Happy June to you all.

Thank you for all the birthday wishes. It was a good day. Not an overly lushy weekend. Tuesday I actually had a zero but I made up for it on Wednesday by going a little overboard. Last night was very moderate but today is FRIDAY!!! I am so glad.

    I finished the bottle of wine (2 glasses) and had a cider. Not terrible. Not a 0.... Oh well. Next week is my last week of work before vacation, so it's doubtful there will be many 0's. Have a great weekend!

    Three light beers last night. Now if I could start logging my food and exercise again, maybe I could make some progress!

    Back home and it feels good. Over did it 1 night with the wine and I hated the way it made me feel so I only averaged a glass or 2 since.
    I'm with you, Gary. I need to log my meals and start my workouts again.

    Today is haaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrd to say no to the booze beckoning to me from the cupboard. I discovered today that doing yard work without drinks = grumpy Meg. Seriously if I was doing this alone I would have caved for sure. My sexy man is suffering through with me and lent me some of his willpower when mine ran out.

    Meg you've been doing so great, you should be proud!
    I exercised both Sat and Sun and I'm sore! But hope to keep up the routine this week. I'm moderating on the wine. Looking forward to establishing a good routine again. MIL is back in her apartment and feeling well so my caretaking duties have shifted to myself B)

    I drank a good amount all weekend. Saturday was a little much, but I wasn't too bad Friday and Sunday. We had a lot of fun doing many things as a family: festival, pool, art fair, horse track family day. Good times.

    I'll try for my one and only weekly 0 tonight I guess. Vacation starts in 3 days!!

    Oh well....I finished off the wine (not even a glass) and had a cider. No sense in stopping now!

    Good job Kate. Happy you can focus on yourself for a while, Syd. Ashley "it is what it is" so no worries. Meg you are a rock star.

    I am overdoing it a bit. Last night was better. Stress at home is high and will be for a while (until Doug comes to grips with his future and when he is able to use his right arm again). Bodi has decided that he doesn't want to struggle to walk anymore so it is getting harder and harder to get him up and moving and his legs are getting weaker.

    Sorry to be a downer. At least the week is almost over. :drinker:

    Hang in there, Robin.
    Good to see you, Kate!
    TGIF lushes! It's been a pretty good week, I managed to exercise well and keep up a pretty good routine. Maybe even dropped a pound.
    I'll probably gain that back tonight. Baseball game at Petco Park is always fun, even tho the Padres suck. We're experiencing our typical June gloom here weather wise but I'm thinking I need to get back into the pool...probably Sunday.
    Have a great weekend lushes! :drinker:

    Thanks for the support ladies!! 8 more days to Lushytown for me... I have abstained through hosting dinners where friends brought bottles of wine for me (because they know me lol), a long weekend with beautiful weather and countless other excuses to lush it up... super proud of myself if I am being honest. I'm still counting down to next Saturday though... :smiley:

    Robin, I'm sorry you are having a rough go of it right now. TGIF indeed.

    I hope the lushes had a good weekend. Mine was pretty good. I got some things done so I felt productive. still drinking too much but that is the way it goes. Bodi is now in a dog diaper most of the day. He just doesn't have the control anymore. It is hard because he loves me so much.

    So I am becoming such a downer. I just got a risk letter yesterday. It basically means get ready because you are probably going to get laid off in the near future. I think this camel's back is just about to break. I am not sure how much more I can handle. Powered down too very stiff drinks last night on an empty stomach and went to bed really early. I will try to find my positive. It just went on hiatus for a while. Too many kicks to the gut lately.

    I hope you are all doing much better than I am. Later lushes.

    Oh Robin! :( I'm familiar with your company, as you know and I'm sorry they're treating you so horribly. My husband has a real, similar fear because of his age being so close to retirement. The ba$tards have zero regard or compassion for their employees.

    I'm sending you all the positive thoughts that things turn around for you. Give Bodi a big hug <3

    Made it thru another night. It's funny things are really quiet at home. Doug and I aren't talking at all right now. We are both just deep in thought and contemplation. I had two regular drinks last night. Thank you for you thoughts. It is nice to know that some people care. I truly appreciate the Lushes!
