Yeah that justification is tricky..towards the end..it was beer with a whiskey back..and then home to finish off with a half gallon of wine!! Why quit at beer...you have to give it more time Mister. You have to look at sobriety as life enhancing..positive move..not as a deprivement. And once the Mrs. catches up to your level..you will be in a real pickle. It will then become a competition as to who can grab the next drink the fastest. It gets butt ugly. Hope you can quit while you are ahead...It is a BIG mind game. Time to think differently...
