    DH bought Sweet Tea vodka. I haven't tried it yet but I really want to. I think I will. I came home from work and cleaned the bathrooms and vacuumed the stairs so I did do something good once I got home.

    I've been "lurking" on this board for awhile and I love it! I, too, am a "drinker" -- for me, it's a glass or two of wine in the evening. On the weekends sometimes a little more.

    My husband and I were introduced to Sweet Tea vodka last summer when we went boating with some friends. It's very good -- but be careful -- it can knock you on your butt. It just tastes like you're drinking iced tea and by the time you realize how much you've had, you can be pretty wasted. : )

    Oh, I am so thankful I found this group! My friend pokes fun at me and always asks if I'm "saving my calories for wine?" Sometimes I am. Sometimes I just drink it on top of my calories.

    And I know that's my problem. My weight would drop drastically if I could cut out those calories. I think I'll give vanilla vodka and diet coke a shot. Yum:)

    Just been catching up with the posts, hope everyone is well, there's some tasty sounding drinks being drunk!!

    I haven't had a drink since last Friday. I'm going out with some colleagues this Friday, I might drink, in fact I might need to drink to survive it!

    Good luck, Kim!!

    My mom came over to help me declutter and clean the downstairs area...it's the kids' play-room/office so we're not down there much and you needed hip waders to get through all the crap. I've had 2 s.f. red bull and vodkas today, but I also burned close to 500 calories with all the cleaning, scrubbing, climbing, etc.

    It was finally warm enough to get in the pool today..I love to swim so it felt great to change up the exercise routine.
    But holy crap, I had forgotten how hungry swimming makes me! Someone stop me from eating everything in sight!!!! :tongue:

    okay sweet tea vodka and lemonade can be addicting must tell DH not to buy anymore or I am gonna gain everything I have lost.
    I am on # 2 already. Stressing about work. my contract is up in 4 weeks. they desparately want me to stay but they can't extend the contract because of potential layoffs in the skill code and direct employees need my spot so they said they wouldn't extend and they are trying to figure out a way to hire me direct but.......that could take a long time soooo.... I have an interview tomorrow for a different direct position so please cross fingers and toes!
