WA
Morning, I'm in today Hope work settles down Joopsy Mr WA's big birthday this weekend. We started cutting down together and are both still AF. I was a bit anxious about the birthday, but he's said that life has been better without alcohol so far, so why stop now. He's taken a couple of days off work and is planning some long bike rides, and as he says- he doesn't want to waste the day sleeping off a hangover. Cordial and fizzy water it is |

Glad I didn't have a drink the last few days. I feel ropey enough post-vaxx.
