It was old when I was young. I thought a helter skelter was the name for a playground slide in England, but maybe its a regional thing. I was trying to be an Anglophile and I failed miserably!!

I've just remembered something! Last time I gave up (25 days) I felt very spiritual and at peace. This time round I just don't feel it - I feel that I've let him down and he's got the huff on with me lol. My friend says that is not the case and that it is my conscience. I hope so xx

Hugs to those who need one and well done for all who are reaching milestones.

Not got much to tell you really apart from I am bored which is one of the reasons I drank! Im going to look for a part time voluntary job when I'm feeling stronger. I would love to work in a charity shop sounds fun!

Daughter and hubby are back off their honeymoon tomoz so no doubt I will be seeing all the fotos of their holiday soon. I have really missed her.

Day 10 and still strong. God bless you all xxx
Volunteering is great, it really helped grow my confidence and I made good friends through it. I get paid now because I'm trained to cover when no one else is around. It'll definitely kill that boredom as well. Well done on Day 10.

Not staying tonight guys, feeling rough and need to wake up early for work tomorrow. Probably won't make a morning check-in so I'll catch you all in the evening. Goodnight.

Hi guys!!

You guys are doing awesome. Thought I'd pop in and just say hello. 44 days today.

One of my boys brought home school work, like every week, and one of the questions / projects was, what's worth more than gold to you.... He wrote, my mom and dad. Can't say he would have written that 44 days ago!!!

Unless Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, and Jimmy Page come by my house at midnight tonight carrying bottles of Jack Daniels and wanting to jam, I'm confident I'll make it to Day 51.
Knb, kidding aside, I'm glad you're back and posting. This isn't an exact science, and having a drink or having a relapse isn't the end of the world. We've all been drunk.... it's not like you robbed a bank or something. The important thing is that you're sticking with it. What would suck is if you disappeared, knb. As long as you're here, you're trying and you'll get it right this next time, I know.

Thanks GG - I have been following your messages, which I definitely appreciate. Thank you. I hope your situation resolves itself in the best possible way to pave the way to better days ahead. I look forward to continuing to read your updates.

If you were jamming with these men I would be coming over with Coke.

Diet Coke :-)

Aw, F me sideways, but why on earth would you need to think that??

ANGLOphile is truly, totally overrated. Just Google it. Better yet, just look it up, ANYwhere. Better yet, just look at knb's avatar. She has changed it multiple times -- and yet she should NOT have to do that.

I know, she's always mixing it up, keeping it fresh! No need, really.
