How much alcohol will you consume 12/24 - 1/1?

[cincodemayo]

I'm having a small brandy slush tomorrow and that's it. Boo. I'm making my mimosa with sparking grape juice.

12/24 - I won't be at my parent's house until 8, put the kids to bed and then probably have a drink or two to calm down and then go to bed early.
12/25 - Family drama.  I hope to keep a pretty consistent buzz after 2 p.m. but stop at bedtime for our flight.
12/26 - 1/1 - vacation!  Three happy hours a day where drinks are BOGO so 6+ a day. Resort drinks are pretty watered down though.

I bought the ingredients to replicate Bonefish Grill's Winter Cosmo, so I will be trying those for a couple of nights at least. After Christmas we'll be with H's aunt, no real drinking there.

[patbutcher]

I went and bought myself non alcoholic beer and spark ill g grape juice tonight. The ils don't have alcohol at their Christmas anyway so not much difference except we normally have champagne Christmas morning as we open out stockings at home.

[jeaniebueller]

Um, a lot. I mean, I won't get wasted or anything, but probably 2-4ish beers a night tomorrow, possibly 12-25 and 12-26. And who knows how much on 12-31 since we are staying in and I can drink all I want. And then we are supposed to go out with friends on 1/1. So....I don't want to give my real answer. Two beers in right now. Cheers!

[water*drop]

Not enough since we're co-sleeping now. Though maybe I can just day drink instead?? That's socially acceptable on holidays, right?

[glitzy07]

Depends if I have this baby before 1/1...

[heygrey]

i have a 3 drink limit in the evenings. I might have boozy coffee with breakfast or a beer for lunch, but I haaaate being hungover. I'd rather not drinking than deal with a toddler and a headache.

[turtlegirl]

DH is opening a bottle of wine right now...

Probably a glass or two of wine tomorrow night at my parents house. And then a semi - steady flow of wine at the IL's xmas afternoon.

And then we are planning on sleep training DD after xmas, so lots of wine will be Co sued then.

Not sure of our NYE plans yet.

[jenn248]

Not enough.

[oregonpachey]

I am not a big drinker (no judging!!) but I do like cider during the winter. Probably a cider per night.

My effin kid man, he can't sleep more than 7 - 12 these days.

[ebeth]

Not as much as I'd like!

Because my kid hates me and wants me to have neither sleep nor booze this holiday season this week she introduced an extra wake up in what WAS the 'safe zone' for extra drink or three. THANKS FOUR MONTH WAKEFUL!

[bowies]

All of it.

I'm not pregnant or nursing this year.

I agree with this. At 37, hangovers are a bitch and last more than one day.

Also, I feel compelled to add that last Christmas and New Year's, my DD was waking up every 1 to 2 hours overnight, so I was exhausted and miserable and as a result, didn't drink very much at all.

[dellabear]

I'll have a small glass of wine with Christmas dinner and maybe a little champagne on New Year's Eve. We usually have mimosas on Christmas morning but this year I'm planning on faux ones made with ginger ale.

[Deleted]

Almost none. Probably a beer or two tomorrow and a drink or two NYE.

ETA--maybe less now that I'm thinking about the cold I have. Boo!

[drloretta]

MIL gets here 12/28 and leaves 1/3. Much will be consumed during that time

[cjeanette]

I drank my weight in wassail today. Will probably do the same tomorrow.

[winecheery]

[cinco]

A couple drinks a night. One or two nights of 3-4. Maybe some day drinking when DH's family is in town.

[starlily]

I will be drinking a lot from tonight through Saturday, and then from the 31st through the 1st.

I have to work Mon-Thurs next week, which explains the drinking interruption.

[darnkatz]

My BIL is chewing ice. With his mouth open. He has been doing this for 15 minutes now.

Exactly

[pierogigirl]

None. I'm not pregnant. I just don't like it.

[VillainV]

Maybe a glass of wine or two? We have literally zero plans, so no occasion to drink (but also no guests, so no reason to drink either). H is on painkillers and isn't supposed to drink. And we have a toddler, so hangovers would suck.

[shelbyann]

Not nearly enough. Sigh.

[vtdiamond]

I'll have a few glasses of wine each night plus bloody marys, etc!
