I know I'm not nuts, maybe I'm just too detached from H. Maybe I don't take it seriously, maybe I take it too lightly. I don't know, for some reason it's not that big of a deal and it's not earth shattering and I'm not losing a lot of sleep over it.
It would be great if my H didn't drink, I'm probably dreaming at this point, but I am not a drinker or I should say a light drinker. Alcohol is such a big part of the culture/state that I live in that there are few activities that I attend where alcohol is not available.
My SS was giving his Dad a hard time about his drinking and H said to his S20 that HE drinks too much!! And S20 said "I'm young, I'm supposed to drink" that's the culture/environment we live in.
H has been drinking heavily for about the last year or longer. Before then it was once a month at the most. So the heavy drinking has resulted as a part of his MLC and his unhappiness.
H doesn't like that he's getting old, that he can't do the things he used to do. H needs a distraction and that may be a boat or a new toy. Expensive as it sounds, I'd rather have him fishing all the time then drinking all the time.
