Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
The latest weather report has us receiving more than a foot of snow over the next 18 hours. Let’s just say that I’m not going to pack my lunch tonight for school in the morning. This is the third time in a row that we haven’t had school the last day before break. It’s nice to not have to deal w/the kids before break but the last day is usually pretty fun AND they bring us presents. Oh well, I can’t control the weather.
I apparently can’t control my eating, either. I made it through the day, turned down all sorts of treats and hit the gym for a 45 minute workout, burning about 900 calories. Then I hit the store b/c of course you HAVE to go to the grocery store before a big snowstorm hits. We honestly may not be able to get out until Saturday, even living in town, so I wanted to make sure that we had enough for meals and I wanted something easy for tonight. Take’n'bake pizza, can’t get easier than that. It was good, but I feel like a load. I’m trying to walk the fine line b/t realizing that I have to relax my restrictions on eating to make it through the holidays w/o completely going crazy. I know this is going to mean “starting over” probably dozens of times over the next 2 weeks but as long as I don’t completely give in I’ll be happy.
Hopefully, though, I’ll be able to get caught up on all of your blogs. We’re not even snowed in yet and I’m getting cabin fever. I can kind of see why Jack Nickolson went crazy in “The Shining.”
Progress toward workout goal: 131/250
i love your positive attitude and honesty…at least you’re not in denile of what’s to come with the holidays and the weather. it’s funny, living in so. california we don’t have “weather” problems delaying anything in our lives, so it’s eery to hear that you guys have to be locked away because of the weather.
keep your positive attitude, maybe we can do some pilates tapes or yoga?

Awwww, send some o’ that snow to North Carolina, ok? We’re vacationing there (we leave a week from today yay!) and we’re really hoping for snow but the extended forecast isn’t looking very white.
Yay on the 45-minute workout!
900 calories! Nice!
