Wine in the margarita mix? Yes. There are some that you can buy that have wine in them.  |

My nearest Costco has the liquor store separate on the outside so nothing in the store has alcohol. We mix it with 1800 Silver Tequila. I have been having canker sore issues though and I fear it’s the margaritas. I get them bad from orange juice. |

Why didn’t we play flip cup in Denver? I think my only serious aversion at this point is to Butterscotch Schnapps. 🤢 Back in the day, I was all about shotgunning beers. Mostly Natural Ice because, cheap. Flip cup is my favorite! |

Maybe this is a confession? I have had at least 1 margarita a day for at least the past 10 days. Costco’s Kirkland mix is really good. Does not come with alcohol in it though. Oh I've had that, it is good. Will buy next Costco run. I've drank every day too, but wine so no judgement from me. |

I went to a local mom and pop appliance store that’s been around forever on Tuesday. I walked in, told him I hated my moldy front loader that’s only 3 years old, I have a lot of kids and do a lot of laundry and told him to order me what meets my needs. He picked a top loading Whirlpool. I’m on the third load and I now own towels that don’t smell worse after washing than they did before! I love my top loader. It's so freaking huge. I have to use a stool to reach the bottom.. |

I didn't have a drink until I was 22 and had graduated undergrad.  But I had a few shitty wine coolers and Mike's (which last time I had them I found them to be too much like shitty soda). I never drank beer and mostly went to the girly mixed drinks. |

I think I’m going to ask dh to take C to see Detective Pikachu on Sunday for Mother’s Day. We are going to Great Wolf Lodge tomorrow and will probably leave midday Sunday. It would be nice to have a few hours alone after that. I was going to take C next weekend but all the kids at school seem to be going this weekend and C has FOMO.

C was just a monster while we were out to dinner so I got a margarita. Dinner was near a different Costco that was rumored to have those vodka ice pops so now I’m in the car with the kids while DH tries to score some of those.

We buy the little Sutter Homes or like brands to keep in the fridge at work. Their perfect since we don't all drink the same thing and we don't want to open an entire bottle here. Easily store and disposed of. 1 takes the edge off and makes you not want to kill certain coworkers. I take those in my purse to the movies |

I am terrible at beer pong but I rock at tippy cup (which is what we call flip cup). The only alcohol I got super drunk on and avoid is schmirnoff ice. But those are terrible and I’d never drink one now anyways. Lately I’ve been into the White Claws because they are easy to sip on when everyone else is drinking beer (which I don’t like). My favorite forever will be rum though.

I am exhausted. H’s program went really well, she did great. After that we ran to target to pick up a couple of things and then went and got our free cupcakes. When we returned home DH was in charge of the girls lunch and naps so I could go out and get my gardening done. I dug super giant holes for my 3 rose bushes and got them planted, leveled out the soil and got it ready for mulch. Then I realized I needed some parts for my irrigation system so I paused and ran to Menards. Came home, set up the drip lines, spread mulch and planted up a couple of small planters for MIL and H’s teachers. We ate supper and then just hung out for a while after that. I’m going to sleep pretty soon because I have to work tomorrow morning. I am so glad it’s getting nice again.

I’ve been looking forward to this big old piece of cheesecake with my name on it for hours. Got home from picking up DD and DH was making us watermelon margaritas. I’m officially calling off my plans for having a beach body and settling for a Jersey Shore Boardwalk body instead.
