    Liquid dinner tonight :heart:

    My fav!

    Goose all thru the day yesterday but I was really working the fitbit. I got over 11,000 steps and climbed 16 flights of stairs. It seems to be motivating me.

    Today Doug and I are making salsa and then having shrimp and steak fajitas for dinner so that means the Cabo Wabo Anejo will be flowing thru out the day. The weather is beautiful and it's mother's day so calories just don't count today.


    Happy Mother's day to all the mothers in our group. Although my mom has been gone for 5 years now I still honor her today. I also get to honor my daughter on her first Mother's day ever.

    I was woken up this morning with a call from Holly wishing me happy Mommy's Day so LIFE IS GOOD!!!

    GM, lushes....

    Lots of wine last night...3 at the restaurant and nearly a bottle at home :drinker: Damn, I'm a lush.

    Happy Mother's Day to the mamas out there. The difference between faith and knowledge. Mom's have the knowledge that the babies are their own and Dad's have faith.

    Boys walked to the store and bought me some ugly flowers and handed me the card in the bag without signing it. I :heart: them. Daughter gave me a huge hug and offered to hang with me today and do whatever I was doing. I told her laundry and she changed her tune. Oldest boy is probably clueless that I am his mother :tongue:

    Nope, oldest boy came home from work with gift...amazing

    So cute Diana!!

    Well I survived son's 18th b-day festivities on Friday...and managed to drink. A lot.
    0 yesterday.
    Son got home from the prom about 5am..kissed me on the cheek and handed me a bouquet of spring flowers..including hydrangeas (my fav) then went to bed. I don't expect to see him emerge from his room until this afternoon. Today is his actual b-day so we're having a family dinner. Grilled marinated lime chipotle chicken and shrimp, none of which I'm cooking...so life is good.
    I'm actually going to try to skip the booze today...Dr. appointment this week...I'd love to drop a few more lbs before then.

    Hope everyone is enjoying their day!! :drinker:

    AHHH the dogs are adorable!!

    The better half and I way over did it this weekend. One of our bars closed down and well, we helped them close down on Friday. I lost track of the beer and shots. :(

    We both decided that maybe we need to back off on the drinking for a bit.

    This made me laugh because I've been there. It's like WTF, where's the car.

    Lushy Sunday but I'm learning to really focus just sipping and keeping track of time since that is what most contributes to alcohol processing. At least for me, I notice no matter how much water or food I have if I have my drinks too close together then I just drunk and then it's a bad situation. Where as if I just sip the drinks and don't chug them like water then the buzz just comes on gradually and then stays that way provided I don't then start drinking my boozy beverages quickly haha. I had 4 homemade margaritas and 2 large beers at lunch. They were all spaced out though so I just had a nice steady buzz all day, got to bed around 11 and no hangover =]

    Fiancés parents bought him an 18 count wine bottle fridge so it is currently chilling down to temp. Dual zone for red and white with a nifty light inside. We don't have much wine right now since I basically drank it all myself ... oops. Aunt dot is here so I won't have much of an appetite this week, so I may have to shoot for some liquid cals :wink:

    I had to read this a couple times...I was thinking why does Aunt Dot make her lose her appetite then I realized she is related to Aunt Flo! :laugh:

    I am the same way...if I sip, no hangover, also if I drink water in between.

    Hitting the vodka/diet/cran-grape lite tonight, but last night was zero!

    Hahaha I have different names for her, luckily I don't get her cousins Bonnie Bloat or Connie Cramps. I never used to sip, I would just drink alcoholic drinks like normal drinks and I'd go from sober to drunk with really no in between and then I would want to still drink even though I knew I should stop. I'm finally listening to my body when it comes to booze not just food. For me water and food mean nothing, it's all in the time span in which drinks are had. On our cruise I would have the same amount each night and would have 1.5 liters of water before bed. When I got to sleep as late as I wanted I wouldn't have a hangover but on the last day when I had the same amount of booze as every other night, I had my water too but had to be up at 6am to get off the ship and it was a miserable day.

    I've got a margarita right now, may have a second, we'll see!
