Happy_Holidays!
Well I will not be back until the 28th so I just wanted to wish you all a safe, sober & clean HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!!
For those of you new to sobriety, keep in mind that one of the greatest discoveries many make in sobriety is what the holidays are REALLY about, it really is not an excuse to get really messed up, it is a time where families & friends get togather to celebrate what they may, stuff thier faces, & enjoy each others company.
I discovered once I sobered up that the majority of people DO NOT drink more then 1, maybe 2 drinks on a Holiday, some how I thought everyone got drunk, turns out I was hanging with the minority that were getting drunk.
