Man, so sorry!
A few homes I leave my gun locked in the car. Never when drinking.
Oh, just to rub it in... my company owner is very much pro 2A and I carry ALL the time when I go to the office in Texas. In fact, he often calls me into his office to show guests my Crossbreed and Ruger.

I don't carry at the gym.
I live near several state borders and one of them doesn't recognize my CCW, so not there.
Other than that, it would be an individual case that for some reason I don't think it would be appropriate for one reason or another. But, about 99% of the time, I have a full sized service pistol in my waistband no matter what I am wearing (the same one all the time FWIW). When I come home from the gym, I shower and get dressed and that includes my holster and pistol. I take it back off when I get ready for bed. I wouldn't carry it if I was going to be drinking, but I rarely drink any more.

Prayers, Hyp. I lost my father due to gun violence in 1977.I don't carry (any more) when I'm traveling by commercial airline, when I'm training in a Federal Reserve Bank or detention facility, or when I go swimming.
I didn't carry at my dad's funeral 10 years ago, and I won't carry at my mom's funeral tomorrow.
Other than that, I carry.

I don't carry as much as I want to, lately.
I don't carry to school.
The car's not working, and the bicycle means I can't stow it when I get to work.
Since I don't have a life outside of that, that means pretty much the only times I carry are my late-night jaunts to Wal-mart, the bank, and to drop off the car payment.

I don't carry when swimming or when drinking (about twice a year). Otherwise there is always a gun within reach.

When I go to Canada to visit family two or three times a year. I carry to the beach, but I lock it up in the car. And the bar, which is maybe once every 2-3 months.
Other than that, I can't think of any times a pistol is more than 15 feet from me.

I always carry. Since I got my CHL I figured with my luck the one time in my life I could possibly need it would be the time I don't have it. It has become second nature to putting on my watch or grabbing my wallet on the way out the door.
The few times I have had a couple beers while not at home I unload the gun and place it in a lock box under the back seat.
Heck, I even take my little 380 with me kayak fishing in the dry box lol. Well now that I think about it I don't carry it when wade fishing. Crap, that's how it's gonna happen lol. I guess there's worse ways to go.

If I have pants on, I'm carrying. If I'm legally prohibited somewhere, I don't carry. If I don't have pants on, hopefully I'm not also somewhere that it's legally prohibited, or things will get really, um, interesting, really fast.

No need at the beach, or taking an exercise walk around the neighborhood in gym shorts, I leave it in the car at the gun club

Everywhere but on the clock. I hate leaving it in the locked glove box, but it is there for the way home.

Out of curiously, is your church a "defense free zone"?
Interesting to hear people say they don't carry when they know they will be drinking. I am in the process of obtaining my CWP now and I always imagined that knowing I am carrying would be a blessing for me when alcohol is around because I will force myself to drink moderately.
I guess a lot of people have no interest in moderation sometimes (understandably so) so they leave the piece at home.
