And I will be 6 days sober. My first goal is to hit 7 days and then 15 days after that. I’m moving in baby steps. The hardest part is fighting the temptation. Twice already my husband has brought up buying the eggnog we both enjoy every year. We usually get several bottles. I told him I’m not drinking anymore so he only needs to buy one bottle and keep it to himself. He looked at me scared, but what can I do? I have my demons I’m fighting and he has his. He wants to drink, I don’t. Where will this put our relationship? Nobody can tell because it’s early still. It’s either going to be one of those things where the husband drinks in the home but the wife doesn’t and it just works, or he will join me at some point when he’s ready when he sees how well I’m doing. I have noticed that since I refuse to take part in the drinking he has cut back. I’m proud of him for that much because that’s never happened before. It makes it less irritating to me because he’s not wobbling around drunk or I have to put him to bed. I’m just sticking to my goals and my guns on my decision. Happy thoughts everyone! 
You’re doing awesome! My husband quit over two years ago and I had been drinking the whole time with some stoppage. Now working on fully quitting myself. His quitting was a good slow down for myself so it’s awesome that you’re making an impact. Keep it up!
Thank you. I have noticed over the past week he has been happier since I quit.
Thanks for posting this. My husband has given me the sacred look as well. It’s always so encouraging to read other people’s post that have a similar issue. I really appreciated “it’s either going to be a home where the husband drinks and the wife doesn’t or he will join you”. I think either way my husband will at least cut back as well. Keep posting updates and thanks again
Hi Ann! Like I said, I’ve noticed that my husband has been happier the past week and it’s probably because we haven’t been fighting, I’m not sluggish so I can do more and I’ve been happier. He wont admit it’s because I’m not drinking but I will.
Your setting yourself and your relationship up for better times in the future. May he see how good you feel and want what you have. Best to you and your family!!
Thank you @Force. I feel like our future will be better and can always be improved on. I can always be better and improve on myself as well. The best to you and your future too!!
