40 days


Yes it’s been 40 days (as a lapsed Catholic I quite like the reference) since I last had a drink.  I really think this is a HUGE accomplishment for me.  In fact I don’t think I have ever, in my adult life, gone this long without a drink.

It was hard the first week or so, but not now.  Now I don’t miss it at all.  Mind you, I’m looking forward to drinking a bottle of Dom Perignon with Mr Man at Christmas (and maybe a glass or two at New Year).

Whilst Dom is incredibly expensive, I’ve worked out that with the money I have saved, I can buy at least 6 bottles.  Now that’s what I call an incentive to save.

I have a deathly fear of bees : I have a natural ballet 'turn-out' position : Most people think I walk like a duck : I use to hate my freckles when I was young, but now love them : I hate people calling me 'dude' : I have never been bitten by a spider or a snake or a horse or a dog : I never say 'cheers' at the end of a conversation or email : I always have to put on lip balm and get a glass of water before i go to bed :

  1. Did you know Dom Perignon was Marilyn Monroe’s favourite drink? 🙂 I love Champagne – and I think it’s definitely worth saving yourself for! XXX

  2. Well I will be in GREAT company then! Good job on the loss again. I have my weigh-in tomorrow and am a little worried – but I always am and it’s always OK… I have stuck to the plan and that’s the most important thing.
