You could change what you drink sometimes for something with less alcohol but drink at the same speed so you don't consume more alcohol. I love wine but sometimes I have some Magners or Kronenbourg Blanc beer is very nice as it has a bit of citrus flavour in it.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

well I childmind and have a 15 yr old and a 13 yr old and am a lone parent now so friday night once the minded kids have gone home and the house is toy free is my time to relax .
I don't drink during the week while have kids the next day as I feel its unprofessional and not something I'd do but friday I have a glass or 3 of wine and chill out .In my defence I have no social life no man and never go out so this is me time . Oh and the ages of my kids they go to bed after me !!!!!!0 -

I know how you feel sl. Stressfull nights/days can do it to you. I have raised my time of opening therefore less goes in and dont want anywhere near the amount even on those stressful times now just enjoy it rather than drinking at speed !0
