Well .......................
........... that was different and pretty good.
Christmas Day spent sober, probably the first time I've done that as an adult.
Not that I really count myself as a proper adult but you know what I mean.
Kids had a great time, reckon I had them lots more presents this year, probably had more to spend what with me not wasting money on drink.
Spent the day eating and playing with the kids, lit some fireworks, played family games, played with the Wii we got for Xmas before watching the late repeat of Coronation St and more chocolate.
No sneaking about for extra drinks, no drunkenly spilling things and making an arse of myself.
Wake up this morning fresh, can drive the car no problems, another hurdle out of the way.
Wasn't really a hurdle when it came to it, offered and poured wine for others, just didn't drink any myself.
New Year to come now, we're away in Ireland for the week, I'd be lying if I said I'm not a little bit worried about being tempted to drink, I'm fairly confident I can do this though, I like the way things are going just now too much to go back to all the misery drinking was giving me.
Happy New Year Everyone
