Day 3

All good apart from a cold.

Back again.

Did really well for a long time but then life got in the way and hit a bump in the road. Ready to start again so here goes. Things were so much better!

Day 38

That's a happy number.  I have blogged in my head all the way through, but never quite know what I want to write.  Briefly, yes, life is better.  I have been absolutely exhausted and have only begun to feel like not falling asleep at 8pm in the last few days.  I have been very productive in the mornings.  More of the benefits in a future blog.  But with a slight lifting of the exhaustion have been the biggest cravings and feelings of caving in.  I'm still here though!  Well done me!
My present Oscar acceptance speech starts with:
"I have to thank Seedlip and Fevertree tonic, without whom undoubtedly I wouldn't be here..."
(Just for the record, unfortunately my day job doesn't qualify me for an Oscar, so the black dress is still in the cupboard).

Feeling better

Feeling a lot more positive today, but quite fragile.  Got a lot done.  The evening is definitely the hardest part.  I'm tired, but how do I unwind when I feel this tired but can't go to bed outrageously early!

Back again

So, I had success, I had failure.  Life got in the way and my last attempt didn't last.  I'm still not comfortable blogging, and it seemed like everyone else was succeeding.
I'm giving it all another go.  I'm scared, feeling down and alone in my quest.  Seeing the determination of  other bloggers when they've hit a hurdle has given me the will to try again, so here goes.

Day 9

Can't believe it's day 9!  Feel absolutely exhausted, even first thing in the morning.  Had to go to bed ridiculously  early last night.  It's a bit like flu without the fever.  Hopefully this will pass soon.  Onwards and upwards.

Day 6

Still here. Had planned to blog every day, but life is busy and I'm exhausted by the evening.  So I'm getting in early today.  Went for a family meal on Friday night.  I didnt drink, but felt fidgety and tired.
The sun's up.  I've got a lot to do to day, but drinking alcohol is not part of it.
