Thanks for your replies! So many quick responses
When I realized how bad the drinking at become in the summer, I was shocked and obviously concerned. I thought he would have a million excuses for the empty vodka bottles in the (downstairs) closet (..left over from a party, years old etc.). Instead, he chose to stop drinking and admit the problem.
My issue now is that he isn't drinking every day. I can spend every second with him over the weekend and know when he is sober. But then, one or 2 nights during the week, there is an excuse for why he is a bit late. He isn't drunk when he comes home, but I know that he is sneaking drinks (beer, I think). I guess the issue that I am having is with the lying. If he only drinks a few days a week (and he isn't coming home drunk), should I be making such a huge deal about it? To me it is like just waiting for it to get out of control- I cannot handle the uncertainty.
I would like to go to Al-Anon but I live in a small town and really want to be anonymous...
Thanks for all of your advice!
