          Got side tracked. A motorbike frog is a frog (obviously) that sounds like a motorbike changing gears and accelerating. They are so cute. When my son was young we had a tape with all sorts of different frog noises on and he would love to play it while we were in the car. So we would be driving down the street with frogs chirping away..... Strange what you remember when the fog clears!
          Hi Tant. Glad you are back and in one piece. Well done for getting thru such a huge event sober. x
          I finally got it!

            Morning everyone, like a zoo in this place last night?!
            Glad you're back Tant, You've been through a difficult time and you have been very strong - well done.
            Fennel I was climbing Howth Head yesterday - the rhodedendroms are out and they are absolutely magnificent - it was a beautiful evening and we went for a lovely meal afterwards and all in all had a lovely night.
            Morning Hipster!

              Couldn't bring myself to log....I took my first sip at the tender age of fourteen..........guess I was hooked from there. At the age of thirty five...I held it down to a bottle of wine on the weekend....fast forward............now I'm 56.............It's a bottle.....almost every night...on the nights that I "abstain". ... I struggle from 5 till 7. If i can make it past the magic hours.............I'm fine. Any hoo.........I'm tired and fed up. I want to greatly reduce. I would appreciate info on meds that would decrease the cravings for wine .......with few se........This website is a GodSend!

I was so glad to see so many people there and all had a good word to say about Dad. We will miss him but I know he is in a good place now. Good news is that I didn't succum to the tempation. I had my tonic water even afterwards at the wake when many were imbibing. I felt powerful and in control for the first time in my life in a very emotional situation.
                I have'nt had a chance to catch up on all the news of the nest yet but will spend some serious time at the computer on the weekend. Take care everyone I need you all.

                Love Tant:thanks:
                I am very sorry for your loss. How very strong you were to stay AF in such a circumstance. My hat is off to you (well, if I HAD a hat - it would be off!!) :h

                  Hi guyz. Just wanted to stick my head in here. The thread is far too busy for me today to keep up with what you're all up to. But hoping you all have a great day!!

                  The journey is the goal. As long as you're fighting the good fight and you're not giving up on giving up, you're winning. It's not about how often you get knocked down, it's about how often you get up again. Sobriety the goal for sure. But striving to get to that goal is what it's about. Not getting there. Because the journey never ends. The journey is the goal.
