Made it through as well, my first Sober one in well over 20 years. Amazingly also the first Christmas without dramas and fights in a long time

A nice sober Christmas. i actually enjoyed it. I usually dread it but this time was better. I had fun with the kids and family. We played scrable - I lost. Had a great dinner, and the dogs got lots of scraps under the table... the only day of the year they're allowed table scraps. Scraps of turkey for the kitties too, house cats and stray cats. Food is better when shared.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

Happily sober. Went to a brunch with friends. No alcohol served anyway.
Tomorrow is 40 days in a row.

Who knew it could actually be enjoyable without the sauce?

My second one in many years, and I wasn't mad or resentful this time - it was peaceful and serene. Yay us!

I made it too. But there was no chance of me going to the jungle anyway. Under other circumstances I would most likely be there by now tho. Luckily I have no vehicle. So for that I am grateful.
What a flipping amazing day it was today.

Great job everyone.

All natural X-Mas cheer. Much better than that ole toxic chemical cheer of years past.

No Drama here, either...unless you count the yelling from people playing 'Risk'.

So proud of this sober holiday. Yay, Us!
