It’s hard / January 2023

I never considered myself an alcoholic. But towards the end of 2022 I drank pretty much every evening. Not much, but a glass or two yes.

I didn’t like that. Because, in the end, it’s poison. No matter what they say.

I have tried to go without alcohol a few times before. But after a few weeks or months, it always slipped back in.

So this time I’m going to try a different approach. I do like a good beer or glass of wine, especially with friends. So I’m not going to go without. I’d like it to be something for special occasions, not something regular. Drink responsibly as they call it.

To keep myself honest, I’ll keep track of it. And the reasons. Or excuses.
