Happy Holidays!

We wish you all joy and serenity this holiday season! With the holidays comes many celebrations outside the rooms of A.A. Of course many of these celebrations include alcohol. As the big book reminds us, we need not avoid places where there is drinking provided that we have a legitimate reason for being there (Chapter 7, Working with Others, page 101). That still does not mean an urge to drink will not come up in these social gatherings. To help arm you with some tips on what to do in these situations, take a moment to review Twelve Tips on Keeping Your Holiday Season Sober and Joyous. And remember, you’re not alone this holiday season. If you need to talk, give us a call at 503-684-0415.

Seasons Greetings and Happy New Year from your Westside Central Office!
