@Lucy: Boy, you and I are in similar situations. I equate summer with camping at the lake, beers and wine around the campfire. Of course, I am the only one in my family drinking like this...so everyone has, in the past, just let me be. The comments and innuendos stopped years ago..but I know they are there. I am in Day 1 of doing this. I guess I'm going to have to change how I look at the summer and how I look at myself in the summer...beer in hand? Or simply enjoying the world without the guilt of drinking through it.
