In the aftermath of our divorces, we turned to alcohol maybe a little more than we’re proud of. But hey, you gotta do what you gotta do, and sometimes that means not always having the healthiest coping mechanisms. But since then, we’ve stopped going out at much, met our significant others, and developed new goals around longevity, so our drinking habits have changed. We have new boundaries around alcohol and we’re far more aware of the things that trigger us to drink. It wasn’t an overnight change, but rather, baby-steps taken over a few years, and now our relationship to alcohol is moderate and healthy. We’re thankful to wine for being there when we needed it, and now we can drink it in a way that we feel proud of.
