Ohhhh, Robin...what a nightmare!! The boy is definitely upset about something.
I think I might cave on the 0 for tonight. I'm in the mood for a little red wine with 600 cals left. Just hungry all day long. Ate lunch at 10:30 and dinner at 3:00. Time for a little happy hour with coconut shrimp. I'll use up my birthday gift card from there.0 -
damn Robin...tough night! This is why I got a kitten. The litterbox is a PITA but she hasn't missed once.
Back from lunch. I didn't have wine but I'm thinking I may have some later. Husband is working late and hates his damn job. It makes me drink.0 -
Thanks yvonne
People seem to still be talking about the wedding which is always nice to hear.
Mama lush you just can't catch a break :ohwell: hope things look up soon :flowerforyou: My pups have accidents but never like that. As far as the cats, I won't get cats again. Our big boy still sprays and the little jerk pees in our tub or laundry basket and I can't have a tree skirt because she'll pee on those too :noway: :grumble: . I can't wait to get rid of our carpets because pet messes are much easier to clean on hard floors.
I don't know if I had a 24 hour stomach bug yesterday but I felt like I was going to be sick all day. Sweats, hot then cold and all of that fun stuff. I haven't thrown up in who knows how long so it was friggin' miserable. I didn't eat anything at all until the husband came home and made a yummy healthy stir fry and by then my stomach was feeling better. His stomach hasn't been feeling well since our mini moon but I think that was just the week of mexican food. Anywho I woke up feeling great today and got lots of house work done as well as a good shoulders and arms work out. It was the first one in a month so I went down 1 weight so I wouldn't get hurt and I'm sure I'm going to feel it tomorrow. I must say that I think with the combo of my metabolism being up from working out so hard before the wedding and with listening to myself and not eating to excess I haven't gained any weight since the wedding. I weighed in yesterday at 113.2 I think which actually is slightly lower than the wedding? Not sure. Husband and I are getting back to nice healthy meals and moving further away from processed stuff so last nights dinner with chicken with broccoli and pepper stir fry in sweet Thai chili sauce and my word it was good. Not sure if he'll be home for dinner tonight but it'll be something healthy and yummy again.
As for booze with all these projected 0's I think I'll balance things out and open some champagne

Hi Lushes,
Back from the woolly worm festival and my worm was a total failure! I couldn't even get it to adhere to the string for the race
and I was really looking forward to winning that $1000.00 prize this year 
. For those who are not familiar with woolly worms they are the fuzzy black and brown caterpillars you see in colder climates this time of year.
The Renaissance Festival was a blast and wouldn't you know it...it was beer fest weekend there :bigsmile: I have to tell you that I could not keep up with daughter and her friend, but I think that is a good thing. I bought a little catapult shooter that shoots mini marshmallows and am trying to teach Callie to catch them in her mouth. She can do it when I toss them to her, but when I use the catapult she just stands there and gets pelted :laugh:
Robin - Dogs will sometimes do that if they have a urinary tract infection. I would get it checked out just in case...if not then he very well may have a screw missing.
Drinking so far...
Friday - 2 margaritas, 1 vodka soda
Saturday - 4 vodka diets, 1 martini
Sunday - 3 vodka diets, 3 mini beer samplers
Monday - 0
Tuesday - 1 hard cider0 -
Feeling a bit under the weather this week one way and another, but determined to finish up the alcohol in the house before no-no november :drinker:
p.s. Pam, its nice to see you back, the lushes are infinitely superior0 -
Robin-holy crap! My husband probably would have killed that puppy!!! We have issues with our cats spraying, its intermittent and we don't know which one it is but you'd think one of them killed someone the way my husband reacts, haha!!!. Kat, I'm with you no more kitties!!!
I hope that it was a one time thing and you don't have to go through that again!!!
Monday-10oz of wine
Tuesday-I made my husband take me out, so 2 glasses at the restaurant and one at home watching dexter. Not sure about tonight, yet!
I still have yet to make it to the gym. I can only do about 10mins of light cardio (as per instructed by PT) and it just hasn't seemed worth it to get up at 445am for that when I can do strength at home. BUT my puney 5lb weights are cutting it, so I think I'll go tomorrow so get back to the 10-12lbers!!!0 -
Oh, Mama, that sucks!
Wolf, sounds like a FUN time!
One red bull/vodka....I think it was a double, but that was it.0 -
Diana, glad you had fun with your wooly worm. Good job trying to keep up with the youngsters.
Pam, glad to see you back as well...we are rockstars here, no judging for sure...and, duh, on the post who explains the empty calories like we don't know that.
Yvonne, good luck on No-No-November.
Blue, I could never, ever get up at 445 to work out. WTG, heavy lifter.
Dot, double schmuble, it's still one.
Monday, 0
Tuesday, 4 wines...then, it was water, water, water
Are the cats neutered who are spraying? Because, my cat's have nevered sprayed in the house. My friend's cat sprayed when there are too many males in the house. You know those men have to show dominence.0 -

Our cats are neutered. We adopted them together (they had to be adopted together because they came from the same house) from a rescue 5yrs ago and for some reason, in the last two yrs or so have started spraying. I'm not sure if its because neighborhood cats come and stare in our kitchen and dining room and taunt them or because we found a vole in our basement or because we brought in a wooden fence from the outside when it broke but..... We had them checked for crystals and even have them on special, EXPENSIVE, food!
Oh and I do hate getting up that early but I hate going to the gym at night even more :huh:0 -
Welcome back Diana! Wooly worms sound kinda ooky. Im not much of a bug person, but the rest of your trip sounds awesome!
This is why my kitten is female. I've had a male before and was very lucky, he never sprayed, but I didn't want to take any chances. Males are much more prone to UTIs as well. The only issue I have with the kitten is the 2am wake ups and her trying to knead/suckle my neck lol.
Wine again last night, but lots of water and early to bed again. I'm boring0 -
Quick post while the boss is out.
Monday 0 (only because I was sick)
Tues 6 beers, maybe 5
But lost 2 lbs this week. Calorie counting is good!
Thank you Yvonne, it's good to be back to this spectacular group! Hope you feel better.
Robin, what a time with your dog. I was thinking water bed til I read further! Not fun, either one.
Wolf, that is hilarious the worm race!!! Sounds like something my friends up in Illinois should do!!
Hope you feel better Kat!
And to all have a great hump day!!
Pam0 -
Wolf sounds like a good time!!
Yvonne hope you feel better and good luck on your upcoming no no November
Kblue that definitely doesn't seem worth getting up so early for haha
nisi, our big boy is fixed but he's sprayed his whole life and the vet has no idea why. The little one isn't fixed yet but we got her this new litter that's supposed to attract her and it seems to be working.
Congrats Pam!!! And thank you, my stomach is feeling much better I'm going to go get an hour on the bike done soon :bigsmile:
Got some more cleaning done today, going to vacuum right before the party so the carpets are nice. Also contacted the landscapers that take care of many of our neighbors lawns in our neighborhood and will hopefully be able to meet with them soon so they can come shape up our yard which I can't wait for because it's a mess, can't wait for it too look as nice as all of our neighbors even if you can't see it because we're set back.
Husband will be late tonight so I think I'll have some wine or spiked cider and relax with the fur babes :drinker:
Happy humpday

Why do I pretend like I'm not going to drink anything for multiple days in a row? Setting myself 3 sup for failure.....
Sunday - 2 pints blue moon, 1/2 bottle red
Monday - 3 small glasses of white
Tuesday - 4 ounces of white....so that's almost ilke a 0. I shouldn't be dissapointed in myself over that little amount
Tonight we have a family party and I plan on taking wine or beer. Oh well..... I have been drinking in moderation and that is really what my main goal is. So yay me!
And yay for all of you! Just because.0 -
