    Can't stand shopping of any kind so there is no way I'm going anywhere near a store today.

    Got some lifting in, had some leftovers, and have done some cleaning in preparation for putting up some holiday decorations over the next week.

    Just a walk around the neighborhood and a bit of yoga. I refuse to even go out on the roads!

    I had a 10 mile run this afternoon on a sunny 30 degree day.

    5 mile run, and then my sister and I took a walk to nearby Andersonville (neighborhood not far from my house) to just walk around and do some shopping. Since it's not really a Black Friday area and people seem more likely to travel away from the city this weekend, it was less crowded than a usual weekend day. I picked up a calendar of their holiday events so I would remember to fit some in.

    It was close to 50, but overcast, so didn't feel quite as nice as yesterday, which was sunny. But still a nice day for walking around.

    I had an indoor rowing session with a handful of other people and now i'm baking apple strudel. I thought about going to my favorite yarn store (al la small business friday) but parking would be a joke.

    I spent the whole day doing diddly squats.

    Andersonville is a lovely area! Ann Sather’s cinnamon rolls are ❤️❤️❤️

    I did some Christmas shopping online but just stayed in my pjs all day and relaxed at home. My husband is still off from work so it was nice to just spend a day doing nothing with him.

    No shopping here. I celebrated my 48th birthday by running 26.26 miles and eating leftover turkey and then had birthday ice cream and pumpkin pop tarts.

    Happy birthday!!!🎉🎁🎈

    Well my wife and I had our granddaughters over night (10 and 9) and then took them Black Friday shopping, had a blast and got in over 10,000 steps to boot, woohoo! So who says you cannot mix keeping fit while shopping hmm?

    I did a lot of nothing. I had intended to not leave the house but we did go to the mattress store to get our toddler a mattress for his new “big boy” bed that he’s getting for his birthday next week

    Yesterday: avoided stores like the plague. Worked most of the day. Had a surprise drop in visit by relatives. Whipped up some chocolate crinkle cookies for them. Went for a short walk.

    Today: Home Depot for 100 pounds of cow manure. Food shopping. Spent almost two hours in the woods; finally figured out how to connect two trails. Made the America's Test Kitchen awesome Pasta e Fagioli.
