Two for me tonight made it through without a drop!! I really appreciate the food at parties so much more now!!!

My company party is almost 400 miles away, so no party for me! Don't really want to go to a party with people I really don't care for anyway, especially sober. :)

I savored every last morsel at my party & even enjoyed a "sliver" of dessert. Never would have had dessert as a drunk - it would've just gotten in the way of my buzz. This week I had just a smidgen. As an added bonus I can even remember how good it was!

Went to a nice Holiday party tonight hosted by some friends who have one every year. I seriously think I had more fun by not drinking compared to previous occasions. It was good to be out socializing. Maybe I've been isolating myself more than I realized.

I noticed no one else was glassy-eyed power drinking as I've done in years past.

I went to 2 holiday parties tonight also and succeeded to stay sober :) I definitely had anxiety before going to both of them, but once there, I realized it wasn't so bad after all. It is what you make it! :)

Partied sober last night also!

Same here, enjoyed the food, as I wasn't saving myself for drinking later on!! :)

A successful night!!
