What would you think of someone drinking vodka before 9am?

Just that really. Dropped in on a relative with known alcohol issues at about 8:30 this morning, they seemed spaced out and acting oddly. I then noticed they had a glass of orange juice with vodka on the table.

As I said, there are alcohol issues but never known them to drink at this time of day until now. It's not good is it?

As a sober alcoholic, sounds like she woke up with withdrawal and has been out to get the vodka to top up. During withdrawal and until you top up it it's very hard to hold it together to an outside person.
