    Hey, peeps...I should be pretty much good for the rest of the week. I have to say that I am happy with the two days a week I allow myself to super indulge....maybe, I'll try to cut back on the quantity; but,not for know...I feel like I've reigned it in for now.

    Summer could be another story....

    I purposely FORGOT to buy beer last night @ store. I'm really glad I did-- by the time I got home the kids had me so frustrated I could of downed a 6 pack in no time. Hubby was making him a drink & asked if I wanted one. I did WANT one, but said No last night. Tonight however, I doubt I'll be as reluctant to pass up anything! LOL

    That was a good strategy!!! Don't you kind of feel happy in the morning when you don't drink alcohol the night before? I like getting up in the morning with a sharp mind, not dragging and not being bloated. But, then, I'll drink 8 beers on designated drinking night. Why, why, why??? I have to figure out why I prefer one over the other.

    Oopies....had 8oz of wine last night! Was supposed to be a dry evening, but I ate less than I had accounted for so I decided to make up for it with wine instead of food!
    Only a total of 14oz of wine Mon-Fri so not to bad.
    Tonight we are going out for a bit.....2 beers and 2 cocktails is all I'm gonna have. Gonna try and be good tomorrow too, maybe 2-3 glasses of wine. And sunday...well sunday forget about it :drinker:
    Happy Friday Everyone!!!

    I started drinking a glass of wine last night, but it got warm and I didn't want it, so I only had about 2 sips.

    Sunday=1
    Monday=0
    Tuesday=0
    Wednesday=2
    Thursday=.25

    I don't think I'll drink tonight. Coaching the boy's soccer game tomorrow and doing it hungover (like last week) sucked!

    Caved last night. 7 glasses of wine.

    However, I had 6 glasses of water while having the wine which put me over a gallon for the day, so no sluggish feeling :smile:

    Going to my Gramma's for dinner tonight to see her before she goes on vacation. We always have wine when we go there. My boyfriend just laughs when my Gram, mom and I get silly from too much wine haha.

    Happy Friday everyone, enjoy :flowerforyou:

    The water between drinks helps...I just forget the water!

    I'm running a low-grade temp...99.7. .3 more and I'm going home...to die. I need to bleach bomb my house or something. Boo (my son...that's really not his name.) is sick at his dad's. My hubs was sick this past Sunday/Monday, I was sick last week. Ugh.

    A glass of water per drink helps me, depending on what I'm drinking. If it's ever hard stuff I need more water. But I drink about a gallon of water a day anyway but last night in I downed 3 glasses at once, twice in between glasses of wine.

    Feel great this morning, unlike last weekend when I had the same amount of wine but no water :frown:

    Thanks Kblue, and yes foodie, it's hilarious. My Gram pours a giant glass for herself, about 7 oz haha and she'll get laughing at something and it looks like she's crying or in pain. It's always a good time and I look forward to it so much :smile:

    It's actually one of my boyfriends bestfriends birthday today and he's going out to Hartford to the bars. Nothing wrong with it but my boyfriend and I are younger than him and don't even like the bars anymore. I asked my boyfriend if he wanted to meet up with people after dinner but he'd rather come home and veg on the couch haha. The cruise however will be another story :drinker:
