Kate, that's where the saying "It's 5 o'clock somewhere" comes into play0

Haha, might just have a "Kat screw driver" which is grapefruit juice and vodka.
Chloe, you're awesome with 0's so I think you're still in the green
asjerven, thanks for the info! I have my SS card, state ID, passport and credit cards so I guess I don't need the kit. Good thing about the ID is I hate the picture so this is a good excuse to get a new one haha.
So, I also changed the light in the office and since I had the carpet cleaner out I cleaned the family room carpet which was disgusting. I can't wait to get rid of the carpets. Mostly carpeted floors and 5 animals doesn't make a good combo. Last nights argument was only made a bit better by the fact that I finally got Aunt Flo. She didn't come at all last month, probably from a combo of stress and working out so much. So that was stressing me out too. I left a note for the fathead for when he gets home that reads "Yes, despite your being a jerk both last night and this morning. I picked up the boxes, vacuumed AND shampooed the carpet in the office. I also changed the light bulb. Love, your maybe soon to be wife" I then left a note in the office on the computer that reads "You're welcome
"
We'll see if he says anything :indifferent:

Most folks just call that a greyhound.
I changed my name the first time. I changed it back after the divorce. I didn't change it the second time. I did change it the 3rd time and it is a long going process this time. The only things that are correct yet are my house and my car because it is expensive to change the title on the house and a hassel to change the car. it took 3 years to get it to this point.
Okay dear lushes hold on to your hats

Sydney, glad that you are feeling better with exercise and healthy eating.
I've got to get laundry done and prep some dinner. I'm also thinking how nice a pedicure would be.

Don't worry Kblue I'm right there with you!!
Good job everyone else on your 0's :flowerforyou: and thanks Yvonne, things are better now
So the biggest weight of the wedding has been lifted from my shoulders ..... our pups will be there!!!!!!! :bigsmile:
I was so worried about leaving them for so long not to mention they're my babies and I really wanted them there for our HUGE day. I contacted Jackie at the Manor which is who the packet said to talk to about pets and she was absolutely wonderful. We're figuring out how to do it but I am just so incredibly happy that they will be there. I am definitely getting pictures with them and hopefully some video I tried on my costume wedding dress yesterday and Jinx laid right down on the train, it was the cutest thing so I'm hoping for a shot like that with my actual wedding dress.
So despite this lush having too much booze yesterday, not enough food and being a tad hungover .... nothing could ruin this mood :bigsmile: I'm also feeling SUPER slim today so that doesn't hurt either haha. Think I'll spend today lounging and possibly putting the bridesmaid gifts together :glasses:

holy crap that sounds good. recipe?0 -
I have been lushy this week.
an old friend came in from out of town
The Cards got the wild card.
Wed - 2 shots and 3 beers0 -
Linguine & Mushroom: grilled wild mushroom, shallot, spinach, fresh herbs, black river gorgonzola, white wine butter sauce
Lemon Chardonnay Butter Sauce:
¼ cup butter (salted)
¼ cup Chardonnay wine
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
¾ teaspoon granulated sugar
Dash salt
1 1/3 cups heavy cream
This is the only recipe I could find when I looked for it. I was going to leave out the lemon and use this for a base and tweak as needed. However, since I got to the restaurant once a month, I figure it's a treat. They use Black River Gorgonzolla and it must be added in the end because the chunks are everywhere and it just kind of melts in.0 -

I have to admit yesterday was very very difficult. Boss was a total B and when I got home I was one cranky @ss B myself. But I somehow made it thru. I do feel better in the morning but it sure is hard to fall asleep. I am also compensating by eating too much sugar. No promises but I will just keep going until I don't want to anymore.0 -
Yep, Day 3 is usually the deal breaker...yes, falling asleep is horrible, maybe some melatonin might help
Zip, friends make us extra lushy, good luck with the cardinals. I have on my White Sox t-shirt today and I am kind of embarrassed - but - a cubs shirt would be more embarrasssing. Sorry, Chole 0 -
