    Not much going on this weekend? We have a 5k tomorrow morning for our friend's mother who passed away from colon cancer 4 years ago. Other than that????? Beer, obviously, beer, we might go down the basement and move some of our things around and make sure everything will fit in our shipping crate...but mostly beer :wink:

    Awww kat. I'm so sorry :'(

    Back from the beach...so amazing! My profile pic doesn't do it justice. Our room was right on the sand. The waves were huge! (Remnants of a hurricane in Mexico) the guys enjoyed the ocean...I had to just watch since my shoulder is still healing. We ate great food and had plenty to drink. I will be avoiding the scale for a while.
    It's hot as hell here so I'm trying to find motivation to exercise. I'm thinking I won't find much of a routine until next week.
    Happy weekend lushes!

    I drank Washington Red Apples all weekend. It was really good. I didn't overdue anything. I went shoe shopping for my NYC trip. I am so excited.

    Shoe shopping FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Had a lot this weekend.
    Friday-2 vodka tonics
    Saturday-all the beer. I was so hungover yesterday....it had been a very long time since I was that hungover. It didn't stop me from drinking though...needed it to make me feel better.
    Sunday-1/2 bottle of cider, 4 manhattans and a small glass of wine!

    I am going to rack up a few zeros this week.

    I'm back! Looks like everyone is doing great.
    Kat- sorry about your kitty. :(
    We had a great canoe trip, 72 miles in six days, that includes about 7 miles of portages. Lots of work but great scenery. Posted some pics on my profile page.
    Have a great week everyone!

    I drank all weekend (Thursday - Sunday...and Wednesday too) but I never got hammered and never felt bad. I was a little tired and headachey for a little bit Friday but was fine the rest of the weekend. Going to rack up at least 2 0's this week and try to take it easy this weekend.

    I drank too much wine yesterday for my MIL's birthday. 0 today and probably a few more this week. Lots to get done before the son heads back to college on Friday :(

    Hello lushes!! Returned home from San Francisco yesterday & I was so sad to leave. We had a wonderful vacation! Seeing everything in SF, drinking on the beach on Friday in Santa Cruz, Alcatraz on Saturday & then Napa on Sunday. Can't believe I had to return to real life this morning, it sure was hard getting up for work! Now it's time to detox my body from all the delicious food and alcohol that was consumed!

    I am so excited. Holly(my youngest daughter -29) flies up from Vegas and we meet at the airport to fly to NYC. And then the adventure begins. We will have a great time. I don't usually drink as much when I am around my kids but we shall see. Hol and I have very similar spirits so when we are together with no one else around to tell us how off center we are, we have a really great time. I get her and she gets me. I honestly wouldn't care where we were going but NYC will be fun. No zeros in my future anytime soon.

    I am so ready to get on that plane. Doug is so worried about me travelling that he is taking all the fun out of the anticipation. :grumble: I know I will have a great time. I just wish he could be happy and positive about it instead of fretting every worst case scenario :devil: he can come up with. I will be ready for a drink when I get to the airport. :bigsmile:

    Nice job on all the zeros! The only zeros I have gotten are when I accidentally fall asleep rocking the baby and don't get to have my nightly wine! A 22 month old and a newborn require drinking!

    Good job on the 0's!! I've had wine but just 1 glass. Almost finished packing up the son. He's taking his own car up this year (grandma gave him hers...she finally stopped driving) so this is the 1st year I won't be helping moving him in/setting up his apartment. I'm sad but definitely doing better than previous years. Partly because I know he'll be fine and have a successful senior (!!) year. Time flies!!

    Tuesday - a Schlafley pumpkin (holy crap! almost 300 calories, but 8% so there's that), about 2 oz of wine and a small vodka cocktail = 2
    Wednesday - 32 oz Bells Oktoberfest, 2ish big glasses of wine = 4

    I have a night meeting tonight so I may have a beer when I get home. Or maybe a dirty martini.

    I realized that I did drink on Sunday AND Monday. This week has completely thrown me off!

    Sunday - WINE, at like 5 different wineries! So yummy.
    Monday - 1 beer at the airport
    Tuesday - WINE
    Wednesday - 0 (OMG what is this?!)
    Thursday - will have beer @ beer club...and then tomorrow is Friday :)

    Maybe a 0 will happen next week....probably not though.

    Wednesday - 4
    Thursday - 0 WHAT?!

    Got home around 7:30. Ate some leftovers. Didn't really have the calories for one of my very caloric beers, so opted for a Popsicle instead.

    The scale is been stuck for the third week in a row. :# I need a kick start! Or to quit traveling and drinking a lot every weekend.... October will be the month of festivals though. I just need to up the workouts. Have a great weekend!
