid, just doesn't know things. £25,000 in a non-interest-paying account! Trying to get that sorted for them.
That's an aside as we know. 24/27 and the sweetcorn on drugs is in my sights!Now a gainfully employed bassist again - WooHoo!3 -

Morning all, 10/13 for me please.
Like @CuppaTea I think it is really good that people are posting even when things are not going as well as hoped. Just showing up here is a sign that you mean to change things for the better, when you feel able to.5 -
25 done so far this month. Have just had two weeks holiday and used it to refurbish my bathroom. Such a stressful holiday and nearly caved in and drank last few days..Debt Free April 2023 and now a mortgage free Wannabe5

Hi all, 26/27 today and weather? Copious persistent precipitation, and it's raining.
The gig went well, so much so the band has asked me to become thier permanent bassist - and they didn't complain about my backing vocals!Now a gainfully employed bassist again - WooHoo!5
