Hi Tallcactus...
I came into this thread late... ahhh... the dreaded "home alone" scenario...
My first weekend home alone was when I had a little more than two months sober... I'd been in rehab for most of that time and went from absolute safety to the worst possible environment.... my own mind, alone at home...
I made it, I didn't drink, but it wasn't pretty.
Now it's fine when I am home alone... it's more than fine. I am at peace now when I am alone... I didn't have that before... just a high enough blood alcohol that I was nearly stuporous... I didn't know what peace was, didn't care.
It sounds like you are doing pretty well there! Good for you! I was gonna tell you a funny story about my day and how my sobriety turned disaster, well, for my teenage son it was disaster, into a meaningful experience for both of us , but it's late. Maybe tomorrow.
