Well, Thanksgiving was insanely intense, with all the relatives and the what have you.  I’m in Yakima now, already starting to go horribly stir crazy.  I’m trying to keep up with my food and workout plan and it’s been working out pretty well for me so far.  I’m feeling good, my pants are loosening up again and I’m ready to power through into the new year.  I’m going to try to write faithfully the rest of this week to keep myself sane, so wish me luck!
