Thank you for this, DriGuy. I worry about my commitment to not drinking when I feel wobbly about the thought of serving alcohol in my home. I mean if I am committed to never drinking then why would this even be an issue right. But your post tells me that maybe this is just normal for anyone that has struggled with alcohol addiction and not a reflection on my commitment. This is re-assuring.
