Late Bloomer

Late to alcoholism, early to the sobriety.

All my life I have been a late bloomer except when I was born a month early.  I come from a family tree full of alcoholics so, early in my life I resolved that I could never drink.  In my 20’s and 30’s I really did not have time to drink because I was working and going to college so, my drinking  did not take off until my early 40’s—you could say I was a late blooming alcoholic.
