Happy Hour (at home) started earlier and earlier for me. And one glass became a bottle or two. I tell myself it's the taste I enjoy, but after 2 glasses, it's no longer about the taste, right? Hubby can take or leave his one scotch and wants me to quit. But I guess I'm angry and jealous I can't drink like him.
Anyway, Driver1, I just messed up your post that not one of the Tobers had slipped. I did. But I really want to come back and stay sober. And thought I might give y'all a little background on me, since I feel like I "know" many of you.
Enough said. Keep up the good fight everyone. May God watch over you.

And welcome Raider.
