    Sunday 7 sept AF daily

    morning all,I don't drink and its day 8.
    Bought 7 year old car yesterday,seems ok,year's warranty,tax and MOT for 6 months,I spent my bathroom money on it but I need a more reliable car and our bathroom works,it's just a bit chipped and battered. Went to friend's body shop party too and treated myself to lots of things as it was 40% off,nice to have lots of pamper stuff in.
    Spent evening watching Christmas programmes on food network and cuddling with the cat, in bed by 11 - bliss!

    Today off out for lunch with OH and his mum,doing some washing and cleaning,not hit the gym yet as been having pangs in stomach,I plan to go today even if I just walk and do some arm weights. Getting clothes ready for work tomorrow,and planning food/gym sessions - I've only got to work four weeks until I have a week off again This week has done me good,just doing nothing each day,with no obligations,I've really enjoyed the solitude.

    Lav - really liked your advice to Pauly, things I can learn too in there.

    Hope you all have a great day.
    one day at a time

    Good morning Abbers,

    Thanks for the start up bear
    Congrats on the new car & good luck with it too!
    I have always insisted on having a safe & dependable car myself. Living where I do now it's an absolute necessity. There are no stores within walking distance, only cows around here :H
    When I need a carton of milk or a loaf of bread I have a minimum of a 16 mile round trip.

    Greetings to Mick, Sam, PQ, Det, Pauly, SL, SF, TT & everyone!
    I hope we all have a fantastic AF Sunday!

        MAE ALL...

        Bear...thank's for kicking us off and I hope you had a good lunch. Did you go in your "new" car?

        Lav...I remember having to be a lot more organized with my grocery shopping while I was living on the ranch. No such thing as popping down to the corner store for milk. Hope you're having a restful Sunday.

        Pauly...I always used to drive a truck and had no problems backing up to shoots and hooking up horse/cattle trailers etc. but now that I'm in my little ford focus I can't back up worth sh*t. I think it's cause I'm too close to the ground.

        Temps going up to +25 today then the winds pick up and the rain/sleet moves in. Tuesday will see highs of +2 and 5 cm of snow. :shocked: Back from grocery shopping and now out for a long walk before the weather changes. Hope you all have a super AF Sunday.....PPQP

          Hi all! Pauly, you sound good - hope it is real, good job on bouncing back.
          Bear - well done on the week, the car and the treats!
          Hi Lav - I agree, reliable car is a must - just have the one, so it better start!
          Happy Sunday TT, Sam, Mick, PPQ, Det and SF!
          Legs ache more today than I thought - we really did not run far!!!
          Met an old friend at the Greek festival - she gave me my first real job after arriving here (was hired by unscrupulous agency and soon chose to leave). Turns out I had not seen her for over 14 yrs as she did not know of daughter #2! Drinking and the life I led did not make me the best of friends for sure

                Ahoy AF fiddlers and tire-kickers across the fruited plains!

                day 6 on the road and just tired and sore as can be but at least it's been interesting since i'm out with the teams on training exercises. found myself in a very rare place indeed....inside the bay bridge! to get into the service area (just underneath where the cars drive) you have to take a boat out to one of the vertical supports, then through a tiny door, then up 135 very steep steps, then up two vertical steel ladders and.... there you are! quite the adventure indeed.

                I cleverly chose a hotel not even close to the one with the hospitality suite, so I have the perfect excuse to be an AF hermit on this trip. Missing my dear wife so very much....she was gone a week for burning man, then I left for this trip just before she got home. d-oh! hopefully tomorrow is 'home day'.

                Bear, next time yer at the body shop grab me a neck, two ankles and a knee!

                Mick, wow that's a complex drink you posted. sounds very savory indeed.

                mighty homesick here but keeping my ass AF and certainly getting more exercise than I usually do on the road.

                be well peeps!
