    I pre logged vodka for yesterday and never drank it. 2 glasses of red. I think this cold weather is keeping me sober.

    I'm right there with ya Mama Lush, my Packers lost :frown:

    Husband should be boarding his plane, he stops off in Minneapolis and then heads to Cali.

    Cleaned up a little partly because it needed to be done and partly because cleaning when I'm stressed or upset calms me down. One of the husbands best friends is acting like he's still in high school even though he's almost 30 :noway: and I just thought we could all be adults but he'd rather there be drama so it looks like we won't be hanging out with him anytime soon. He and one of the other best friends are closer anyway and I guess sometimes people just grow apart. On the flip side my new friend Eve, yes that's also one of my pups names haha, started seeing a guy and he was actually quizzing her on who the Packers are so I like him even more :smile: I can't wait to go on a double date with an awesome couple and a couple that isn't just going to fight the whole night.

    I think for the rest of the day I'll bum around and watch football and drink beer, it's gloomy here and there isn't anything else I'd rather do. Even though I have a hard time sleeping when husband is gone and alcohol usually helps I may shoot for 0's a few days this week but not today :tongue:

    And.......still 0! I made it through another weekend. If my husband wasn't on board, I'd have caved. (So I feel ya Dot). If he came home on the lovely sunny 65 degree Friday with a bottle of white, I'd have drank it in a second. But he didn't. So I didn't.

    Wednesday I drink! And Saturday. ANd then I am calling the month on the 26th as I have the friends Christmas dinner thingie. That will be 24 days with no booze. THAT, I consider success!

    Great job for those of you in moderation. It seems many of you all are drinking very responsibly. What's wrong with this group!? :wink:

    I did not moderate this weekend, AT ALL!!!!

    Saturday-1 beer before my dad's bday celebration, 1 chocolate covered pretzel martini, 1/2 bottle of white wine, 1 manhattan (or two can't remember), a beer, then we stopped at a bar on the way home and split a flight, then had a beer at home. I was pretty drunk. Woke up sunday, took a walk to the supermarket, came home had a margarita with our chorizo and egg tostados, then had 6 beers throughout the day. Roasted a chicken, some fingerling potatoes and sauteed some spinach for dinner. I was so proud of myself for actually cooking...usually I like take out on sundays but managed to behave :) Fun weekend!!!

    Going for zeros again monday-thursday.

    Monday-Thursday-0
    Friday- half bottle of red
    Saturday- bottle of red, 2 vodka and diet tonic and a miller lite
    Sunday- one miller lite (had this at lunch in an attempt to cure my hangover, but it did not work, laid on the couch all day and ate carbs and had a Mad Men marathon with the hubs)

    This week zeros Monday-Thursday at least

    0 yesterday. So, I'm definitely in a low-drink zone.

    Did not have an alcohol-free weekend. Friday I had 0, but on Saturday it was my friend's Dad's surprise birthday party and she was in town from San Fran for the weekend so we had a great time! Lots of vodka was flowing on Saturday night. Sunday - 0...and hopefully I can make it to next Saturday w/o alcohol. Going to see my friend on Saturday night for a chick night so wine will be flowing like CRAZY!

    Happy Monday all! :heart:

    Good going Ashley, my hubs is doing it too so it helps.

    Diana, love the puppy spam...you must be in heaven

    Sydney, must still be cold if you're still into the red wine - looks like everyone has the wine flowing

    Amy, I WANT a marg and that will be my first drink of the month

    45.1% of the way done and I picked Saturday as the drinking night. Went shopping with BFF today and it would have been so easy to go to happy hour this afternoon. Old habits die hard for sure.

    very impressive Just say no January. I didn't moderate too well yesterday. Doug was very bummed that the Hawks lost.

    Puppy cuteness galore! I love it.

    Happy lushing, I will be moderate or zero tonight not sure.

    Ahh...Kahlua...I have my (Mexican) mom's famous homemade recipe for that..if you're interested. I have many fond memories of her and her friends coming over to the house to play cards and make Kahlua...which basically just meant them drinking the vodka lol.

    No red wine..but I drank white. Blech....its not what I wanted.
