Knowing his background, he has been drinkin since childhood. From 10 or 11 I assume. Beer during week is just some, 2 or 3. But weekend are a whole New story, and even he usually is not down right drunk, the beer has to be there. Now it was vodka, and I am sad. No holiday goes by without alcohol. I love this man so much it hurts, but I hate how I have to deal with disapointments with drinkin. This is nowehere close to the friend I have mentioned, but I guess alcoholism is not something you can keep at bay. Either you drink, or you don't. I don't want to be the one that has to be Hurt over and over. I know he loves us, but... Somehow the booze is stronger. And that is devastating.
