Hey pal!
Just doing my intermittent check in! I see that things have got a bit worse before they got a lot better. Seriously, well done on the rehab, SO impressed with you and your family for getting through it. Things will only improve, I'm sure!
I entirely agree, cancel Saturday. Put on Netflix and get a take away or make a nice meal. Cosy up with the ones that matter in your own lovely home.
I will read back and update myself more on the sitch, but just wanted to say congrats on making a tough decision to make a better life for you and your family.

I should cancel that meal for Saturday the forecast is heavy rain and not very warm. A cold meal and diluted drinks are not the welcome home you want. Hopefully after the 17th you can eat inside a restaurant.You seem really positive and dwelling less on past mistakes. We all have things we should or should not have done to a greater or lesser degree and just have to put it behind us and move forward. Hopefully you now have the tools and the will to do that. Thursday is the start of your new life with your family and getting on top of your business. I can only say good luck and enjoy your family.1

Best of luck for Thursday the start of a new chapter with your family. I agree with others snuggle up with a takeaway and a film on Saturday, the weather forecast is dire. I must admit I like Range Rovers - my partner has one - I have a fiat panda - no comment!!2
