They forgot. Pour it out and remind them later.

Day 68 here and my birthday. My parents, who live 200 miles from me, are coming. I have made a vegan icecream for dessert and prepared a āmeatloafā. Looking forward to see them and taste the food.

Thatās awesome. I love their faces when they see the gifts under the tree in the morning. Itās my favorite part of xmas. I actually orderd xmas PJās for all of us but they didnāt come yet. Very disappointing. If they come, then Iāll have a new pic to post.

Having nice people to share sobriety with definitely helps. You will find your place and the kind of life you deserve 
Hopefully you can have a good conversation after Christmas. Maybe it was just a misunderstanding?? Proud of you for not drinking it!!
Well,
Itās Christmas Eve, and Iām so fucking miserable that Iām laughing about it.

Got through Christmas eve still sober. Day 63 
Tomorrow morning will be a challenge. For decades my ritual is to drink lots of champagne from breakfast ā¦ for about 4 hours solid. I will be replacing it with loads of cups of tea. So very grateful that my husband is on board and is having a sober Christmas with me.
Have a lovely sober/clean day everyone

The trapeze artist knows that the target swing will be in the right spot at the right time. But the true meaning of the performance is the artistās act of letting go, of trusting the training and trusting the other performers.
As humans, we are attracted to demonstrations of faith in action. Of course, decisions, belief and faith are only exposed through action. Will I be patient and kind in the face of judgement and disapproval? Will I leave the comfort of my fear and rituals and obsessions and proceed without a guaranteed outcome?
I believe there is a specific action for me to do each day, and I believe the Universe will give me the thought and opportunity to take that action. I ask, each morning, to have that thought and opportunity made plain to me. And I ask for the willingness to take that action, for the strength of character to do what I think and feel and believe is right. And I ask to be loving and tolerant when doing that action.
My bad days come when I know the action and the time to take it, and I refuse to do it. My good days are days of flow, when these things happen almost of themselves.
Namaste.
