    A beer, a bottle of champagne, 2 glasses of wine and lobster with mussels last night. Feel good today, first time in a long while not having a hangover. Going to margaritas for lunch so I'll have a marg or two and since no breakfast they should tide me over for a while haha.

    Got into the vodka yesterday. But I stopped early enough and drank water last night so today I felt good enough to have a tough workout.

    So..that's the key..become a drunk during the day. Why didn't you all tell me that? Sheesh :drinker:

    Lushy Sunday thinking 0's today - Friday. We'll be driving all of Friday night into Saturday morning so it'll be easy not having a Friday drink haha. Saturday it's vacation time though so I'm sure as soon as we all get checked into the house and unpacked we'll all want a good cold beer or stiff drink.

    Well the TRY did not workout saturday!!! I had 3 beers before I even got to my parents. I had to meet my mother in law at an amazing bar to plan my sister in law's shower, so.....I had to have a couple amazing beers. Got to my parents, had 2 margaritas and 4 or 5ish vodka tonics and then 2 glasses of wine. Surprisingly did not feel too bad yesterday. I got some laundry done and we went to FINALLY see Avengers. Then stopped and picked up two beers at wegmans and took it easy for the rest of the day.
    So....
    Sunday-2 beers
    Monday-0 is the plan

    So, I had a good discussion with self yesterday and resolved to control the drinking better. Then, gf calls this morning and reminds me it's wine tasting night with pino grigios tonight that I have already paid for. UGH!!! Maybe, I should be the DD and then I will have BEHAVE.

    Kate, you just crack me up!!

    Kat, enjoy your trip.

    SoCal, I do that frequently...the lots of water helps.

    The news is full of the Supreme Court rulings...very interesting, AZ immigration laws and the Healthcare laws...funny how just a handful of people consider what's appropriate for millions and millions.

    Hi all, I had a great time in Port Townsend. we walked tons and saturday my fit bit said I had climbed 39 flights of stairs for the day. Drank lots of wine and a few cocktails and of course some vodka. did eat too much and slept in a big comfy bed in a georgeous old victorian b & b. Even the rain didn't dampen my spirits. We saw a bunch of deer too. It was all good. Not sure what this week will bring. I think I will just wait and see.

    Happy lushing all.

    PS. Glad you stopped back by Yvonne. I missed you.

    My plan is nothing until friday BUT we all know how that usually works out for me. I was really wanting a vodka tonic last night but 1 would barely scratch that itch so I opted out. Its gonna be a late night tonight, gym, supermarket, then cooking dinner so I should be ok :happy:

    I was going to strive for some zeros this week but tonight will not be one of them. One of my brothers is visiting my dad from So Cal. We are not that close and I have a lot of issues with this particular brother, but my dad really wants us to come have dinner with them all. So I want to make my dad happy so I will go but it will involve wine and lots of it to keep me from being a total b1tch to my brother and his girlfriend. Oh well such is life.

    Last night was a bit of vodka to unwind after a very long day but not too much.

    Good luck rj, have some wine for me =]

    Monday - 0
    Tuesday - 0

    Looks like I'm going out to lunch with my best friend on Thursday so I can give her the key to our house so she can watch the kitties while we're gone. Lunch always involves drinks but at least I'll have 4 this week which is much more than I can say for last week :noway:

    Think I might shoot for a work out today.

    Our brains work the same!!

    Wine night was some tasty pinot noirs from Oregon and I learned a lot about it's yumminess. Now, I want to go and live there.

    So, I've just picked up a dozen shifts over the next couple of months. My goal is to save for a cruise next Spring. I'll hoping it will curve the lushiness; but, I usually just start drinking earlier to compensate.

    Monday, 2 pom martinis and probs 5'ish of wine. They left the open bottles for the group to finish. Tamara and I can't pass up an opportunity like that. Luckily, most of the peeps went home and it was all ours :drinker: :drinker:

    Just got the call that my wedding dress came in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :bigsmile:

    I cannot remember the last time a call or anything for that matter made me this excited. I would so love to celebrate with some champagne but it's day 2 of my cleanse so that's a no go ...... unless the fiancé mentioned it haha.

    Boy did I need that call right about now :smile:
