I fell of the wagon hard as well nonspecific on Friday a bottle of whisky and some beers , i went to bed thinking i would have been better drinking tea i felt that sober but i am still rough on Sunday night , back to the non alcoholic stuff for me .
I have been where you are now and know it is no fun going home to a empty home , Maybe write some music and try and win the good lady back .
It can be a bumpy road that the wagon is on ,i have fallen off many times .

I fall of the wagon every 2 weeks on a friday but it is better than the way i was years ago , every day was a whole new day to screw up then , The women came and went like cars back then staying for a couple of years then going , I actually laughed with my old collie one day about how many he had seen come and go in my life lol .
You need to eat more bud that is what finished my friend and it has left a load of people without a great guy in their life one time i bought him over fifty quids worth of food and he just watched it go off rather than eat , i gave up in the end trying to get him to stop drinking , He had to have it and told me some weird stuff he imagined while trying to come off it , luckily i have never been that bad when i quit drinking for weeks or months .
Your friends who are drinking in front of you are not helping you at all it is like blowing smoke into the face of someone who is trying to stop smoking .
When you hit rock bottom dont start digging , i am glad when the clock strikes 10 some nights and the booze counter closes , i am one determined cookie though when i know it is going to win sometimes i will go for a score draw and buy some non alcoholic stuff after 2 of those you think what the hell am i doing and i normally end back on the coffee/tea .
Do not give up on the Mrs , She will be hurting as much as you are , and as you wrote you have had a hair cut and are smartening up i think that is the road to go down .
