      spill....what happened on your birthday??
      I got home from work and hubs had purchased several bottles of my favorite wine, plus had a pitcher of martinis all made and the glasses chilling in the freezer. I didn't stand a chance.

      So back to square one... But, as I always like to commit to something on a momentous day of some sort (quit smoking the first day of the new millenium but that would be quite a wait) my birthday will have to do!

      Any word on the interview yet? (I'm still waiting, too...)

        Morning everyone, its a bitter sweet morning on my end.


        Last day in British Columbia, seems just it was just yesterday I got here (November 28th) Oh well time to move on and start another chapter in my life. I'll be on the road all week visiting a old friend in Red Deer, Hopefully I can behave myself.

        Hope everyone has a good start to there week!

          Happy monday ya'll!

          Made it through weekend number 4 AF and going strong. My one and only temptation came on Saturday when I was at my sister's house for a BBQ, my brother-in-law offered me a beer (they don't know I'm going AF) but I simply said "Nah, I'm on a diet"...and that was that! Needless to say I proceeded to fill my plate with food (and seconds!), but they didn't seem to notice. LOL

          Hope everyone had a great weekend, and here's to the last week of April being AF!

          xoxo

                          Just a quick check in

                          Hi Katie - I'm there with you. Day 3.

                          I'm off to work now so haven't time to read much - so much has been happening in the nest while I was asleep! Have to try to catch up tonight.

                          A good thing is I have that resolve back that I had in January. Must be Lavanitude rubbing off. Thanks Lav.

                          I never want to numb myself with al ever again. I have learnt also that even if I manage to have just one drink at some time, that still sets me up for a whole lot more later on - just seems to pave the way. So al is not in the equation any more.

                          Will definitely be needing that butt velcroe and the seat belt and all of you. Thank you all so much and have a great day/night.

                            Evening All,

                            Dancingon: sincere apologies for voicing a negative assumption about your experience.
                            Mazzie, KatieB, Chook, mollyka, Liverbirdy and Hippy Chick thank you for the welcome and your suggestions and concerns to my wee hours postings.
                            Lavande: I hear you.
                            Sunshine I am trying to download the book right now.
                            Anyone: I would like to simply pay by CC and provide my email address. I'm not sure why they would require a shipping address and phone number to do this. Can someone explain this to me or tell me what I may be doing wrong?:new:

                              Hi Ringing...

                              Hmm.. I can't remember whether I put in mailing address/phone number.. although you usually have to provide a billing address for your cc, no? Hope you figure it out or someone else can help. Good luck.. and it really is a great read, you'll enjoy it!

                              Mazzie, good to see you... and great news on the Lavanitude! Imagine if she could bottle and sell it.. she'd be one rich chick!!! :H

                              Night night Coco.. and Hey Katie! Feeling better today?

                              Nora, good to have you back 'ready to be happy again and to be who I want to be'!
                              And you too, Running So, who's all in on the 30 day challenge?

                              Months and months ago we ended up with probably 15 people joining, it was awesome and almost all of us made it! There is strength in numbers, for sure!

                                I'd like to join but I'm afraid to let myself down.
