your a star. ive got a head cold now. had 3 in 7 weeks. i blame working in a hospital. but you make me laugh and coff at the same time.
i asked my hubby the other day. as since you started your thread, you got me thinking more. i actually said to my hubby, i think your an alcoholic. he looked me in the eye and said no.
so i asked him to define an alcoholic.
his answer was someone who depends on it throughout each day to get by.
i lost my uncle a number of years ago. he was an alcoholic . alcohol was what he lived for. ive seen other alcoholics through my work and they are just as dependant. sneaking bottles into work. smelling of it all day. dont eat, alcohol for breakfast , dinner and tea and for inbetween snacks.
my hubby has and this depends , usually 3 after work. more when its hot weather. family bbqs have not helped for the past 4 weeks. so i ve had to shelve and limit them. koz its one bottle after another. he has got rid of stupid friends who dose him up with extra pints on the bar, so he doesnt come home(in the past).
n e thing in moderation is acceptable.
ive had different periods of drink issues with my hubby over the years. its actually the worst times of his life, that he gave up.
stop drinking fro 6 months after dad died, vowed never to drink again.
laugh
and this yr in april08 , one night stand fuelled by drink and mates egging him on and an antidepressive tablet. then he stopped drinking for 3 months.
but since then , has not drank in a pub , only around me.
ohhhh arent i the lucky one.
