Whether it be wine, coke, wine n coke, milk, juice, tequila or moonshine...It's been quite the week. Cheers to the mommas!

Soooooo, whatcha drinkin', anyways?

And let's hear a random thought while were at it.

Mine. I'm watching sex and the city and it's the one where Charlotte meets the shoe fetish salesman. It always creeps me out! But Id pimp out my toes for free $400 shoes.

Re: Cheers, eh?

  • It was Miller time over here....but that time is over. 
    I am oddly enjoying/freaked out about being home by myself right now, though.

  • My son got his 4 month shots today and has been screaming ever since (pretty much). I really really need something strong like vodka-no chaser. But, I can't so enjoy for me ladies. Also, say a prayer for my sanity...thanks :)

  • Hang in there Cali! Hope your little guy feels better soon.

    I'm drinking water with lemon. DH brought home a bottle of Pimms last night. It was a gift from a client.

    Any ideas for that ladies?

    I've never had it.

  • Well, just good ol' cranberry gingerale here.

    I'm dreading tomorrow. Anyone want to help me fake my own death?

  • I just finished pumping and I think I may hit up an Angry Orchard.

    Tomorrow at noon. I have a while to "fall through a frozen river" or "get eaten by a polar bear" still.

    Also, I love the name of this thread.

  • I wish there was something good in my cup. J fell asleep in the car on the way home from daycare and I finally woke him up at 7 - something I never do but he hadn't eaten since 2pm and I really didn't want him starting his long stretch of sleep at 4pm. He stayed up just long enough to eat smile and fall back asleep. This doesn't look so good for the am.

    Tomorrow will be a whole other ball game- momma's going out without H for the 2nd time since we've had Jack. Love H but I need a socializing night out without him.

    Cali- I hope your little one settles down. Shots are a bitch. We get our 4 month on Monday.

    and I've never heard of primms. is that a hard alcohol or a wine??

    Ohhh fun. Where ya going??
    Pimms is alcohol. It's delish
  • Vitamin Water. I'm feeling dehydrated. I've had water twice this week. Ugh, so bad. No liquor for me tonight!

  • Nothing for me tonight. I have a bottle of Riesling waiting for tomorrow.

    @LJUTCMommy
    With pimms I like white wine, white cranberry juice and slices of lemon and cucumbers. Really refreshing.

    @mommykristin88 I laughed so hard after reading "vitamin water". Ditto the dehydration feeling. Since I'm always crazy busy at work I always forget to drink water. Not good for my weight loss either, ugh.

  • Little Black Dress' Pinot for me tonight. DS1 fell asleep at like 6 which is scarily uncharacteristic so I'm waiting to see what punishment the universe has in store for me.
    Until then I'm eating the hell out of a tin of delicious chocolates DH's boss got him as a Christmas gift. Elastic waisted pajama pants FTW!

    @californiadream87

    At work I am basically drinking anything with caffeine. Water is the last thing on my mind. I felt so strange last night. No energy, lethargic, and just...off. I've been mindful of my liquids today, and I'm already feeling better.

  • Water here as well, but I have a fun weekend ahead! Tomorrow night is a holiday party at a friend's...lo is going but DH doesn't drink so he's on baby duty.
    THEN!!! I got free tix to the Cowboys / Redskins game on Sunday!! I'm feeling kinda guilty for leaving lo with a sitter most of the day but I keep telling myself I need some me time.

    Random thought: I really don't understand why your feet grow when pregnant. They were the same size for YEARS and all of a sudden 1.5 sizes bigger. Rage!

    Sounds like a kick ass weekend!!! And great question about PG. My feet are different sizes now. Just a little different but still!
  • @Jill9288, I want to come to your house for drinks! That sounds amazing!

  • Apple Juice... Yum!!! I am just glad this week us just about over! DH's birthday is tomorrow so I will be going crazy trying to get everything back in order for when his parents come to dinner. Once they leave I will finally be able to breath until Monday when they come back. Might need to go on a liquor hunt for that small break....

  • It's snowing like gangbusters up here. H built my DS a slide that goes from the top level of our deck and winds down to the ground. It's kick ass. There may be some toboozinin' down it tomorrow at our Xmas party. But prob not since I haven't done that since I was 18. I just wanted to say toboozinin'
  • Sangria, eating pizza, watching say yes to the dress, and crocheting a scarf.. Multitask much??

    I don't really have any random thoughts other than I feel like I'm SOOO behind with all this Christmas stuff. I have so much to do still.

  • Sparkling white grape cider. That's my "special" drink.
  • Mic Ultra. I was in the mood for a wussie, quick to pound beer. Both of our dogs have been incredibly sick in the past week- severe dehydration, seizures, inability to stand upright. We have no idea what's going on and are so stressed out about it. Our female was out of it tonight so DH ran her down to the vet; we thought for sure to put her down.

    She trotted her perky little ass in there like everything was a-okay. After she spent an hour laying on the floor, unable to stand up. She's there for the night/tomorrow for observation. 

    Needless to say I needed a drink, but won't do it home alone with the kids. So my parents came over so I could drink.

    Oh poor puppies!! I hope they figure out what's wrong. Glad your folks came over so you could have some bevvys!

  • Salted caramel vodka and cream soda

    Cosigned. Sounds delish! So glad the world at large has discovered salted caramel. Last night it was a Shiner holiday cheer, which may be my new fave seasonal beer. Tonight, who knows, it's my sisters Christmas party, but DH has to work. DS and I are going without him, but I'll hafta stick to one drink and make it a good one.
    Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.
