I am annoyed at my wife's attitude even though it is understandable. When I came clean and quit, she just shrugged and said we've been here before. At 3 months, she would probably have the same reaction and she would be right. I get the feeling she thinks I still have been drinking. I took the checkbook to make the suggested $5 donation at Recovery Intl meeting last night (also bought a workbook) because of the way she said "uh huh" when I got cash for a previous meeting. I usually don't carry cash and all my spending comes though on the debit card.
