jmeg,
Now that it's Sunday and you're checking the forum, I want to suggest you look back at yesterday. What do you remember about watching the game with your kids? How about interaction with your son, remember all of that? Pretty nice, huh? Now think if you were doing the normal routine of drinking. Would you remember any of it? I find that when I'm not drinking, I'm so much more of a participant in life, instead of someone in a fog who can't remember anything the next day. Congrats on getting through that difficult time. Stay the course.
