I will be spending Christmas day with my partners family....
I will go to my sister for the rest of Christmas, My sister has 3 kids aged 4,7 and 9 years old...
I will be babysitting them over the next few days, to be trusted with this responsibility makes sobriety so worthwhile, this trust was not there when I was drinking, I would not be interested in spending time with my family because it would interfere with my drinking.......another reason to be grateful,

Happy, safe and sober Christmas to everyone

Merry Christmas back to you!  Thank you for your well wishes.  Christmas to me means giving the best you can to ... life and living.  I mean, time for my aging parents, help with various holiday events, being fully pesent (and aware) in each moment.  At the same time, it's important for me to remember to be grateful.  Plugging into the "goodness" of the season is the best way I can think of to have a bit of sanity and sobriety.  At least, that's what I'm thinking at this moment!  I hope you have a wonderful one.
