Have you asked if she'd mind forgoing it (alcohol) while you are trying to get a foundation of sobriety under you?

I understand that we can't expect others to adjust to our non-drinking. But when I quit, alcohol was no longer brought into the house. My wife, who didn't have a problem, never said a thing about wanting to buy it, or drink it.

By not asking your wife to join you in abstaining, and keeping alcohol in your house, I have to think, self-sabotage.
