It was really interesting to read this Fizzy.Thanks so much for sharing.It reminded me too of how I used to hate Easter-because on Good Friday here in N.Z all the liquor stores are closed.You can only get a drink at a restaurant.Then on Easter sunday they weren't allowed to open till 1pm.Well-I used to start drinking at 10am every day, so as Easter approached, Id start to panic.I'd have to stock up beforehand (going to different stores so 'no one would know' )but where could I hide all the bottles in the house so it didn't look obvious I was drinking so much every day?And what if I didn't buy enough to see me through till sunday at 1pm?
God-it was such a miserable existence.I am so grateful I'm not in that position now, but in another way I never want to forget what a dark place that was either.It helps me keep going sometimes.
Thanks again for your post.
Jules.
