Friday!

Well it's Friday and I'm thrilled, though I have a bunch to do this weekend, at least I don't have to work!

We had a Holiday program at DS#1's school last night and it was good - lots of kids, but enjoyable singing and fun.  After we got home I had an emotional melt down - DH got our Christmas tree and at first glance it looked kind of puny and then in a money discussion he said something that didn't sit kind of right so I was upset.  We sat down and talked and that helped.  He did ask me where I was in my cycle and that  made me mad, but I know he is right - I'm right in the middle - just ovulated and I was highly emotional.  I have troubles with that where things just seem to pile up and I can't deal with that.  Thankfully I found a couple of books on hormones and balancing them at the library and as soon as they come in through interlibrary loan I will get busy reading them.  I also plan on talking to my doctor when I go in for my yearly at the end of the month.  I don't really want medication - but I do need to figure something out to even my mood swings and emotions out a little more.

That said, we went to bed a little late last night (and as of this morning I actually like the tree) so I didn't do yoga last night or get up to work out this morning (but it is technically a rest day for me).  I do plan on getting a run in after work even though it's just 36 degrees here right now - no telling what it will be at 5:00!  I tried to get DH to let me wear the new UnderArmour running tights I'm getting for Christmas from his dad but he said no - so it's thermal underwear and pants on top.  I know I will warm up quickly but this will be the coldest it's been since I've started running.  And yes I am a baby I know it gets much colder in a lot of places than it does here on the coast and truly I'm blessed because this is about the coldest it typically gets.  Doesn't mean I have to like it though - I mean last week I was running and pouring buckets of sweat since the temps were in the upper 60s!

So that's that - hope to get my run in - fix a great Shrimp Bisque for supper with a salad and also do my  yoga tonight.  We'll see how it goes.

Tomorrow holds making invitations for DS#1's b-day party next weekend, putting lights on the Christmas tree and planning my Christmas baking.  I may get DS#1 to help me bake something because I think that would be fun!
