Hi folks,

I'm back and all caught up with everything that needed to be done in order for this Christmas to happen.  I'm a fast worker and between yesterday and today I got everything baked, wrapped, and cleaned up.

Haven't been working out at all. I want to take a few days off and just relax and enjoy this special time of the year.   Maybe at the end of the week I'll get back into the swing of things.  Need to catch up on all of you.

So I'll see you soon.

I just want to say that I will be taking some time off from EP.  It's such a busy time right now and I could use a vacation from blogging. 

I also want to wish Everyone a very Merry Christmas! 

Thank you Chargail for posting me about my foot.  Yes, today its feeling better!  Yesterday was iffy so I just didn't work out. 

Thinking about riding the bike today.  That won't put any pressure on it in case its still weak. 

We got about 7 inches of snow yesterday.  To much for me to do by hand, so my Son went out last night with the snow blower and cleaned the whole drive way.  I only do it by hand when there isn't to much.  I like to replace my exercise for that day and give myself a total work out.  My Husband is glad he has a wife who doesn't mind doing it!!!

I'll be back later after I work out.  I have some things to get done before I work out for today.  Be careful out there on the roads if your going out today.  More snow on the way tomorrow.  Not as much though.  I have to be at Church tomorrow to help with Service, so I hope it won't be to bad.  Same thing for Christmas Eve Service.  I hope it doesn't start snowing until all our Services are over and everyone is home safe and sound.

Ok, got to go because I'm starting to talk to much, and than I won't get anything done around here today.

Bye for now.

I took today off from working out.  My foot is really hurting me today.  I don't know why but it could have happened yesterday while doing the snow.  Better to stay off of it and hope that its better tomorrow.

Well today I walked on the treadmill.  Only did 30 mins.  Some days I just don't feel like doing a challenge or walking longer than that.  Today was one of them.

Got a lot of my wrapping done today.  Still waiting for some gifts to come in the mail so that's all I'll have to wrap once they arrive.  \

Going to start thinking about baking cookies for next week.  My Husband and Son love them for Christmas, so I am going to make a few.  Not going to over bake and go crazy, just enough to make them happy.  Good thing for me is when I do bake I don't crave any.  I don't know why that happens but I just get filled up on the sight and smell of them.  Funny thing, isn't it? 

The weather is saying 3-4 inches of snow tomorrow.  Hope its just that, and not a icy mix.

Nothing really new to talk about.  So I'll see ya tomorrow.

Last night for the BL. I'm really going to miss that show.  Jan. Idol starts up again, I like that show too!  So at least I know that will be back on soon.

Ok, have a good night.  Sleep thight

I have to report that I did get my work out done today.  It almost took me all day to do it, but I did do it and I'm glad its done!  Yay me for not giving into that lazy feeling I had all day!  Feel so much better when I work out and I know I pushed myself the way I did today.  Helps with general well being too! 

Today I plan on working my lower body, and my abs.

I got up so late today.  I can't believe that we slept past 10:00 this morning!  We haven't done that in ages.

Didn't have to go to the shelter after all yesterday because they had enough people for the weekend.  So I finished up my Christmas shopping after Church.

Glad all the gifts are in the house.  Now all I have left is wrapping.  I like wrapping gifts.  I always put on my Christmas music and get into the mood!  Maybe tomorrow I'll start doing it.  Its way to late for that today.  So that's it here.  I'll try and post later after my work out at least on the support group.

Happy Mon. everyone, lets make this a good week!

Today I worked my upper body!  Had a great work out and ended it with a 20 min. cardio session.  Felt great and glad I'm done for the day now.

I need to start drinking more water.  I can't believe how lax I've been with that.  I'm really surprised that I haven't been doing it.  I think with the colder weather I have just been drinking more coffee ( I know not good) so now when I want a cup of coffee I reach for my water bottle instead.

Well that's it for now.  Hope you all have a good weekend.  I'm taking off tomorrow.  Have Church, plus helping out with trying to find homes for some dogs for Christmas.  Wish me luck on that one.  So sad, the shelter is so full and these poor dogs have been there a while.  Say a prayer for them too, please.

Bye for now.
