Passed a test
Yesterday I had a birthday for a friend of my daughter's. I had mentioned that I don't drink to the mom. (First time we have ever hung out.) Yesterday when the wine came out they kind of became awkward and asked me if it was ok. I told her that of course it was and I poored the wine and initiated a toast with my glass of water...
when she first offered it caught me off guard but Mananged and I was proud.
I thank the tools I have gathered here for helping me handle these situations.
I had a great time and when I left, it was great to know that I wasn't driving drunk, that I wouldn't get home and want more and that I wouldnt have a hang over today. Sober life is great!
I'm so happy for my little victory. Little victories win the war.
