    still 12/15 .this is hard
    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 !!

    @Watty1 It's especially hard at this time of year, it seems to be expected that people will drink all Christmas & New Year. Season of Mist is right, hang in there xx

    24/25 please cathybird. Thank you. X

    My current dry streak is 363, I last had an alcoholic drink 26 December 2022. Still haven't decided whether to have a dry Christmas/Boxing Day and make it a year 🤔. We have guests coming who will undoubtedly bring some very nice wine to accompany the Christmas meal(s) and it would be nice to participate. I'll post either way over the next day or two. 
    Wishing everyone a great Christmas. X
