When M was in one of her short abstinence modes, I told friends and family that my home was an alcohol free home. They can take that news anyway they want as far as I was concerned. If that news didn't sit well with them.... well that wasn't my problem.
I remember once her Father (alcoholic) was visiting and kept a bottle of vodka in the car. He didn't bring it in the house but would sneak hits like a friggen teenager. Sad really.
Come to think of it, there was a lot of weirdness I don't miss.
