Hi everyone

I won a big case - which will be the biggest in my career - and my husband was delighted for me and wanted to 'celebrate' - he was like 'lets get wine' etc etc I told him he could but I'm not drinking.

He did get it (despite acknowledging he wants to have several alcohol free days per week of which Wednesday was meant to be one - but whether he drinks or not is neither here nor there for my decision to be abstinant)

I did notice though feelings of annoyance and judgement cropping up from the Beast via my AV.

Why cant he just not drink for one night! etc etc - I recognised this for what it was because even though it didnt develop into "why can't YOU/WE just drink for one night" thats where it would of gone if I'd paid too much attention to it

My AV was keen on a "if you can't beat em join em" type of argument but because I didnt buy into IT's argument, it dissipated. So other than some mild annoyance with my husband there was no burning desire to drink.

And even if there had been I know it would have been IT and not ME
