My Love Hate Relationship

I've talked in multiple other posts about when I quite alcohol and when I quit quitting. Ever since I decided to quit quitting, I've allowed myself to imbibe responsibility and in drastically smaller quantities than prior to taking about a year off. But, even with the lower quantities, I have realized something, my body and …
