On day 20 or 31 here. I've done it for a few years and my son joined me this year.

kinda like pushing the reset button I guess.

This year has been harder than years past for whatever reason.

I think all this Rona BS is having a cumulative effect on everyone. So far 2022 has been worse for us than 2021, which was worse than 2020. We hope to turn that around.

That said, because we have been sick it was really easy to not drink. We’re social drinkers so that makes sense. Yesterday’s cessation of dry January had little to do with stress or urges. We simply decided we didn’t need to keep going. We’ve made an effort to reduce our alcohol consumption across the board all year, much to the chagrin of many of our friends. Funny how uptight people get when they drink and you don’t. Anyway, because Cheryl was riding her own bike, she abstained. And i wanted to support that, so I did too. Frankly, it wasn’t missed.

Soooooooo ... Maybe I'll have to rephrase my mantra ?? ... You can't drink all year unless you start on January 1st

Yeah, funny how that works out. You find out quickly who your real friends are.
