Thanks for the feedback! I know I cannot avoid it forever, I just wanted to get some time sober before exposing myself to many temptations. I have avoided some ice fishing trips and a annual poker game. I miss hanging out with my friends but I could not envision watching 3 guys drink in a fish house for 3 days. I like the idea of showing up after happy hour. I have been working on my social anxiety issues so I'm hoping i have an easier time making some new friends who don't drink.
Have a great weekend!
