Hi Loulou
Thanks for posting! I think we may have given up the booze on exactly the same day so this is a good excuse to make contact!!
I feel exactly as you do about associating booze with " celebrations " and " happy" times....except, in reality they often weren't. In fact I can't remember most of what happened.
I'm preparing for that by researching non- alcoholic cocktails, and have bought lots of stuff I've never tried before like Tart Cherry juice and Pomegranate juice, mixed with ice cold fizzy water or tonic. I think Ruby2 has suggested something similar about alternatives above!
It may sound cheesy but I'm thinking , intriguing tasting " mocktails" may provide me with a distraction and will probably taste fine!!!!
We CAN do this Loulou!
Take care
