My husband and I had the conversation that we need to cut down on our drinking almost daily. I finally decided that I just needed to stop because the moderation thing wasn't working for me.
He still has beer every night, he has cut down, but not stopped. I was a big fan if wine, and have 47 days sober today. It hasn't been easy, but it is getting easier.
I can't change him, but I can make changes for me. Good job so far!
