It must make it a lot harder for you to stay sober with a beer staring at you from the fridge! I assume the alcohol in the house belongs to your spouse. Would it be possible for you to have a discussion about how much harder it makes it for you having to see alcohol? Perhaps not, but it's worth a try. I'm fortunate that my GF doesn't drink either, so there's no alcohol in our house. I shouldn't take that for granted.

I hope you were able to fight the urge to drink. I found that fruit juices helped my with my urges early on (grape, apple, etc.), or something like peach iced tea. That's just what worked for me, but I thought I'd throw it in there.
Thanks for this!
