[QUOTE="Star*, post: 565230, member: 4964"] Well CB.......whats done? Is done. And however you want to rationalize doing what you did? Your business. Like PUmba from the Lion King says - Sometimes you gotta put your behind in the past. And I think BEFORE Christmas Dinner gets here? Or before the day gets going? Shy or not? You are going to need to decide BEFORE that family gathering if your family is the kind that is going to keep going on and on that day about your past transgressions., and make YOUR day a living hell, OR if they're the kind that will be basically hush hush about it and have you tip toeing around on egg shells and make your day a living hell OR if you are going to just walk in the house and say to your Mom a day ahead of time "I messed up, I have no really good excuse therefore I'm not going to attempt as an adult to make one up, HOWEVER I am sorry.....and I'm not drinking on Christmas but I would appreciate it if everyone would keep their mouth shut about thanksgiving day...and let me enjoy the day as well with my family." Or however you need to word it to make SURE.....no one brow beats you with a bag of coal. YOu don't deserve that. And I would have an EXIT strategy rehearsed as well - poignant and classy. Nancy is right----you grow up watching that? It stinks and it affects your life. You've been told,,,,,,and so now you know. And Insance CD offered you an Odouls or non alcoholic wine.....Witz offered you Toastmasters. And being painfully shy isn't the end of the world. Jump in......someone ELSE in the room just MIGHT think what YOU have to say ----sober is AWESOME.....and noteworthy. For one? I admire you for coming clean about being the Thanksgiving lush....If it does happen again? Have a plan.....like - LEAVE. WIthout the kids. lol. Go home......go to bed. Hey - could have been worse........someone could have been filming you on their Iphone .........Know what I mean?? Yeah.........Hugs & Love Star [/QUOTE]
