    I've been limiting myself to 1 (a double, natch) per night...last night I had two. One pre-volleyball game drink and one post. I'm down for a Just Say No January as well. It would be interesting to see what it does for my weight.

    Over 500 layoffs at the husbands office today. He was not one of them. Things are so effed up there that he's trying to decide if still having a job there is good news or bad.

    There will be wine and/or vodka consumed tonight.

    Sydney, does he work for Hostess? JK...not funny...Ron has been thru more layoffs than he can even remember. It's an awful sinking feeling to go thru those even as a spouse.

    So, Ron, went to a chiropractor today for the first time and a miracle has happened. He can walk withou pain. It has literally been over 10 years and 2 hip replacements. He is walking all over the house with a huge smile and bending over properly. 1 visit. I am amazed and happy. He wants to celebrate and what's a girl to do? Not drink tequila!!

    But I realize that my husband is a private person at work and really doesn't feel comfortable with business and personal lives mixing.

    Kind of funny story here. When my Dad was marrying my Mom, he never told his parents or siblings about me. So, at the wedding, they were floored when they saw a toddler running around yelling "mommy" at the bride. I think he was a private person as well and that was that.

    Haha..no not Hostess. At least I'd have endless supply of Ding Dongs if he worked there. (does hostess make those? Twinkies are blech btw)
    And I'm pretty sure you know what a girl is to do. :wink:

    Awesome for your husband (and you!!) He has to feel incredible!! :drinker:

    Well, my husband is "up north" hunting - all us Michiganders refer to anywhere north in the state as up north. Normally I go with him but with my daughter and her recent hosp stay, I didn't want to leave her alone...so her and I stayed home. I miss hunting but happy to spend time with my girl :flowerforyou: and it was the first Friday night in forever that I had ZERO drinks! :tongue:

    Very lushy week....thinking I need to dry out today!

    Monday-0
    Tuesday-0
    Wednesday-5
    Thursday-6
    Friday-half bottle of wine and 3 312 drafts sooo we will say 5
    Saturday- whole bottle of wine and 3 amstel lites so 7

    so if today stays a zero (which I think it will) then I have 23 total for the week. And I am sure next week wont be much better!

    Had a successful zero yesterday!

    Tonight I am going to see breaking dawn with the best friend. We are going to dinner first, so I will probably have a glass of wine. Normally we sneak in some mini bottles of wine to the movie, but I don't know if I will have time to grab some.

    I am sure that this week will be shot to hell as we are meeting people out for drinks on Wednesday and will be going until Saturday. I'm defiinitely going to keep count to monitor the damage.

    Let the week begin....
