Another one whose sleep improves with no alcohol 10/20 pleaseMade 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 !!4 -

8/15 for me today please cathybird.
Ps loving the milestone emojis!5 -
Thanks to those who commented on my last post. @redofromstart I think you may be right regarding a clean break stop, just don’t feel ready for that at the moment. Maybe one day. @Watty1, glad you understood the feeling and well done for avoiding wine on Friday night. @Vanladythanks for the well done. I did like your tip regarding a nice glass, lime/mint cordial and tonic water - sounds like a proper drink. So many AF drinks are very sweet!Stayed AF so far although very rocky today for lots of reasons. However, 6/10 please up until today. Maybe the thought of that emoji will help tonight 😂😂5

11/25 for me today please.
I agree that the majority of soft drinks and AF drinks are horribly sweet. Lime and soda is about the only option when going out.
What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?5 -
