    I'm such a nerd, I have the MFP app on my phone and if I'm drinking, I try and log it there.

    I do the same...except after a certain point I stop logging haha!

    And thennnnnn it's champagne Sunday! A tradition that my husband and I started when the kids were little, we "close the bedroom door" and totally ignore them and drink a bottle of bubbles. It's fun, and one of the only times we really catch up...among other things.

    OH MY GOD, that is so freaking cute, LOVE :heart: that is sooooo sweet!!!!

    Hubs and his brother got the leaky plumbing patched, so for now, I have hot water. Work party is on!

    As usual it won't be a hurricane once it reaches us, just another tropical storm which we seem to have every year. Supposed to be okay tomorrow so our flight is still on time and hasn't been cancelled. Could have some strong winds and rain Sunday but hopefully everything will be okay. Pups will be with my mom but kitties are staying home and being checked on by their other grandma, hope they don't get too scared if it's bad on Sunday. Pups are fine during thunderstorms so I know they'll be fine. Still a bit worried to leave them with all the reports of people being evacuated in NY but with the hurricane being downgraded to a tropical storm for our part of the state, it puts my mind at ease a bit. I'm just panicky about the flight, I hate flying and if it looks bad when we have to take off I'll have a damn panic attack :noway: I will definitely be having a couple drinks before take off :drinker: and then hopefully keeping a good enough buzz to be okay on the plane by having a drink on the plane :tongue:

    DH and I always do Champagne Sundays. I love it, however, I may have to try for a sober Septemeber thing. (well after Labor Day weekend.)
    So the new fridge is in the living room and the diswasher is still in the garage. I will get them in and hooked up this weekend. it is still sunny and warm. That is so strange for us. It is going to be a great weekend. :happy:

    I thought about that! I still can't decide if I will have a sip on Sunday or not!

    :drinker: It's a switch to tequila the last couple of days, and the next couple. 4 drinks a night......that's better than 8-9 light beers! I feel less bloated too. I have been logging food again and confirmed that I have slipped on the nutritional veggies and fruits. I'm within my calories most times but I need to get more salad, veggies going again. Low in calories which is nice since a portion of calories are dedicated to booze!

    I can't help but think a job would lessen the during the week drinking. <Sigh> It'll happen when it's suppose to, so they say. :explode:

    Cheers!
