Worked a 12 today and have another tomorrow. I was tired from the time I got up, kind of draggin'. So, I'm going to bed for a good night's sleep.
Hopefully tomorrow will be a 0...but, it will also be day 30 -
sipping? I wish I could learn that skill. yesterday was a lot of vodka and diet sunkist lemon. My favorite and I did not sip. today is champagne in the morning and we will see what the rest of the day brings.0

That sounds good robin! I may have to try it.
White wine last night. Still have some left in the bottle..which is always a good sign:drinker:
Beautiful day here today. Might get some swimming in. Grilling some chicken later so I'm thinking there will be drinks.0 -
Checking in! We have free Internet because the fiancé has us signed up for the presidents club or something. I never used to be able to just sip but once I finally made the connection between drinks and the time in which they are had and how that connects to hangovers I've tried to train myself. Getting good at it. Friday however, I was upset and anxious about flying so I had a lot. Saturday I had two screw drivers before the flight, a double vodka diet coke on the plane and then of course drinks at the hotel. Wasn't a super early night but I knew it was time to stop fighting and go to sleep. I had started a bottle of champagne before going to bed so yesterday morning I finished it by having two mimosas
Then we went out on a boat with one of the guys Kyle knows through business and had some beers. Came back and drank in the hotel bar and met some friends one of which kept calling me Liv Tyler haha, I've gotten it before and she's beautiful so I'm totally okay with that Since I can't sleep without a fan and the hotel air system won't stay on I decided I was going to drink enough to sleep through the night since the fiancé has meetings all day today anyway some can just bum around. Only problem is dealing with the hangover for the time being, however my body seems to for whatever reason be processing alcohol better because I started Saturday still a little drunk/hungover but was fine later in the day so we will see how today goes. Thinking I'll go down to the hotel bar at some point and get their delicious Cuban pork sliders and have some drinks :drinker: Hope all my lushes are well! I'm making up for those being "good"

I got off at 3 yesterday and was super lushy. There will be nothing for the rest of the week.
Kat, I need a fan as well. You should look into getting a little travel one.0 -
Well the rest of Sunday was steeped in pain. I stepped on something ( I think it was a blackberry branch burried in the grass) and my foot bled and then burned all day. It continued to be very painful all night. Needless to say I barely got in 1200 steps yesterday. My foot is also huring because I was holding my foot so tense and strange because it hurt so much. I would have gone to the doctor this morning but I have my interview so I had to come in. I hope I can keep half the pain out of my face and do well on the interview. I am just so pissed that I hurt my foot as I was really getting back into the walking. At least I didn't eat much yesterday since I was just sitting around all day. I finished the champagne and sipped (yep, sipped) a small vodka with the fruit from my champagne.0

This whole sipping thing is definitely something I need to learn. Way too lushy this weekend especially Saturday and I wasn't super hungover, but was very anxious (which is usually a side effect for me when I drink too much). I always feel like did or said something stupid.
Anyways
Monday-Wednesday 0
Thursday- 10 oz cab

Saturday- half a bottle of skinny girl margarita and god only knows how much pinot grigio my best friend and I finished off a box
Sunday- about 6 miller lites
This week definitely nothing until at least Friday!!!0 -
I definitely will get a travel size when we get home. We travel so much so I don't know how I haven't gotten one yet. Cruises we usually drink enough each night so I sleep, not well, but I sleep.
So sorry about your foot mama lush, hope it feels better soon :flowerforyou:
So the hotel just had a drill for their emergency alarm system. I apparently misunderstood the part where they were testing so when it said there was emergency and we need to leave I freaked. Threw on some clothes, grabbed my bag and left but there was a guy right there and he said don't worry it's just a drill. So I went back to my room and I was shaking, fiancé is aleady doing business stuff so he isn't here, I was shaking so badly, I don't even shake like that on turbulent flights. Needless to say it was time for a drink so I grabbed a beer out if the mini fridge and pretty much just downed it. It's not even noon and it's been an eventful/lushful day haha.0 -
This week definitely nothing until at least Friday!!!
Amen to that!!
Robin, your foot sounds like something I would do. I hope you feel better soon. Even more, I hope you knock their socks off in the interview.
Kate, sounds like anniversary was a great weekend to be had.
I bought 6 boxes of wine for the party and it was just at $100.00. My sister thinks it's too much wine to be had at the party. Now, I am curious of how much of it will go.0 -
there is no such thing as too much wine to be had at a party. 0
-
Fri - a beer
Sat - 7 beers
Sun - 3 beers0 -
Yea I agree you can never have too much wine......Can't say I have ever been to a party and heard someone say "WOW they really have too much booze here" :laugh:0

