Great quote R4R!
Glad you checked in Smitty. The euphoria stage has definitely passed. Ironically because we're doing well with it, we are probably now dealing with accepting our new way of life. Different from say two months ago where we were wondering if it were even possible for us to stop.
Rough week so far. Two friends have passed away unexpectedly. Both in their early 70's. Both are leaving behind devastated partners who are also friends. Both partners are people who will turn to drinking to deal with their loss. Worried for both of them.
Dee, enjoy your break! You deserve some time away to relax
