9/21 please Cathybird. Family 355 I know exactly what you mean and I have convinced myself many a time that it isn't very moneysaving to throw wine away (even though this then involves buying a new bottle because there's not enough left over)! I've sometimes frozen left over wine to add to casseroles or just chucked it in something I was cooking because I couldn't bear to throw it away.8

Thank you @cathybird and @oceandreamer- great ideas! I should know full well by now that 1 glass is not enough (as talked about with @RobM99 a the start of the year) so i need to stop setting myself up to fail! I'm not sure why I need to be all or nothing, no one else around me does this!
3/14 for yesterday please cathybird7 -
I'm another that can't stop at one glass @family355, definitely an all or nothing person. I dithered yesterday evening when I got home after a stressful meeting but decided I'd rather have a cup of tea and be pleased with myself for not drinking on a school night. 😇🤣
6/10 AFDs please @cathybird7 -
I'm the same @family355 ! One turns into two.. turns into a lot more than that! I don't think it is you at all but the nature of alcohol unfortunately so try not to feel bad.
I'm on 9/26 for today please.. can't actually remember if I've already posted todayDebt free November 20228 -
Good evening.
I am 10/25 please cathybird. Thank you. X