I agree, sipping? I can't even drink my champagne in a pretty champagne flute.....................too many refills!!!!!0 -
Okay, hold on to your hats. I actually have a zero for last night. Yep a big fat NOTHING! on a Friday. What is the world coming to?
I hope everyone had a great Friday.
Are we going to have to get a new "President"??????0 -

Went down to the hotel bar and had lunch as well as a few beers. I then went back to the room and proceeded to nap Fiancé came back in between meetings where he got a nice jacket as well as a new baby for our Sfinx. That's Jinx's nickname, one of many, anyway he loves stuffed pup toys which we call babies because he acts like a mother with them, it is too cute. There is one that he never destroys which is a Christmas penguin from his aunt holly (my best friend since second grade as well as moh) that I took with me but now he'll have this nifty little monkey thanks to his dad I am now currently sitting in the Gold Lounge having wine just waiting for Kyle to get back from his dinner, then maybe we can grab a drink or two at the bar and then head to bed. Back home tomorrow and though it wasn't even vacation it has been very nice getting away for a little while 0

Weather is not great here which makes me even more nervous about flying. Fiancé telling me not to worry and that they can pretty much take off in anything doesn't help exactly sooooo I think I need some liquid worry relief. Looks like we're getting out before Bermuda gets a storm. I feel bad for those on vacation here right now, it's been rainy and cloudy the whole time we've been here and looks like it will be for awhile longer with this storm coming.0

Safe flight back Kat!!!
Monday-12oz of wine
Tuesday-???0 -

Haha zip. Gin seems to be just about the only alcohol I can't stomach.
0 yesterday. Ill shoot for 0 again tonight but I'm gunna swim today and I usually love to enjoy some wine after being in the sun/pool all day so we shall see.
Is it the weekend yet?0 -
Well, I'm on a super lushy streak and it doesn't look like it's going to let up anytime soon with the holiday weekend approaching. Lots and lots o' beers every night since Friday.0

Hi Lushes!
Kat - Safe journeys to you. I don't care for flying either. I never used to mind it, not sure what changed. I am very superstitious and always have tomato juice on a flight for some reason, makes me feel better. I never drink it on the ground unless it is in a Bloody Mary.
Zippo - Cute cartoon.
Sid - Nice zeros. Daughter stopped by yesterday and we went to the pool (we live in a swim/tennis community) and I thought of you, except we got there and the pool was closed because the county inspection wasn't completed, so we just lounged.
Monday - 1 glass of Cab which I sipped. Wanted more but didn't want to uncork a new bottle.0 -

I am right there with you on this one. can't stand the stuff.0 -
Diana (or anyone else here)..next time you get in the pool, lemme know if your HRM works.
I lose my signal as soon as I go under water..it's annoying as hell :grumble:0 -

When I busted my knee last summer I was swimming for cardio and I always lost my signal and then it was messed up for a while...had to get a new strape!0 -
ok..well that makes me kinda feel better in that I'm not the only one who can't get theirs to work.
I didn't have to replace it or anything..I just lose my signal.0 -

What model do you have? I have never worn mine to the pool, not much of a swimmer, I can... but I look stupid because I don't like getting my face wet. I can barely take a shower without getting water up my nose. Always has those silly nose plugs on when I was a kid.
Hubs just made omelettes for dinner...YUM, I had mine with a Bloody Mary, double YUM!0
