Hello Everyone!
Happy Valentines Day to you all - the 14th February is a special day for me as it was my Six month anniversary of not drinking. Not even a sip. Feels rather odd as it feels a lot longer than it has been!
@cathybird 14/28 so far for this month.
Thank you all.

10/14 Proud of this. Went out for Valentines afternoon tea as I thought I would not be tempted to drink as was an afternoon tea. Saw the glasses of fizz being bought out and was tempted but did not. As the afternoon descended into evening we were sitting by a lovely fire in comfy chairs and the boyfriend said we had better get back to bring in the horses, so, that was the end of the idea of a drink.
So pleased with that. Tonight challenge is dinner with girlfriends and the village panto. I am reminding myself how ill I felt last Sunday as a way of staying away from the bottles of plonk!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 !!7 -
13/24 for me today please.
I succumbed to a glass of red wine last night, and today I have been feeling lethargic, with a headache 🙁, so the more alcohol-free days the better for me!7 -

10/20 today please Cathybird. I had forgotten about February being a shorter month (I got caught out with this last year too). It's been very fraught at work which has resulted in some calling at the shop on the way home and now I am going away. I am going to try really hard to have at least two AFDs while I'm away (this will absolutely be a first!) so I can reach my target.6

10/10 please for Saturday so hurray target achieved and lots of month left. However we are away most of March so need to get lots more AFDs in February.
