Morning gang.

Kiki, I will be thinking positive thoughts for you. The constant exposure to alcohol and drinking is not easy, but I think it is possible to be sober with a drinking spouse. Just not easy - it's hard enough under the best of circumstances.

My wife did stop drinking a few months back for a week. She had some blood work done and one of the tests came back out of range. She had to get retested and the doc told her it would probably improve if she did not drink. Retest came back fine and, boom, right back to drinking. It was pretty easy to see she was going through some withdrawals that week - she was not sleeping much, was overly hyper, etc.

Anyway, not sure why I mention all that. I'm not drinking today.
