    Marla - I hope you got your walk in!

    Sherry - I'm glad your legs were feeling better. And I agree about the gym membership...only $99! That's amazing! You could always do some low impact stuff as well that won't bother your legs as much so it wouldn't be a waste.

    I hope you all have a merry Christmas! I got all Christmas cards done...and promptly forgot to mail them. Whoops! Headed to the ups store to check our mail later (we get our mail sent to a separate address) so I'll bring them then. I figure, when stuff like that happens, I bring comfort to others that they aren't alone in being disorganized. ;) My sister is coming to hang out this morning, and my dad is coming to babysit this afternoon so hubby and I can go see Star Wars. I'm super exited! Not going to get much accomplished but all my church stuff done yesterday, laundry has been put away, bills have been paid and filed, and all my Christmas shopping is done. So I'm enjoying a few days of relaxing and enjoying myself. Was going to run this morning, but deferred it to tomorrow as last night was our first night hanging out as a family and it was a great time. It went late but I didn't want to cut it short just so I could get a run in. Working on being well-balanced and family time is part of that. We watched a Muppet Christmas movie, then had a fire in the back yard while eating brownies in a mug. We read stories, sang Christmas songs, and poked the fire with sticks. It was one of those nights you remember, just because it was peaceful. (Youngest had one meltdown...but that was at 10:30pm so I'll cut him some slack)

    Have a wonderful Christmas Eve Eve!

    Sheri even if you can use gym for a few months would be worth it. Take it easy, on better days don't overdo.

    I am done with christmas stuff all wrapped too. I was feeling sick to stomach yesterday, did short walk in morning and forced myself out to store with gingerale. I knew it was nothing caching, we had spicey food night before and my body as much as i dont want to admit it, just doesn't like it if i eat certain things as i get older.

    I rested at home all afternoon and night while i wrapped gifts by fire.

    So today a walk before rain, going to see Star Wars with hubby.

    Wow, everybody's seeing Star Wars. Hope it's good!

    Well, picked lil girl up at same time as son today and took them downtown to fight shopping crowds. The great news is that after doing some serious vacuuming today (used ALL the attachments! Worked up a sweat too) and walking the same distance as Monday (after which I could barely hobble), today was different--no pain!! Legs a little sore tonight, but I was never in pain walking today!!! Let's hope this trend continues! Yay!
