Here is the Green Bay Packer drunken Irish Shamrock.
It is a 3 leaf bc of me and my 2 daughters. It is placed under my arm so I will always protect them...
At least that is what my daughter said I said it meant.
I can't believe only 2 whiskeys were enough to send you to get a tattoo, I don't drink whisky but will stat away from them!
I love that your daughter and you got matching ones before she deploys. That is super sweet.
Irish Wakes have a lot of whiskey in them. Someone made them at a funeral in my best high school friend's family. She snuck two of them when her parents weren't looking. She dreamed she was being chased by a Jameson bottle all night and didn't drink again until she was in her 30s.
Wow. Like Long Island Iced Teas. Still can't even smell those without feeling sick. I never heard of an Irish Wake.
You obviously never overindulged on them. I did at $1 Long Island Iced Tea night in Milwaukee in college. I haven't been able to even think about them since without feeling sick.2 -

Funny thing the confession inspired me to get out there and do it. The walk was shortened due to sundown and I probably would have done better doing the walk first.3 -

That's how I feel about Jaeger, thanks to a New Year's Eve incident. I can't even eat licorice or pretty much anything with a lot of anise in it (some sausages are pretty anise-heavy)

I have found a copycat recipe for the green monster! I'm thinking about making a super small batch this weekend
Unfortunately, I have had nasty run ins with both Long Island Iced Teas and Jaeger. I would take either at the moment.... Yes, it is 7:35 AM and I am sitting at my desk...
The only thing that really makes me nauseous is anything labeled "BARTLES AND JAMES" Thanks Junior Prom!!! Wine coolers are a no go!2 -
This works for slugs, don't know how it would do for caterpillars. Take a yogurt cup (one of the individual ones - 4 or 6 oz size) and bury it near the plants so the top is flush with the ground level. fill about 3/4 full with beer. I use the cheapest stuff I can find, but it all works. The slugs are attracted to the smell and drown in the beer.
Bonus for us, the raccoons and birds come fish the slugs out of the beer and eat them, so we don't have to clean out the beer traps.
We used to make beer traps for slugs - apparently guiness works well! Thankfully few slugs here as our soil is too sandy, just a bajillion ants!0 -

Nope, it was Firewater. Ugh.0 -

I feel if someone is going to steal the identity of a deceased 8-year-old then they're definitely up to something shady!
Looking at some of his pictures he definitely had an off look about him that was almost creepy/menacing.1 -
Pet drama for me last night. As I'm leaving the house with son for a dentist appointment, he tells me that he thinks flies are laying eggs on the dog. I look at her and yep, she has a open sore near her girl parts and flies are clustering to it. I have hubby google treatments as I drive to the dentist.
Tig is 160-lb-mastiff with bad hips. Putting her in the car or truck to take her to the vet is going to be difficult for us and painful for her, so a home remedy would obviously be preferable.
So, Google says to bathe the animal and then put Vaseline on the wound. Easier said than done! She won't let us anywhere near the wound. Ugh. I keep worrying about her, when I should be working on my paperwork from my search warrant/arrest yesterday. Hubby said he'll look at her today and see if he can get a better idea if we need to get her to a vet.2 -

Oh, I'm so sorry. Poor girl! Can you call a mobile vet? Good luck and keep us posted.1 -

I hope Tig is ok! A friend of mine who adopted one of my Mastiff's pups called to tell me the dog had broken her leg and when they xrayed it, found a cancer in the bone. Poor thing has now had an amputation. She's about 9 years old.2 -

I hope Tig is ok. I wonder how she got the sore?
My friend just adopted a rescue and it has heartworm. And needs to have her eyelashes frozen off as they are curling in and irritating her eyes. She has had her for about 3 months.1 -

I'm sorry, Tami. I saw your FB post. Sending you all the hugs!!0 -
Confession: I left the house without my fitbit this morning, so I missed about half my steps. This annoys me because I think I am actually even on my calories, not over. But I will live with it.
Second confessuon: I took Son 3 shoe shopping today and ended up buying myself new sandals (they were having a bogo sale) and a skirt and two tops from Christopher & Banks. They were having a buy one get two free on their clearance items.
Related NSV: I bought my usual size 12 skirt and it's loose. (insert happy dance)4 -

Sorry, guys. We made the hard decision about Tig Friday night.
The infection she had was just going to keep coming back due to her lack of mobility. She was an awesome dog and we’ll miss her.
7 -
I am so sorry!!!!! She has crossed the rainbow bridge and is now playing with my bullmastiffs Hercules and Megara and Dogue De Bordeaux, Lucy.
Mastiffs are such special breeds. My heart is breaking for you!3 -
I am sorry Tami, losing a fur baby is awful

Confession: my coirkers are making me crazy today. Tomorrow there's a Lean Assessment Team coming from the company we merged with. They want to watch us work and assess our speed and whatever they do. (The software we use tells my bosses exactly how many and whose accounts I am touching every minute of every day. I think the Lean Assessment people are going to find out that they are redundant.)
Obviously, you can't stand around and chit chat while they are in the building so the coirkers are talking today instead. And there's not a single manager doing anything about it.
ETA: now one of the managers is doi g the talking. Her daughter got married this weekend. Which is great, but you didn't invite us so why tell us all about it on work time when you know you're going to have to fuss about other people doing it later.2 -
How ironic that the lean assessment team are in fact adding unnecessary work by not just relying on existing software.0

The software the other company used and is still using during the change over to our system won't do that. I think they are going to be out of jobs in a year or so when everyone is using the Epic software.
I don't even worry about them watching except I don't want them in my personal space. I am good at my job even when I chit chat on MFP.3 -
Confession time:
My husband said something really stupid last night that has REALLY hurt my feelings. I am usually pretty good about letting stuff go, but I just can't today. He is trying really hard to make up for it - but I'm being a total B!+ch and not letting it go.6 -

Been there, done that. Try let it go, especially since he's trying to make it up.1 -

Sometimes when I get hurt I have a real hard time letting go. It is something I am trying to work at. It may even be harder than losing weight.
I am glad I am not hurt often.1 -
Confession
I really need to find out how not to get in a data war with one of my colleges. I am at the point of letting it get personal but it is not worth it. It is not easy not to want to pop off and say something mean but I know I’ll feel worse about that than just walking away and letting her think she has won.
She will have won if I lose my principles.5
