Happy to read about your newfound freedom. I too have had major problems to stop drinking when i start. Not around the kids but if im out with friends or if the kids arent home.
Im glad i could make you laugh ( or more so my dog). She thinks she runs the house, but actually doesnt lol she is a tiny but very wise and determined little Lady. We are blessed to have her in our lives.
Very interesting what you wrote about the insula- never heard of it but will read more about it.
Have a lovely day xx
