BJ's Holiday Tip

In my early years of sobriety I would hang out at the 24-hour AA group. Today I still do that so that I might be there for someone else who was having problems staying sober during the Holiday Season.

I have found that hanging with sober people during this time of year is the best thing I can do and today I enjoy doing it. Thanks for asking my input.
