Good for you Watsonc!! Next year I bet you'll be able to have company around. I know the first holidays for me I didn't appreciate being around the people that were drinking, but this year not quite as bad. I had a tad of resentment at an office party we attended because every 5 seconds we were having champagne placed in front of us BUT it wasn't the wait staff's fault. They were told to get it out for the toast. I am hoping next year to just let it sit in front of me and pick it up and toast and then set it down and drink my non-alcoholic drink. Whatever! It gets easier with time and congratulations.
I have a thing today with being much too wordy. I am sorry. LOL!
