On the nights I work, my husband does not have to hid his drinking. I work long hours and he in passed out prior to me getting home, most of the time. On the nights I do not work, most of the time, he just drinks in front of me, however, last night, he was not drinking in front of me.
Instead, he made several trips into the garage. At first I paid no attention to it, however, after several trips it caught my attention. He would go out and come back in and grab an orange or apple etc... and sit back down and watch T.V. with me. I noticed he was getting drunk.
Normally, I would have made an issue of it. However, I just grab my stuff and called it a night. Didn't say a word.
I need to take care of myself and not worry about him right now. I wish he was on the road to soberity with me, but he is not. I feel so much better today because I avoided the confrontation.

Ok, I have been looking up campsites, and its too cold, don't really want to mess with a tent, so i think I will just find a nice hotel by the ocean and spend 3 to 4 days by myself. Like a resort kind of like. Get to know my self sober. Need to get the days of work...
