Christmas is a great time of year if you drink
and the shittiest when you are sober

In my drinking days, I took Christmas personally and had a lot of expectations which always resulted in "another disappointing, bah humbug Christmas." Once I got myself into AA, my sponsor helped me to get outside of myself by reminding me that Christmas wasn't about me. It was someone's birthday, she said!
These days I love Christmas. Two years ago I had a heart attack and got to come home on Christmas Eve. I'm glad to be here.

I'm glad you're all here, too.
