Nothing like a holiday campout to give stark reminders of things to be grateful for in sobriety.
None of it looks like 'fun' to me. It looks sad. A number of people my age from my past are here too, as it happens. Universally, they are overweight.
Happy sober weekend..... Remember; sobriety is fun.... That drinking stuff? An illusion of fun that is actually just sad.
I like that last paragraph I'm going to use that thanks
