    Hi all! Still here. I officially go back to work in 8\3\18. As long as the doc agrees on Monday. I miss you all and I am getting better.

    Look at my cute grand niece (and husband and son too)!
    Big family gathering yesterday. I drank champagne :|
    Did manage to exercise last week. Guilted myself into it after seeing Gary and Ann log so much! 2 weeks until our vacation. I'm going to try to keep it up!
    Hope all is well with you lushes! :drinker:

    P.S. Sorry it's so big, I'm too lazy to figure out how to resize

    Glad you're feeling better Robin!!
    Syd - I love your new pictures :)
    Gary - how was the wine?? ;)

    My daughter and I drove out to Grand Rapids, MI for the color run this weekend. My first 5k :)
    We also did an escape room - super fun! and a murder mystery dinner. We had a great time. My downside - once I was back home, drank 2 heavy duty Founders beers (10.8% :o:# ) and had not yet eaten...oh boy! Kind of rough ending to my weekend, but other than that - great weekend!!

    The wines have been good! I prefer them over ice, not sure if that breaks wine protocol but with the temps in the 90s iced wine just sounds best! Still trying to get on track, mostly I have to not get down on myself for not doing my best.

    Congrats on the 5K Ann! I love the pic you posted with your daughter <3

    Gary, I do ice in wine during the summer too. It's refreshing and (in my mind anyway) I drink less that way. No getting down on yourself! If today didn't work out the way I had planned I always tell myself tomorrow will be better. It almost always is :)

    ACK! It's August already. Hope everyone is doing well.
    I did ok this week. Managing my diet (and booze) but I definitely could be exercising more. I've got all next week to be good and hopefully drop a pound or 2 before starting vacay.
    TGIF lushes! :drinker:

    Back at work. Back to the grind. It is too hot up here to do much in the afternoon. Doug goes in for shoulder surgery on his left shoulder on Thursday. LimeAde and vodka with ice has been my drink of choice lately. I still haven't gained back the 5 I lost on leave. That is encouraging.

    Hope Doug's shoulder surgery goes well, Robin! I'm sure you all remember how much I b!tched about my shoulder. Not fun.

    Thanks, Gary! It's been in the 90s for about a week and I'm ready to cool off at the beach. Been pretty good and dropped a pound which I'm sure will come right back. But I do plan on lots of morning and evening beach walks...maybe that'll make up for the booze and food and limit the scale damage.

    What's everyone else up to? :drinker:

    Doug's surgery went well thank you for the well wishes. I have been doing a lot of top down driving lately. The sun is out so much this year. Although there were some torrential rain showers on Saturday. It is supposed to be back to sunny all week.

    Aloha all!! Gosh I have gotten to be pretty crappy about keeping up!!! I blame work 😉
    We have been pretty consistently drinking most days of week. 2-3 a night but still making it for work outs so I don’t feel too bad!
