How is your dry January coming along

Done 4 weeks it's OK, had a bad reaction to Pfizer booster half-way through which knocked out the feel-good factor for a week or so...feeling good again now though
 
I had a medical "problem" before xmas, so stopped drinking at the beginning of november. I'm someone who's drunk very regularly for 30+ years. Its been an interesting experience. I tried loads of alcy free stuff & not enjoyed it. Instead I've started drinking & enjoying a lot of coffee. Am beginning to realise I don't really miss the trappings of boozing, altho I have no regrets about all the fun its been. also saving shitloads of money, as it was my biggest expense. the biggest problem is how its affected my relationship with footy - pre-match boozing was for me the best thing, really enjoyable & a vital part of the day. without that, its making match days very different. maybe I'll learn to enjoy it as much..... but cant see it
 
Ive got to the age now where I don't want to waste a month not having the occasional glass of wine so stopped dry January when I retired.
