Which of course I was. Im not sure what hurt most letting myself down or letting my wife down. Well I actually know the answer to that one. Since Im worthless it has to be letting down my perfect wife. Anyhow today is day one. Can you call it day one when you drank earlier in the day and then decided to go on the wagon. In my mind NO. So tomorrow is day one.
I think as soon as you decide to quit that is day one regardless of the specific time. Having someone so close that you do not want to let down helps enormously in my opinion as I personally would no doubt still be drinking if It wasn't for the support of my wife.
Wishing you well.
