    Good for you :happy:

    I hardly ever drink (maybe a glass of wine at major family dinners - thanksgiving, christmas, easter, and the odd wine cooler at family bbqs - like one once or twice a summer...half a glass of champagne at a wedding). But for the most part I abstain out of consideration for the hubs (who is a recovering alcoholic - 13.5 years sober this month).

    It's not that difficult for me....I didn't drink much before I met my husband, anyway - even in college. I abhor the taste of beer, and the drinks I do like tend to be high in calories and cost a pretty penny. I prefer to not spend my calories or, more importantly, my money on alcohol, anyway. :laugh:

    I could go sober for half of October, like just the first two weeks?
    But then again, I've said that before....

    I'll do it. Honestly beer is my biggest issue and if I can just get away from it for a little while, well who knows where it can lead :) All good........sign me up.

    Was going to, but then I remembered it's my parents 40th anniversary and my dads made a special homebrew for it. And it's my 1 year anniversary and going to Paris and a friend is coming to see who I haven't seen in ages and it's a stressful month at work....

    So no.

    I'll maybe do January like normal people.

    I don't drink but could go sober from Mt. Dew. That'd be a great goal.
