12 ways to have a sober holiday

There’s a little flyer passed around at many AA meetings every year, called “Twelve Tips on Keeping Your Holiday Season Sober and Joyous.” On it, it says “Many of us have enjoyed the happiest holidays of our lives sober—an idea we would never have dreamed of, wanted, or believed possible when drinking.” This definitely holds true for me. I find the flyer’s suggestions very valuable.
