And I don't know why. It may be that, as my case manager said, beer was not my booze of choice. THe alcohol that threatened to destroy me was vodka. I never liked beer. So I'm okay with his drinking beer. But if he drank hard liquor, that might be a temptation. I think I drank those two beers out of self pity. (Which is never an attractive emotion....) I do have a hard time whenever we go visit my mother because she cranks out the blender to make margueritas, which does tempt me. But we're going to spend Christmas this year with my sister---and she and her husband are religious about hiding all alcohol and not drinking in front of me.

My husband is a recovering alcoholic and I do not have any wine that I may like to enjoy in the fridge or anywhere for that matter out of respect for his disease, temptations, etc. Blaine has every right to have them, drink them, etc....but I was wondering how you felt about it. <br /><br />KathyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27782375.post-19358381681237986572011-03-25T20:12:52.575-05:002011-03-25T20:12:52.575-05:00Sue---thank you so very much!

But if I didn't laugh about it, I'd probably fall to pieces. (But I have to admit, that's the first time in my life that I said: "Are you sure?" when somebody at the door said it was them. Heh!
