She drank the glass with breakfast and poured herself another. By the time she'd gotten Sean off to school (second grade) the edges had been taken off her thoughts and the world seemed as it should be: not too real, but real enough.

About This Quote

Drinking a glass of wine or beer before breakfast can help one get over the previous evening's drinking and to feel more refreshed. When we drink too much alcohol we often become depressed and we don't feel well in the morning, which makes us want to drink more to feel better. Drinking before breakfast can get rid of that depressing feeling and allow us to get on with our day.
