Wow Diana, great job on the master en suite! Looks like a wonderful place to soak and relax. I see the added bonus of you in the mirror taking the picture. Looking good!

*kitten*....Thursday, 2 beers!!

Nice bathroom Wolf. I like the paint better than the wallpaper for sure!

Kim, ditto...I don't envy that. You are a saint!

I considered a drink last night, but we don't really have anything in the house I like except Kettle and I refuse to mix that with juice, etc. and I didn't really feel like a dirty martini....so 0 it was. Tonight Eric is playing golf and probably won't be home till around 7 or 8, so the baby and I will most likely walk to the liquor store and I'll drink a bottle of wine and watch a Lifetime movie. Tomorrow we're headed to Lexington to hang out with friends around their pool, so most likely an all day drinking event.

Have a great weekend lushes!

Week so far while mom has been visiting:

Monday - wine
Tuesday - wine
Wednesday - beer, malt beverage then wine
Thursday - wine and beer
Friday - will be wine

Family dinner tonight, I actually love my family so I get quite excited when we have a dinner since we don't do it often and tend to only see everyone around the holidays. We definitely like to drink so there will be wine before our spaghetti and meatball dinner :drinker:

Happy Friday lushes! :flowerforyou: :glasses:

Love the hat.

I've been lushy for quite some time....

Camus - the inbetween days...

Haven't even been able to workout because of all the rain .... grrrrr

I need to get a hold on this soon!

Hi msam- must admit I had to look up Camus! A cognac I see. Welcome to the board! Lots of good supportive ppl here.

Happy Friday to all my fellow lushes. Past two days have been a zero so I believe I have to feed my alcohol deprived brain cells. They HATE thinking clearly! :grumble: :drinker:

Ohhhh, peeps, I am not a saint but thanks for the kind words. Day 2 is always better except they sent my ortho pt to the ortho unit. Then, they gave me a pancreatic cancer guy that I know is going to die very, very soon. It's a new diagnosis for him and he is only 40'ish. He had his first chemo and he's not tolerating it well.

His heart was in a funky rhythm that couldn't be controlled. I had to call cardiology twice for new orders, passed out on the commode trying to go to the bathroom and mouth blisters all over his mouth. By noon, he went to the ICU. Here's my advice, if you ever have pancreatic cancer, DO NOT GO thru the treatment. Chances are 1 to 3% you will survive and you will be so MISERABLE AND WANT TO DIE anyway with treatment. There is NO QUALITY of life.

Friday, 2 large beers at Chammps but I didn't even finish the second.

I was cancelled today and plan to run this morning and have a date day with Ron. He's going to Chicago on a business trip and taking our 2 younger boys since all the family is there. I am sure that some cocktails will be involved. Also, want to get some landscape finished.

I also promise not to crap on about work anymore - it's just been a crazy couple of days.

Your grandbabies will cure all headaches, Renny.

I had 0 yesterday but failed on the food front..I ate crap!
Its frustrating when all my good work during the week gets wiped out in one day of horrible eating.
Back at it today. Maybe i'll go for another 0.

hubbys on holidays this week, so we are drinking a lot,, having many a BBQ and by the pool, with drinks in our hands,
sigh,,,, that's the life!

Friday had 2 big glasses of rose' and 2 pineapple honey vodka and sodas, so pretty good for a Friday. Saturday started drinking at 1, stopped around 1am and hung out with old friends around their pool all day and stayed there that night. Had some cucumber vodka and also some wine that was good and some wine I think I remember helping them pick out when they bought their house around 2005 or 06. It was a 2002 bottle of Groth sauvignon blanc, whic is a great brand, but it tasted a little "old". I drank it anyways. Felt crappy yesterday morning, but rallied and managed some productivity and a little fun too but no drinks. Shooting for 12 drinks again this week. If you don't count Saturday (I counted it as a free day) I was only over by 1. If you do count my Saturday, I was probably over by 11.

Planning on a couple 0's this week hopeflly. I have a Glow 5k Saturday and there is a little festival during the day in the trendy neighborhood nearby, so probably several drinks there. I can run a 5k half drunk right?

Sounds like a lushy weekend for some- I was there as well. I did manage two zeros last week, going to try for three zeros this week- the operative word being "try".

I can't remember the last time I partied till 5am. Definitely a young person's game.

Have a great week all!

Everything sounds so yummy nisi! Should be an awesome party :glasses:

Well mom is gone and I'm alone again in the house :frown: I loved having the company but wasn't as good with booze and working out as I had planned, oops

Got lots of housework done today as well as a work out and now a nice fat zero on the booze front. Vacation is the last week of August so I've got some time to de-bloat and lose a few pounds. Shooting for 0's Monday-Thursdays again along with good work outs Monday-Friday

Good luck to my fellow lushes going for 0's and cheers to those going for moderation or not so much have some drinks for this lush :drinker:

Amy send over that recipe to me :happy: I have made 3 batches of homemade pretzel and I am still trying to find the perfect recipe. I like to made pretzels when we brew beer!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing last night. I am not planning on anything tonight but I am not couting it out either!!!! I slept like poo last night so I slept through my workout so I need to do something tonight...either a jog or a walk to the market?!
