Oh I have the crockpot going today too! I love when I don't have to worry about too much food prep and cooking AND even better, little clean up
Crockpot cooking is one of our favorites. The other- besides the outdoor grill- is the dutch oven.0 -
Look at all those 0's from everyone. You all suck at being lushes! :laugh:
Congrats Chloe! That's awesome news.
Katie...a manhattan sounds like a good plan.
I'm nothing if not consistent.

Probably another glass of red tonite to go along with the potroast in the crockpot.
I am with you Sydney on the 1s. But my "just one drink" is a bit stiffer than usual. :drinker:0 -

Used the dutch oven last night for a soup...let it soak overnight and BOOM everything comes right off, such an easy clean!! As much as I like to cook, the dishes kill me!!!0 -
We'd - 2 shots of rum0

Hi, Shelle - welcome
Chloe, congrats on the promotion. Was it something you applied for? Or, they thought, Chloe is just THAT fantastic and offered it of the blue and took you by surprise. All sorts of good things seam to be happening.
I am starting to waiver but not quite sure yet...0 -
I'm drinking a vodka/peach fresca...take that!0

Hahaha amnesia. Welcome to our lovely group :glasses:
Too much wine while talking to mom last night. Today will be spent watching movies. We got a foot of snow over night and it's still going strong. Maybe we'll be able to get out for dinner but if not I'm sure we'll manage

Welcome Shelleben!!!

Thursday....had alittle more than I should have!! 1 manhattan, 1 shot of grape vodka and about 5oz of wine.
Len leaves for the bachelor party this afternoon, so I am on my own tonight. Planning on the gym after work (cause I drank too much to get up this morning :laugh: ), maybe a hair cut, then some wine and popcorn for dinner :bigsmile:
So I did it, I weighed myself this morning for the first time since I hurt my knee in september. I was not pleased, up 4lbs :grumble: But it had to be done.
Oh and Kat, DAMN another foot, that's crazy! Stay safe and warm!!0 -

Thanks sweets =] yeah, they apparently said 4-6 inches according to others but my forecast said 10-12 this morning. In any event there's lots of snow again and it's beautiful. That is not to say that I'm not ready for spring though haha. Also, I wish I only gained 4 pounds buuuut since I didn't exactly lose weight the healthy way for the wedding my body needs to adjust and I want to do it in a realistic way this time.0 -

Thanks! It was not something I applied for. I have worked here for a little over 2 years and since I started I have taken on a lot of new responsibilities, so they created this new title for me and changed my job description. Not a total surprise, they have been talking about it for a little while.0 -
Welcome Shelle. It seems you'll fit in quite nicely here. :drinker:
Like Katie I had a little more last night too than planned. That crockpot roast was so good...it was raining hard so I snuggled up with a book and poured an extra glass of wine. More of the same tonight after my house gets cleaned.
TGIF lushes!

Katie, you'll tackle that gain with gusto. You were down for the count for quite a while with that knee...I bet you'll take it off well before your trip to Hawaii. 0 -

UGH I don't know Syd....we are less that 30days away. BOO and YIPPY :laugh: I had already come to the conclusion that I wasn't going to be where I was before the injury by the time Hawaii came around so I have already mourned and I'm ok with it now 0 -
I made good decision tonight

It's a sign of brain function at this point0 -

I keep forgetting we are well into March already! Well no matter...you're back into your exercise routine and ready for all those fun Hawaii outdoor activities! Kayaking, hiking, and fun in the ocean. I always manage to lose weight while I'm there despite the fact my alcohol consumption goes through the roof!0 -

Tis all!!!! 0 -
Kim - LOL on the bathroom story
Chloe- Congrats on the promotion!
Shelle- welcome.
I have been MIA because work was crazy and then Wednesday night i got a fever. It broke in the night so I went to work yesterday but I felt the fever come back. from730 until about 9:30 I was shivering so hard I couldn't even speak. They called medical on me (big place we have our own medical services) they came and took my vitals. (Dont cringe Kim) Heart rate 117, temperature 102.5 and blood pressure of .... gulp.....192/90. They sent me home. Told the byotch that I had a temperature and the flu. In the report they wrote it up as anxiety attack exaperated by the flu. They said my blood pressure was mostly due to stress. so it is official. The byotch is actually killing me.
with medication my fever was about 101 the rest of the day and it broke last night. I just took it about 30 minutes ago and I am about 97.9 I have the worst sore throat and every muscle in my body aches and my head is really hurting. needless to say no booze for me the past few days.
I hope you all have a lushingly wonderful weekend. I will be resting. (so boring)
Robin aka Mama Lush0 -
Holy *kitten* Robin!!! That BP is scary!!!
I'm so sorry you're sick. At least it's on record now what your boss is doing to you.
Stay home and rest and get well. :flowerforyou:0 -
Hey Robin- Use this time off to get healthy and take a break from the BS at work. With the stress you are under it's no surprize the flu bug got ya.
When you feel better stay home for another day or too to take care of your inner self too!0 -
Fever is back 100.2:sad:0
-
Oh, Robin...I don't cringe over those vitals...that's my world - I cringe about your work environment. You have not felt well in a really, really long time. Have you had any bloodwork done looking at a possible infection? I would worry about sepsis or strep since you since you just travelled and haven't been well for so long. Get well girl. :flowerforyou:
BTW, who actually diagnosed the anxiety attack? Was it an MD? I def would go to a real doc to refute that.
We will keep up the lush card for you. I am planning a moderate dinner with hubs and some wine samplings...unfortunately, I volunteered to be on-call until 7 - until then, my lovely red wine.0
