On the positive side, we go on holiday tomorrow for a week by the English seaside....

Just wondered, how does everyone deal with holidays? The last time we went away (feb) I drank and undid the good work I'd managed in sobriety up until then. I found the change of routine / surroundings a little hard to deal with then.
I'm certain I won't let the same happen again, just feel a little apprehensive when I should be looking forward to getting away and enjoying family time...

Hope everyone's weekend is being good so far
Heh NGB,

Just think of your time in and thank God for your sobriety. Look up and look all around you and realize how wonderful it is to be where you are physically and mentally. Enjoy the simple beauty of your surroundings and take them in. Just don't pick up the first drink. Drink in the fresh moist air, the warm sun on your body and how your life is becoming better everyday. Have fun and know you are in a good place.
