It's the day after Thanksgiving, and I am wondering did you survive the big day? Were you able to get out of bed this morning at your regular time? Were you hungry enough to have something for breakfast? Or did you have a restless night because you ate too much, and the smell of food is everywhere making you feel even more stuffed?
Hopefully you woke up refreshed and ready to start another beautiful day! The sun is up, shining down everywhere, and your stride is happy and quick. O what a beautiful morning is singing in your heart. Okay........I know........I have been up all night at work, so I am a bit tired and ready to head to bed. So I guess I am a bit looney from lack of sleep. Just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you. Guess we can skip weigh-in tomorrow. It will be a free pass day. Hope you have a great day! |
Had a very nice Thanksgiving and didn't overeat. It was very cold here....9 degrees when I went out to the barn this morning. Getting more rain tomorrow. I'm glad it's not going to be snow.
Went and did a bit of shopping. I only went to some local stores. I don't go near the malls on Black Friday. Lots of people coming to get hay tomorrow and Sunday. I might start to put up some Christmas decorations. Have a great Saturday! |
I think we are going to put up some of our decorations tomorrow. We got the tree boxes dragged out yesterday. Hubby bought a few new lights with the correct type plug/voltage. So that will help out so we don't have transformers taking up space everywhere. Hope you don't get that snow. We have the chimney sweep guy coming by this afternoon. Hopefully, our Chimney won't be too bad for him to check out. Plus we just ordered or second cut of firewood for the season. Going faster than I thought, but then we only use it at night while watching TV. Have a good Saturday.

Got our chimney looked at yesterday. Found out that it was not installed very well. The smoke has problems making it out a sideways flu, and it is not very efficient heat wise. Already figured out most of that myself. Nice to have it confirmed though. I was worried that it was plugged up, but it is fine. Very foggy yesterday. Had veggie pizza and celery and hummus. As much as I have been eating it, you would think it is my favorite meal. Just cheap and quick to make really. Hope you have a nice Sunday!

We had more heavy rain last night and again it flooded the barn. I'm lucky I have extra dry stalls. And I'm glad this wasn't snow. Very nice and warm today but more rain coming tomorrow. It was too muddy and wet to put up the outside decorations.
Had a nice fellowship hour after church with a luncheon. I was good and only has 1 cookie. Do you need to do anything to your chimney to make it work better? |
Went for a nice 2.5 hour walk with my husband and dog yesterday. Later cooked up some cabbage, carrots, broccoli, and beans. Put up a Christmas tree in the living room and another in the bedroom, and just a few decorations around the house. Still have the outdoor nativity to set up, but that shouldn't take long. Just need to find a spot that is less windy for it.
Good work on limiting your cookie intake! That takes some strong willpower. I need to get back into my stretching and weight exercises. My body is telling me it needs it. Have a good Monday! |
Thank you so much for the lovely Thanksgiving Day card! :hug: It sure helped brighten a wet, cold dreary day.
I did a little decorating in the house and caught up with some reading. Made some mac and cheese in my slow cooker for dinner. Will do more decorating tomorrow and laundry...... Have a great Tuesday! |
Glad you liked the Thanksgiving Day card. Too bad it got to you late. Better late than never. :)
Did some exercises and hand weight lifting yesterday morning. Then followed with some light zumba dancing. I figure if I start off slowly, my body will handle it better. Also set up my dogs jumps and weave poles. The ground is kind of lumpy, but we managed to find a spot for set up. He was so happy to be out there running around them. We actually had some sunshine for a few hours too making it nice to be out there. Breakfast-toast Lunch-broccoli, beans, and rice Dinner-veggie pizza, nuts Have a great Tuesday! |
Breakfast-Toast
Lunch-Mock chik patty and pierogies Dinner-veggie fajitas Exercise-3 hour walk Watched movies for most of the day yesterday since it was rainy and cold. Been watching the Walking Dead series. Don't really care about the dead people walking around, but have gotten caught up in the surviving characters and their roles. Some entertainment on those cold, wet days. Have a good Wednesday! |
It's Thursday! Nothing too exciting going on today, just work. Well yesterday I succumbed to some leftover Halloween corn candy. It was very delicious and I am sure I will end up paying for it this weekend with weigh-in. Cold, foggy, rainy, and dreary here. Hope you get some sunshine.
Breakfast-granola Lunch-bean w/rice salad Dinner-toast Snack-corn candy |
No rain for a change. Spent the morning grocery shopping, then went to the mall to see the decorations and do a little shopping. I had some coupons so I spent a grand total of $1.09. I spent more time in the checkout line than actual shopping!
Tomorrow we're going to put up the outside decorations and finish doing some outside chores before it gets too cold. Been selling lots of hay. My eating has been really bad :( |

Lunch-Veggie pasta, cabbage, peas Dinner-Mexican Bean casserole Snack-Chocolate cereal bar pieces My eating has not been the best either, but tomorrow is weigh-in so we need to face reality. It will be the only way to help motivate us to hang on to the reins during the holidays and maintain some type of control in our eating with the loads of food that will surround us. I think it is okay to have some of it, just not over do it. |
Breakfast-Granola
Lunch-mock chik patty and pierogies Dinner-Chinese noodles and vegetables Exercise-walk 2 hours Down 0.5 lb this week. Not much but it still a loss. Hope you do good! Happy December!! |
Happy Sunday! Another wonderful day to celebrate our love of Christ and his wonderful Father, Our God! Hope you feel especially close to them today and all during this month.

Today is going to be hard...first I have a Christmas brunch buffet and then tonight I have a Christmas dinner party put on by Home Depot. Wish me luck :)
Raining here again! The ground is so super saturated. I think we do have a drier week but then maybe a snow storm this coming weekend. You did good last week. I didn't even get the scale out...... Have a blessed Sunday! |
