Hey Evangeline, glad you are feeling great. It gets easier to get to sleep and sleep through the longer you are AF. Well done - hope the topa helps too.

Hi All,

Friday night 4.30pm and just realised that I am not doing the shall i shan't i routine. I am going to a Women's AA meeting to take care of to-night and am sad to say that my buddy who was arrested on a drink relate offence whislt she said she wanted help yesterday is not coming to-night for any help. I feel so sad. It is so hard admitting and then doing soemthing about it and it is hard to not worry knowing how much she crossed the line this week. Anyway I wasn't that far behind her this last four year or so can't judge it. Again a quickie because at work and need the reminder between now and 8pm. Will be in touch over the weekend - there are so many on this post and it has lasted a good long time. Best wishes to you all.

good luck!

Fjones, good luck to you this weekend, I too will go to an AA meeting tonight, funny cuz mine is mostly guys, can't relate to alot of women's meetings(??!!) Anyway, do whatever it takes girlie, and don't worry about your friend, she will stop when she is ready...........I know first hand not to worry about others, take care of myself, cuz I let myself get REALLY bad that way, and finally came to realize I am gonna die if I don't stop FOR ME and not friends or family etc...............won't be here over most of weekend, but there will be lots of people here, hope to see you doing well.........

love,

MA

Hello All,

Hope you all had a great weekend! I had a very relaxed one. Did some baking and made Cottage Pie on Saturday. Yesterday I went on a wonderful 3 hour walk in the country and came home to a roast cooked by my partner.
It's our 8 year anniversary today - man time flies.
Wishing you all well.
