Worries:
I came home on Tuesday night to a drunk as a skunk husband, which I always find happens on days I tell someone how great he is doing, and after I try to talk to him on the phone and ask if he is drunk because he is being erratic and he says NO and then I just feel weird about it all…

Win:
After a day in bed, he made me dinner and we were able to talk about it.
Me: How much did you drink?
Him: Truth?
Me: Yes
Him: 2 bottles of wine
Me: Why?
Him: I don’t know
Me: Did you buy 2 bottles and think, oh I’ll save one, or oh I’m going to drink 2 bottles
Him (sheepishly): Yeah, was going to save one
Me: Well, I think we can both acknowledge that once you start you can’t stop. And so buying 2 is no good. And drinking at all doesn’t seem great either.
Hug.

Few hours later, on the phone to his mom for his weekly Thursday quick call:
Mom: You’re tired?
Him: Yes, I was silly and drank too much yesterday.
Mom: Oh don’t be silly, look after yourself
Him: Yeah

It’s still hard for him to understand what he is like when he drinks.
But these conversations give me mad hope! That we’re on the path, it’s the consciousness I appreciate.
