196 days. Took a quick two night trip with the wife over the weekend. Dinner the first night was a big trigger, but we managed to pass it.

The next day we spent wandering a tourist area and then finding somewhere for lunch. I’m sure you all can imagine how difficult that was. She is on the same sobriety break and we both kept being honest about wanting to ‘cheat’.
