Did you start other hobbies after you quit drinking?
I used to brew beer and loved it. When I quit, I sold everything and started making ice cream. Loving that too! My daughter is lactose intolerant and this way I can make delicious dairy free ice creams.
Your kids will benefit from it as well. I remember from my childhood that every party involved alcohol. So I thought that you can't have a party without.
I'm a dad as well and so happy to be sober for them.
