Play the tape to the end. How disappointed would you be in yourself taking the first sip? Be in the moment and take in the Holliday with clear eyes. It’s amazing what we miss when we are more concerned about drinking than what’s going on around us. Good luck! And happy holidays.

No clue. Wish I knew.
Got my pups.
We do not pick up no matter what. Then we accomplish that and know we can do it again. The first holiday season was white knuckle but hardly a thought anymore for me. Happy holidays
Personally I prefer to stay home. But was forced out for a family thing last weekend and even tho I dreaded going I went and made the best of it and ended up having a good time. SOBER😊 It almost feels like a performance or work to go out and do anything these days. I've always been a homebody but om on some next level stuff.
Using this app! 
Surround yourself with support 
Go to a meeting and call your sponsor if you have one. If you don't have one I highly recommend getting one. Meeting finder is a good app if you are traveling during the holidays. Many AA clubs do Christmas dinner.
