....It's good to see that you decided to share with us.
I too was a daily blackout drinker by the end of my "career"
I was so naive I thought all drinkers blacked out...
I found it imperative to change my routine
especially early on. I always drank if others were.
Soooo...I stopped hanging out with drinking buddies.
How about beginning a new family tradition this weekend?
Focusing on your kids and wife would be a plan.
Something different...the Zoo? Watching funny videos ?
Roller skating? Bowling? Swimming? Picnic?
Blessings to you and your family
