HH, thanks for pointing out how crafty alcohol can be. Like you said, you had convinced yourself that you would not overdo it on wine..... but I'm guessing once that first drink was in you it didn't matter what you were drinking?
That's what would happen to me. I would start off with a couple of beers, thinking that I am not a big fan of beer so I wouldn't drink a lot. But, once that booze hit me just a little bit, I would be off to the store to get my vodka. After all, I had a buzz started so why not enjoy it today and I'll quit tomorrow. Man, if I had a dollar for every time I said that....
That is a great story about the kids - I love how little moments pop up like that when you least expect it.
