    Sunday - 1.33
    Monday - 8.5 - they were light beers spread out the whole day from about 1 to 10:30. I drank them while cooking a fabulous pulled pork on the grill. The ground ginger was the zinger of deliciousness.
    Tuesday - 0
    Wednesday - 0
    Thursday - 0
    Friday - 0
    Saturday - 0

    I'm hoping for zeros for the rest of the week because I have a hell-a-ious work week coming up on Friday.

    Friday=3 beers, 1/3 bottle of red
    Saturday=1 marg, 1 beer, 2 glasses of white
    Sunday=3 beers
    Monday=4 beers

    After the Boulder Bolder, which went fine, I could have finished faster but I was in it for the social aspects! they had free michelob ultra, so I had two of those, and then went out to dinner for a green chili cheeseburger and had 2 Levity Ales there.

    As if I needed more TV to watch, I started Fargo. I like it.

    I am resting tonight, then I need a June plan, I think...

    I ended up having 4 margaritas yesterday. They were spread out over many hours...but still...Ive decided me and tequila don't mix well. I ended up crying over something stupid. *eyeroll* But at least I didn't puke (ahem..katie..:bigsmile: )

    Managed to take a good walk today and got some much needed errands done. More good workouts this week with maybe some wine is the plan. Oh..and a pamper day at the salon tomorrow.

    Fargo is weird...but I like it.
    Have a great short week everyone! :drinker:

    I'd be pretty darn happy to end the week with less than 10

    no winning streaks for me on 0s though, plan to drink tonight.

    Love the signs! We did get our flooring, it is vinyl. It came in interlocking pieces. I let my husband pick it because I was at the point that having a decision made was more important, I can really second-guess myself and then nothing happens for 3 years! It's not what I would have picked but it looks good.

    Amy, I am like that with paint color - hubs is just plain better at picking it.

    I got up this morning for the my long'ish walk. I did 6.6 miles in 1:45 so that means the absolute worst I can do for the 1/2 marathon is 3:27 hours. YIKES!! Why on Earth did I ever sign up for this??

    exhausted. sore muscles but the Bodi is getting better. He is starting to pee a little after we get him started and he is trying to pull his feet away when we mess with them and he is stronger. Progress. my arms and wrists are killing me. there is no ergo way to lift a hyper labs hind end. vodka lemonade.

    A feisty Bodi is GOOD.

    I was kind of craving an ice, ice cold corona but decided that the scale crept down and that was a nice feeling so I better keep this up. Besides, 1 leads to 2 and 2 leads to 3 and 3 leads to 4 and then I'll be sloshed. Better to just leave it alone....

    Ended up meeting the husband and a friend at a brewery and had a glass of wine. I always feel like I get the side eye when I order wine there lol. Had another glass when I got home.

    Lost another pound. Maybe another 0 tonight? But might be meeting at a Mexican restaurant tonight. I need to plan out my calories and see how it will all fit in. I'm enjoying watching the pounds come off.

    I am hoping to start my long trend of zeros since I work 48 hours within the next 5 days

    SoCal, I am with you - I like the lbs. dropping too!

    Chloe - Cranky & Crazy = wine - it's the new math

    Kim, I have to say WOWZA!! I am super impressed. You are a good girl!!!

    Monday-2 beers

    Wednesday-0

    Friday-I am thinking about a 0 :noway: but its friday so I make no grand promises. I have to hit the gym after work so that should help at least postpone drinking if it occurs!!!

    We have no idea what we are doing this weekend. A couple of weeks ago, Len made plans with his flaky cousin to go to his place tomorrow, BUT we haven't heard from him yet cause he is flaky and I hope plans do not come together, if they don't we are either going to:
    Brew a pumpkin beer
    Go to Movie Tavern to see X-Men
    or a local place for a Barrel Aged Beer event....today starts Philly beer week!!!!!

    The world could be our oyster.....

    Crazy bosses are the leading cause of week night drinking!!!!!!!!!!

    Flaky cousin DID NOT flaky out....I can't believe it, so plans are now to head there and drink mass quantities of alcohol, which means I am leaning more towards a zero tonight!!!!

    Lushes be quiet this weekend. So my oldest child turned 30 on Friday. that makes me take stock of my life. It has been pretty good so far. Bodi is slowly making improvements and Doug and I are exhausted caring for him but it is what we have to do because we love him. We are now taking turns sleeping downstairs with him so I am kind of missing my husband if you know what I mean.

    Yesterday the weather was beautiful and so I had blueberry lemonades (Bacardi wolfberry rum, fresh blueberries and diet Sunkist lemon) I had wine on Friday night. Just coping.

    Hope you are all doing well.

    Total: 9.83 - Not bad for a lush!!

    Sunday - All new computer system at work yesterday and drinking was to be had. You would think that they would have given lighter patient loads until they worked out all the kinks. Nope, that was not the case.

    So, I proved to be a cheap lush yesterday and actually knocked over a beer at Applebees - a full one at that.

    Sunday, 1 perfect margarita, 2 - 20 oz beers probably makes 5.33 drinks

    Mama, glad that the Bods is fairing well. It's OK to sneak upstairs for awhile while Bodi is sleeping :wink: :wink:
