Barbara, the car repairs are making me cringe...radiators, clip and hoses, oh my!! Last night I did a 12 hour shift in my milkin' shoes and I have to say that I don't have a lot of pain today. I had to go to Schuler Shoes where all the old people go and I wanted to die. Shoe shopper with the elderly and maimed is not considered a good time to be had.

Kate, it's amazing that a simple walk in the summer can build up such a thirst for the cold, de-lish-ish-ness of a beer. I wish water had the same effect.

Ashley, good to know that hubs enzymes are better. Margarita in the hot tub sounds good too!!

Robin, maybe consider getting on some BP meds. It sucks - but, it's better than a stroke. I have no willpower and hubs doesn't help the situation either. I told him that I can't drink for 2 weeks because of the high Ibuprofen use for the foot. So, every night, he's either stressed or happy about something - and - we all know that means drinking.

Day 2 - no booze - had trouble falling asleep and had to resort to the trazodone

OK, off to the garden and some exercise today - days off are the best

Monday - 0
Tuesday - drinks with the best friend
Wednesday - 0 is the plan

Work out in a bit!

I couldn't even manage 1 zero. I had wine with the pasta I made. I'm pathetic.
and tomorrow is the husband's birthday. We're going out. I'm sure drinks will be had. :huh:

I hear ya Kate. My 0 did not happen last night. Granted I had 2, but still....

Most of a wheat beer minus what I put in my sauce. Then a cucumber vodka with Sprite zero. Have you all had the cucumber?! It's my FAVORITE!

We'll see about tonight.

Sorry about all the job suckiness mama lush but good luck with the interview opportunity! :flowerforyou:

As for this lush....

Monday - 0
Tuesday - drinks with the best friend
Wednesday - 0
Thursday - 0 is the plan unless my friend who usually works from home Thursday comes over either way there will definitely be a work out

Kim and Kat way to go on all those zeros!!!!!

You haven't seen the size of my wine glass, Kim. :bigsmile:

he, he...I can imagine

Quiet thread tonight.

So today is the 11th anniversary of my Gramp's passing and I'm so wanting to have a glass of wine or scotch in his honor

Edit: decided to have some wine while listening to jazz and thinking of all the amazing memories I have of my Gramp

Kat, so sorry about your grampa...:drinker: ...to Gramps!

Gary, raising my glass to your MIL also...:drinker:

I'll raise my water cup :drinker:

Day #4 - booze-free and hoping to sleep well - it's falling asleep that's the problem

3ish glasses of sauvignon blanc last night. Maybe I'll get some 0's next week. I think I'm on a streak of 11 non-0's in a row. So much easier to drink everyday than NOT drink.... :ohwell:

Auntie, hot tubs does make one sweat it out! lol :smokin: One way or another..... hehe

SoCal, the marinated flank steak sounds good! I'm going to give it a try next time I have one.

Robin, hope that interview comes through. Praying for you!

:drinker: To your Grandpa, Kat and MIL ryzeman! It is hard to lose love ones....miss my mom and step dad. Am dreading the day my dad and his wife I call ma walk to heaven.

Zero, what is a zerooo?? Agreed Ashley....zeros are hard to come by around here. :laugh:

Last Thurs (would be like my Friday) 4 - 8 oz glasses of Crisp White Wine AND 4 Natural Lights
Last Friday 2 glasses of Crisp White Wine, box....(classy, eh? lol).
Sat the same.
Sunday 3 glasses of Crisp White...
Monday 4 glasses
Tuesday 4 Natural Lights
Wednesday 4 Natural Lights
Last night 7 Natural Lights.

Somehow I thought Sat and Sun were zeros.....Glad I log drinks everyday, oh and the food too. Keeps me honest. Somewhat. :bigsmile:

Job is going good, third week down. SO much to learn!

Have a great weekend all! :flowerforyou:

Pam

Thanks all and here's to your mother in law Ryze! :flowerforyou:

It was a great day, first year I didn't cry and that's because it's not so sad anymore. It was beautiful here yesterday and if Gramp was still with us we probably would have been out in his garden I just felt happy all day and now it's more about the great memories and having had him as my dad since he and my Gram pretty much raised me My Gram is still kicking, you would never know she's going to be 90 this year, doesn't look it at all or act it

Another gorgeous day today that will be spent relaxing until work out time then date night!

I did my second day of the C25K. The foot is actually doing OK so I might try another day today. I did it on the way to the ball game last night and then on the way home. On my way home, the storms were coming in and then the tornado sirens were going off. I was about 15 minutes from home and getting pretty nervous. Luckily, some lady pulled over and gave me a ride home with my also very wet dog. CRAZY!! All our ball games were cancelled today since the fields are under water.

We lost power last night and had to light bunches of candles. I played a dice game with my son and he loved it. Also, have water coming thru my roof as well which really, really upsets me. Bad, bad storms.

Now, since the ball games are cancelled - maybe, go to Wild Bills for some Bingo, specials & sunshine.

Monday, 0
Tuesday, 0
Wednesday, 0
Thursday, 0
Friday, 3, I poured vodka and counted to 4 for 3 drinks and didn't even finish the last one. I was exhausted.

haha...you're good to go, kim!

1 beer and 1 glass of wine but my eating has been horrible! I need to turn this ship around..I'm definitely going in the wrong direction.
