Too much wine last night :sick: Definitely a 0 for today.

kblue- thanks for the nice words.

Kat- sorry about the too much wine. Its the price us lushes pay sometimes. :sick:

Isn't that the truth haha. Our lush cards can carry some heavy consequences at times.

So much for my big zero yesterday - ended up with about 7 vodkas 'cause hubs lured me out with some friends. Now, I definitely sporting a sore throat and a runny nose, already ill-called for work tomorrow.

Despite illness, I am cleaning my disgusting house.

Robin, well glad that you felt good enough to go to work.

I think I have strep throat so I have to go for a culture in the morning. I took some antibiotics in the house that hubs uses for pre-dental appts to get a jumpstart. Naughty, I know. :blushing:

Monday, 7'ish
Tuesday, 0

Oh Kim, good luck with the culture!!!

Sunday-3 beers
Monday-10oz of white wine. I had about 6oz before I walked to the market, then finished the last 4oz when I got home...couldn't leave those 4oz now could I, haha!
Tuesday-0

I pick up my bridesmaid dress thursday, wedding is next weekend (the 23rd) and after that 2wks til hawaii, woohoo!!!!!

Well, was going to try to make it through the week with all 0's til Friday...but that didn't/isn't happening. Last night I had a hair appointment...and so my phone was on silent. I get done (it's about 8pm) and I have like 20 text messages and 4 missed phone calls. There was a shooting of a Sheriff Deputy (which my husband is, and was working last night) and I was late to the party on that one. So, I had a million people asking me if Matt was working and if he was okay...so I was freaking out not knowing what in the world was even going on. Thankfully, it wasn't him who was shot, but it was one of his buddies on the shift. Thank GOD the deputy is okay. He was shot with a shotgun and some of the buckshot hit his eye. He's in fair condition today, so I think he's going to be just fine.

Just a scary night. Went to my friend's house (who is a Deputy's wife too)..and our other friend came over. We drank wine & stayed together til we knew everything was okay. Matt didn't get home until 3am, so I wasn't able to sleep til I knew he'd be safe & sound next to me. Long, long night. I'm just thanking my lucky stars everyone is okay & no one was fatally injured (minus the suspect, which I don't care about him). The joys of being a LEO wife! :frown:

Thanks, ryzeman! ME TOO!! I guess it just comes with the job. Sometimes I really dislike the fact my hubs loves being a cop so much. I've really needed to learn how to cope with anxiety/fear. People are CRAZY in this world...and some really don't like law enforcement. But just thanking the guardian angels for watching out for our boys in blue. :bigsmile:

Eeeep, glad your long night ended well bgrune. That had to be terrifying.

Monday- a big fat 0
Tuesday- going for drinks and a movie with my girlfriend who's having some guy drama and needs some girl time.

Glooooomy day here but it's 50 degrees out so windows open listening to the rain :glasses:

oh my goodness briget...what a scary night for you!!!! glad all is well.

Feel better Robin and Kim....take your meds and try to get some rest!!

Ditto this ^

I am turning in my lush card temporarily until this %*#@(&^ bronchial cough crap goes away. I will still be checking up on you lushes to make sure you are (mis)behaving. Although I haven't been drinking much I don't think it is helping because I don't drink enough water to begin with and when I drink alcohol it dehydrates me even more.

its my friday :bigsmile: i cant wait to have memory loss tomorrow hahaha! got a whole week to make up for :drinker:

Diana, whatever you have is definately a hum-dinger. Have you had any prednisone & albuterol inhaler? That should reduce the inflammaton in the lungs & open the airways especially since you've had it so long.

Shell, glad that you are healthy enought to enjoy those days off, have one for me!!

Well, I missed work again today. I slept from 8 last night to 8 this morning with some periodic sips of water between. UGH!

Ditto on the poor sickies. My husband has had a cough for about a month. He got an inhaler, 3 kinds of nasal sparys, and has been taking Zyrtec for a couple weeks and is finally kicking it. My daughter had a nasty cough for probably close to a month too. I just ended up a little congesty for about a week. I hope you all get well soon! I have heard coughs are really hanging on this season....

BTW, who has had the Michelob Ultra cider? Is it any good? I had a Magners last night and I love cider, but hate how many calories they have (about 230). I went to Michelob's website and the closest place they have it is an hour and a half away... :noway:

Tues - pint of Magners and 3 glasses of wine = 4

i LOVE magners!

i am not a fan of the michelob cider. i think it's icky.
12oz bottle of magners - 125 calories

Lusy weekend=non-lushy week. I had one grapefruit/vodka on Monday and nothing on Wednesday...mostly because I'm in the throes of PMS (sorry to our mens for the TMI) and I'm eating ALL THE FOOD right now, so I run out of cals for vodka. :sad:

I haven't been too lushy, actually,
Sunday=0 drinks
Monday=0 drinks
Tuesday=4 beers

I am meeting a friend for dinner so there will be drinks tonight...
