    Amy, I'm super jealous! Have a wonderful time!!!

    Had 0's Monday - Wednesday, but I with to Bitchy Bingo (which is held at a gay bar and is SO FUN!), and I had a martini...and 1 beer. Then came home and had another beer (or 2)...it was fun though!

    Tonight the hubby & I are going to our fave restaurant to have dinner and drinks (since I do NOT want to go out on Valentine's Day, way too busy for my liking!

    Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!!

    Had a week of zeros! First one in years. Last night got pleasantly buzzzzzzzed.
    Syd-The wine will put the smack down on your virus.
    Kate- If I remember right- you will be moving to Hawaii?
    Amy- "Down under" as in Australia? That is on my bucket list!
    Have a great weekend all!

    I had an awesome Valentines day. Friday Doug bought me some beautiful white roses(my fave) and a bottle of Moet Chandon. Then he grilled me steak and lobster and asparagus on Saturday for dinner and capped it off with warmed cognac and good dark chocolate. He hit a 10 on the romance scale. I didn't have much on Sunday. I had one Newcastle and one shot of Sailor Jerry's. The scale keeps creeping down because I just don't really have an appetite. If I started working out I bet the scale would move even faster.

    Robin, sounds like a wonderful Valentine's Day! My hubby & I had steak and asparagus too...but no lobster. LOL. That sounds DELICIOUS!

    Gary, way to go on the week of 0's!

    Syd, I hope you're feeling better!

    My weekend was nice & Valentine's Day was pretty low key. My hubby and I just spent the day together and made steak for dinner, super tasty! Although our grill either ran out of gas OR it was too darn cold for us to be attempting to grill, so we had to end up broiling our steaks in the oven, but they still turned out pretty tasty! :) Lots of alcohol was consumed this weekend, BUT I didn't wake up feeling yucky Saturday or Sunday! WOO HOO!

    In need of some 0's in my life starting today.

    Husband got a fitbit of his own so now he's more motivated to work out which pushes me too although I'm fine on my own.

    I am exhausted today for some reason so it'll be a 2 cup of coffee day. I kind of want to walk on the treadmill but I also have my P90X work out and a half hour on the bike so we'll see!

    The weather has been beautiful. I took Bodi for a long walk yesterday. His neurologist told us to push him more to strengthen his back legs. He was one tired boy when we got home. Vodka and limeade. No zeros here.

    Kate- Hawaii sounds like a great adventure! What kind of jobs will you be looking for?

    Well, Gary, I currently work as an office manager and I can do that ANYWHERE!!! Not my dream job and eventually hope to get into something different, but for now it will work. Lenny is a biologist with the state. He is looking at gov jobs and also something similar to what he does in the private sector. It will be an adventure and we are super excited!!! It is super scary trying to get it all figured out though..which is why we gave ourselves 2 yrs to get it all together...one year down, one year to go!!!!!!!!!!!! We are also saving enough money (excluding what we get from the sale of the house, cause I don't plan on touching that) to be able to support ourselves for several months, in the event finding a job doesn't happen as quickly as we'd like!

    Tonight is girls night so there will be wine however being down 7 pounds is going to keep me in line. It is kind of amazing what alcohol does do weight in regards to not losing even if you're working out hard. So I'll be shooting game for 3-4 0's a week.

    Kate...a lot of people that move to San Diego say they miss the seasons. This is the time of year I remind them why living here is so wonderful. And if you *really* miss snow..it's only an hour drive away in our mountains. My son used to brag about surfing in the morning and snow boarding by the afternoon ;) That being said..we are in a serious drought so the rain in the forecast next week is much welcomed.
    Have a great weekend everyone!!

    Syd, I will definitely miss spring and fall. Chances are we will be home in the winter most years to visit for the holidays...but that said I'm glad my parents are moving to FL, so if we split the time between PA and FL at least we won't be in sub zero temps for too long :laugh:

    Hi all,
    Hit the vodka pretty hard last night. Yesterday was just a bad day. Tonight is Friday so I plan to celebrate the fact that I made it thru the week.

    Keep on lushing dear friends.

    Sooooo being good on Thursday didn't go as planned, oops. We were good for dinner though and had a huge veggie platter and I got a good work out.

    Didn't end up doing anything Friday or yesterday because Friday I got home too late and then husband and I went out to dinner and didn't get home until 4:30 :noway:. Yesterday we went to lunch at a new taco place and just hung out which meant we came home and napped on the couch then got up ventured out into the snow to get dinner then came home and watched tv until we went to bed.

    Today we shoveled for about an hour and a half and it's the first day above freezing in I don't know how many weeks so we should hopefully get some good melting at least on the driveway which would be great because we have a sorry excuse for a mail lady :grumble: who won't deliver our packages if there is the slightest snow. We're also getting other things done so it's been a productive Sunday so far B) and I'm about to work out to make up for being a slacker Friday and yesterday.

    Shooting for a 0 tonight and then until Thursday so hopefully the scale will be down again when I weigh in this week.

    Hope everyone had a nice weekend! :flowerforyou:

    Lushy weekend, nothing new....

    FIL's bday celebration got reschedule again, so Lenny and I had a nice quiet (lushy) weekend by ourselves. It was his bday saturday, so it was nice to be able to do nothing. Last year on his bday was his gmom's funeral and this year was supposed to be for his dad, so it worked out nicely!!!

    Friday-2 margs and 1/2 bottle of wine
    Saturday-1 beer, 5 cherry vodkas with sprite zero, and 3 manhattans....to be fair we started VERY early and went to bed early too!!!
    Sunday-1/2 beer, 3 margs and 1/2 bottle of wine

    Gonna dry out for a few days for sure!!!!
