Monday - 0 woohoo!0

I'm having wine...and doing 0 exercise. I just needed some quiet time to myself, which basically means I've been a lazy bum this week.
The son is coming home from the g/f's tonight and the husband will be home Friday...so I'll get myself back into a routine.0 -
Great job on the zeros guys. None here but working on moderating.

Monday - 1 Bell's Two-Hearted ale and 1 Labatt blue. I'm considering it a win because we had 3rd row tickets last night to the Red Wings hockey home opener. In the past, there would have been excessive amounts of alcohol consumed. Plus the Wings won which was awesome. The seats were so good I didn't want to ever leave but sadly I had to...

I think 2 might be the end of my streak, Gary. I used some wine in my sauce for dinner tonight so I have an open bottle just sitting there.

Syd, I am also thinking my streak might be over......CRAZY day, not necessarily in a bad way but I feel AMPED BABY :laugh:0

Syd -can't take the chance that an open bottle might go bad!
Monday - 2 beers
Tuesday - 2 glasses Bordeaux
Wednesday - 0!0 -
Yeah, I took care of that open bottle.
0 tonight0 -
Wednesday was not a zero. Going for moderation the rest of the week. Syd, amcanzo, and Kate all seem to be doing grrrr-8!0

I'm back! We had a great time. The hotel (Marseilles) was awesome as was the food and drink. We started drinking by lunch each day, but I felt I moderated pretty well. I remember dinner each night. Drink and/or dancing after/walk home....maybe not AS much, but still. Much better than last trip all around.
But there will be no 0's this week. We were off Tuesday so had lunch (drink) and movie then hot tub (drinks). Yesterday I had friends over in the afternoon, and tonight we have tickets to a show. Then it's the weekend. May take some days off next week. Or maybe not. I haven't been sleeping well, so maybe a little drying out could help.0 -
Warning Novel Ahead

Hi all, Where do I begin? The trip to Ireland and London was a blast. A few hiccups along the way. It started rough. Our flight from Seattle to JFK was delayed for 4 hours because the flight attendant crew decided not to show up. Fortunately we were able to get rerouted to a different airline and flight thru Newark and we got to Dublin at the same time we were scheduled to arrive. Our luggage however went to Chicago and then to London. We didn’t reunite until 10:00 Sunday night. The only other bad thing was that the Old Jameson Distillery was closed for renovation until March of 2017 and that was one thing I really wanted to see. The rest of the trip was absolutely wonderful. Great time with my daughter and made new friends. London was good. The two shows we saw were great. I started coming down with a cold Saturday night and we left Monday so the flight was uncomfortable but it didn’t really dampen the vacation.0

Now, I get home Monday around 2:00 and find that Doug had stayed home from work because he was sick. He hadn’t kept anything down since Friday. No water, no food. I went to work Tuesday with a full blown cold. I decided to stay home Wed. to rest. However, Doug went to the clinic because he felt really bad. I get a call that they are taking him to the ER. So much for rest. He is in the ER and they treat him for dehydration and alcohol withdrawal. He hadn’t had a drink since Friday. They want him to stay. He says no. I have to make sure he can keep stuff down and pee. So I don’t go to work Thurs so I can watch him. Water stays down, all the plumbing is functioning and he finally ate a little tiny bit of applesauce. So today I am at work.0

We have decided it is time to get serious. It is Friday so I will have wine tonight. But starting Monday the zeros are my goal.
P.S. I missed you guys.0 -
Robin we missed you!! Sounds like your trip was a good one but whoa to all the illness upon your return. Glad your husband is getting better...and you too. Welcome home!
I got a 0 last night but ate every carb in sight.
Maybe some wine tonight if I get in some exercise. Our 90+ temps should be cooling off.
Oh and dear baseball gods...let the Cubs win this weekend or I will have a very depressed husband. Amen1
