One Beer
Hi,
I always try to chuckle at the ridiculous things A's do and think they can get away with it (sure beats getting mad at it). My AH has to undergo a medical procedure next week and he's not supposed to take any medication (including alcohol) the week prior. Last night, after a particularly bad day, he comes home and tells me he bought "a beer" because "one beer" won't hurt. I said "OK". He opened the "one beer", a 24 oz. Budweiser. Maybe he tells the truth when he's got a buzz on and tells me he only had "two quick beers." If you didn't laugh, you'd cry.

So glad you can laugh, with me it was easy to give up drink as I was high bottom binge drinker, didn't drink daily or crave. Just 2nd or 3rd would tip me over and I would drink all night.
Same way with home made fudge, I cannot allow it in my house.
Now my smoking is different, if I have to have surgery and told to quit the cig, forget it. I can't do it. If the next one is going to kill me and I know it, I will smoke it. (Thats real addiction)
I hope he is careful and that was his last one. You are right, won't do a bit of good to disagree with them.
Keep us posted I want him to have his surgery, with no problems.
Caring Hugs to you both.

My AHs Beer are just like his lies....they just keep getting bigger and bigger.
You know beer comes in 40 oz too ? I have seen many of these sitting around the garage......he only had one or two ! lol
It really doesn't matter to me how many, it's all about his demeener.....the more he drinks, de meaner he gets.

i did something like this with a chocolate pie one time. my hubs eyeballed it when he left for work. there was one half pie left. i knew what the "eyeball" meant....he was measuring it, to see how much i would eat during the day.
well, i love chocolate pie. i was on a diet. so i cut just a sliver. and another one, and another one. and pretty soon, the pie was gone.
so i went to the bakery and bought another one, and got to eat another whole half of a pie. and he came home to a half pie that he left, and said good job, sweety, as he patted my plump rump.
