I hope all is well. I'm doing fine. Yesterday, Easter Sun., we went to our niece's for dinner (the whole family went in the van). It's about a 2 hour drive, & the traffic was wicked on the way home. The kids got a little restless, & my daughter & SIL got a tiny bit testy w/each other. However, I felt completely self-contained. I used to drink to avoid just such emotional situations...even the smallest wrinkle would kind of unglue me. Staying sober all day allowed me to see that what was going on was not my responsibility to change. Everything simmered down (except for the occasional "When are we getting home?"). Sober is far more relaxed than drinking. No headache, no hangover today.
