    Yesterday was national wine day. As a lush, I celebrated properly.
    My goal is to not completely go crazy with the drinking in Laguna Beach, not kill my crazy cousin and to get in some walking/exercise on the beach.
    Wish me luck!

    Mon - 0
    Tues - 2 small glasses of wine and a beer
    Wed - 3 glasses of wine and 2 ciders
    Thurs - going to try for a 0

    I'm finding this week when I drink I wake up anxious in the middle of the night. Not fun. My goal is 0 tonight and not plan anything and keep it moderate tomorrow. Saturday we have a friend's 40th birthday party, but will have our kids and it's across the river, so we'll be leaving early-ish. Sunday will be festivating and drinking. Probably some grilling and drinking Monday too.

    I have been very lushy and not getting to the gym very often the last 2 weeks. Although I'm pleased I managed a 0 yesterday. My aunt passed away last Monday so I have been planning the funeral with my sisters as we are the closest family and my mum isn't able to manage it on her own. I've decided until after the funeral on 6th June anything goes and I'm not going to give myself a hard time about drinking

    Nice work on the 2 zeros Ashley...I was happy to get one...might try for another 1 next week :wink: AND my boss is off too!!!! I got in early so I'll be out early!!! CAN NOT wait for the long weekend. We were gonna go camping for a night at Haleakala National Park for some sunset, star gazing, sunrise action BUT my "friend" came to visit super heavy this morning and that will make camping much less fun, so I think we are going to hold off until next weekend, so this weekend.....aquarium? kayaking? fishing? beaching? Who know but definitely drinking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :drinker:

    Have great weekend everyone!!!!!

    I was proud I managed a 0 yesterday but still woke up this morning feeling like I'd been run over by a steam roller. Where's the justice in that! So I decided I'm going to drink some red wine tonight. Might as well wake up feeling rubbish for a reason.
    Hope everyone has had a good weekend. I'm very lucky to have some extra time off work so not back until Wednesday. There's so many odd jobs I should be doing around the house but I keep finding excuses not to :D

    Hello lushes! Back to work after a great long weekend.

    Friday night we took it easy. Ordered delivery, watched a movie, had about 4 drinks and went to bed at 10:30. Saturday did coffee and farmers market and planted our garden. 40th birthday party where I drank a lot of sangria and we stayed till about 10. I was feeling pretty good, but was asleep by a little after 11 so Sunday felt fine. Sunday we walked a ton: walked across the walking bridge to Indiana, then the kids played at the spray ground back in Louisville. Came home and went back out walking in the neighborhood. Kids fell asleep in the stroller so we sat on the patio and drank beer and ate pizza. Friend came over; I drank a bottle of wine and fell asleep watching a movie. Yesterday we had lunch with the in laws and split a pitcher of margaritas. I had a double vodka soda and a beer at home by the blow up pool and then miraculously stopped drinking around 5:00.

    I'm going to try for 0's till Friday. We'll see. Eric is still not feeling great, so he's not been wanting to drink that much.

    Despite the kids being here for the long weekend- it doesn't appear that I gained any weight- that's a big win in my book. Good job on the moderation you guys! Hope to do some of that moderating myself this week, perhaps even a zero.

    Hello Lushes! It's been a wild week and couple weekends with my brother and his wonderful girlfriend visiting and a lot of fun with friends and our kiddos on the beach and bbqing or going out to eat. Very lushy, absolutely no zeros but not too bad on the eating side of things. I'm sure I gained a pound or two but it was worth it. Just about time to get back on track but maybe a couple drinks tonight... ;)

    Hi All!!

    Yvonne, sorry to hear about your auntie!! Best of luck to you and your family.
    Kate, house hubby sounds like a dream.
    Ryz, good job!!

    I have been consistently lushy!!

    Sunday went to a farm wedding and pig roast which is a first for me. I tried not to look at the pig because with the head on it, I feel bad. I drank too much beer and that's the way it goes.

    Monday, 0
    Tuesday, 0

    I have to get ready for this party and I am feeling like it's crunch time.

    Cheers!!
