Goodbye Holidays!

The days of holiday gluttony are over for me and good riddance to them. I for one am happy to get back to normal and shed these unwanted pounds that have attached themselves to my frame. Back to a healthy lifestyle and trying to move this body fast enough to warm up in these frigid temperatures. It's way too cold for comfort in my opinion. I actually remember the days that I used to look forward to this coldness so I wouldn't sweat so much, now I can't stand going under 60 degrees because I freeze so easily, Brrrrrr.

The holidays were nice this year, so I'm not complaining too much on that front. We ended up creating a beautiful gingerbread house with my sister, husband, and MIL. It was a lot of fun! Now I just have to throw it away since there weren't any kids to gobble it up ROFL.

Happy Holidays!

Well, it has taken me a while but I'm really starting to get into the holiday spirit now. Tomorrow my sister will come over and we're going to build a gingerbread house with my hubby, myself and probably my mother-in-law. My sister and I made a pact to start collecting indoor Christmas decorations to go all out next year and start new traditions. We really don't decorate enough right now and it makes it more difficult to get into the season.

My only complaint about the holiday: having to clean! LOL it could be worse I suppose. I love cooking so I don't mind it at all, I just wish people were more health conscious and appreciated healthier meals. Since that won't happen I do my best but the dishes aren't what I'd prefer for a guilt-free holiday. This season has been particularly difficult for me in terms of eating behavior. I hope it is only the season and I can regain my focus quickly and with a vengeance. Being extremely cold hasn't helped me at all. I really feel like my limbs are frozen solid half the time!

I hope everyone has a fantastic holiday and keeps the holiday spirit alive! I'll be thinking of all the great friends I've made this last year while trying to party up the night on Christmas Eve :).
