An unexpected Anniversary.

Well 2 years ago it would have been unexpected. 2 years booze free. Seeing as my old friend(40 years drinking) was killing me it wasn't much of a decision to leave it behind but I've actually stayed on the wagon.

I don't miss drinking very often. There's the occasional urge when certain things coalesce. My son comes for the weekend, Christmas and Thanksgiving meals, etc. It's TG this weekend and my son is here but no desire to drink. I'll have a glass of non alcoholic wine with my meal. Maybe a few Becks with football this weekend. They are a most accommodating beer company:



There was a week this summer that the urge was on me all the time but when the option to not drinking is death it's pretty easy to stay off the stuff. All my friends and family will be celebrating that along with Thanksgiving. So...

But, Isn't it actually off the wagon?

Good job,quitting something like drinking or smoking takes strong willpower,obviously you have the strength to do it

Congratulations! Oh and...Happy Thanksgiving! Keep up the good work!

Congrats. Did you get cirrhosis of the liver?

Yeah. The liver disease was self inflicted.

Ok, so it took me 3 weeks to discover your thread... But yeah... Two years on the wagon! That's great to hear, Trep.

Here's to many more years sober!
