Nothing has changed, the day after the day before, I have to say I am now in the habit of not drinking every day, which is so wierd to think that this habit is as hard to break as the one a year ago? I’ve joked for a while that my jump from the wagon […]
Last year on 12th November I sat on the sofa after another particularly heavy drinking session and I looked at Jamie and told her I was thinking about giving up drinking for a while…? To actually say those words out loud had been worrying me for ages because it felt like I was admitting something, […]
Today woke up in a great mood, Saturday and my plan was to potter and I like pottering so with Mommy at fat club followed by breakfast with Women of Worth at church I thought I would get a load of washing in so that uniforms were done first: “Lincoln, are your dirty clothes in […]
