Good morning all! It's a good morning here, anyway. I got in my STing and 30DS. The afternoon running has gone okay so far. I have a little less energy, I think, but it's so much nicer running in daylight. The temps are starting to drop, so I need to get my butt in gear and buy some better gear to stay warm. It had been okay until this week, but the wind is killin' me!

to all those who are joining us for the first time! This is a great place for support whether you check-in daily, weekly or whatever suits your schedule.
k8zilla-Congrats on making it to onederland! I know it seems like certain parts get smaller WAY slower than others, but the measurements will sure help when your eyes aren't seeing the differences. Just FYI, we have an exercise sister thread if you want the additional accountability of posting your workouts there.
Nella-There is a degree of craziness that comes with the holidays, but for me it's a good craziness. It means more traveling to see family

More opportunities to remind people that you appreciate them

More music, games, gifts and general family togetherness

I LOVE it! Oh, of course there's also more food!

But, who needs "normal" anyway? LOL
LaurenA-Excellent job getting out there despite the weather!
Tummy-Hope your trips to the city are productive! It's about that far for me to go to Minneapolis for shopping, entertainment and whatnot. I don't bother with it now, though. I can get what I need around here for the most part. Once we get into our house, I'll be more likely to make that trip since it'll be more convenient then.
Blondie-I'm with Tummy on this. You're not a loser. You had things ging on that took priority for that time. Now you're here and we're SO glad you're back!
