My final hangover...

Hi everyone,
You've likely seen me post here lately.

But this is it. I had a rock bottom moment last Tuesday which I posted about and I was already back drinking Thursday.

Then Friday through Sunday was a nice 8 beer/day binge.

My supportive wife was amazing in April/May when I had a sober month (29 days actually). I then worked on convincing both of us that I could handle a few beers here and there leading up to a beer festival. And since then I have tried to quit 4 more times but never really clued her in to that because I know deep down that letting her know I am quitting makes it real and I can't go back on it. I do not lie to her and will not drink when she knows I am quitting. It's exactly what I need but I keep not doing it.

But today I told her I am done drinking and she is her usual supportive self. So I fully expect this to be the for real moment. Rock bottom happened, wife knows I am quitting, and I am really excited about sobriety.

Thanks everyone, as always I enjoy reading everyone's posts!
