Sel,
The summer of 2011 I attended AA and stopped drinking. Towards the end of the summer I hosted a nice dinner party. I was really proud of myself, as it was lovely and a good bit of work....something I couldn't have pulled off as well if I was drinking wine. After dinner, one of the ladies, said she honestly couldn't understand why I stopped drinking and I wasn't an alcoholic - she knew what an alkie was and I wasn't one! I poured myself a nice glass of wine, drank it, and decided to "moderate". It took me another year to get it together to quit for good. Why did I listen to a friend who brought her own bottle of gin to my dinner party??!!!!
