    Hey Lushes! I'm back from vacation and it seems you are all doing well.
    Vacation was amazing!!! The week with my family in Tarpon Springs could not have been more awesome. Key West was awesome, really wish we had more than two days there, caught some awesome fish!!!! Miami Beach, I have learned, isn't really our style, but we made the best of it!!! Got home tuesday evening and took the day off yesterday to bottle a beer and hit our favorite lunch spot. I am looking forward to getting back into our routine. Probably no gym workouts until Saturday but we will try and get some walks in the next two days.
    My liver certainly needs a break. The next two days will be zeros but saturday we are heading to SIL new house so we will most likely be drinking LOTS!!!!
    Only two days of work this week....which makes it easier!!!
    Have a great day!!!

    Got my zero last night...even though I really wanted to go out for happy hour, but Len was convinced our livers couldn't take another drink....wuss. :tongue:
    Plan was to go for a zero tonight but I need to pick up some wine for the carbonara recipe I'm making tonight, so well, you know how that goes :wink:
    Looking forward to a nice long walk tonight. The weather is just about perfect!!!
    Have a great weekend everyone xo

    love the profile pic, kate!!

    I had wine last night. It's 90+ here...we're not used to that kind of heat...so I've been kind of a slug.
    Looking forward to a relaxing weekend..no plans...which sounds perfect to me. We'll grill...rent some movies. Hopefully I'll get in some exercise.

    Happy weekend lushes!

    Great job on the all the zeros Wolf!!!!

    Friday-we decided to go to happy hour and then proceeded to drink more at home. 1 flight and 1/2 22oz beer at happy hour. 1 1/2 beers at home.
    Saturday at SIL and BIL I had beers, vodka tonics and peach vodka and sprite zero...number of each cannot be determined :wink:
    Sunday-1/2 stout and 3-4oz of port

    Not sure how the week will go but I plan on getting some zeros and getting back into the gym. Its so hard to break the vacation cycle, but the scale is up 2 1/2 lbs so I need to get it back down!!!

    Great job on the zeros everyone!

    Our son Jacob was married yesterday to his fiancé Kelsi. The ceremony and reception was held at our place. we don't have the photographers pictures yet, but this is a picture I took of the vows being exchanged.

    Lots of clean-up to do today. Now that the excitement is done perhaps I can get in some zeros!

    beautiful pic, gary! and the yard looks gorgeous! <3 it.

    I managed to exercise both Sat and Sun...the toe is at about 80% healed...still some pain but the biggest complaint I have now is that it goes numb...which is annoying..but doesn't keep me from working out.

    I drank this weekend too..but not in excess. The scale is up but I know it will probably stay that way until I get into a better routine..which probably isn't going to happen until after the summer is over.

    3 days in a row of great workouts..so I feel good about that.
    I'm going to shoot for a zero..or just 1 glass of wine tonight.
    Tomorrow is another evening at Petco Park...the baseball game means beer and lots of food. Hopefully I'll at least keep the exercise going.

    Sunday was the Bike N Brews, we went to 5 breweries, I didn't count, lots of times I was having tasters or sharing a flight of tasters. We had some tasty food trucks along the way too!

    Last night I went to dinner at Ocean Prime, yum! 3 drinks.

    Monday-16oz of wine
    Tuesday-12oz of wine
    Wednesday-12oz of wine

    Got back to the gym yesterday morning and HOLY HELL am I sore today. I wobbled out of bed to turn off the alarm and that was clue enough I needed to skip the gym this morning. I will be getting out on the trail tonight though. The weather has been so nice!!!

    We will most likely finish off the wine tonight :happy:

    Sorry Robin!! You'll get out soon, I'm sure...you always do :flowerforyou:
