    :laugh: Well, bringing in the wood was good for my strength, but did not create a whole lot of steps I guess. Of course, the other way to look at it is thank goodness for needing wood or I might have had even less steps? Meh, it's the holidays-what can we do?
    OMG @Deeder522, we are under a flood warning and it is also over 40F!!! They are predicting 45 tomorrow and rain at 1-2 inches!!! Along with the ice and snow melt, our rivers are predicted to go above flood stage. We live on the side of a mountain, so we do not have a flooding problem, but we are worried about the Hemlocks staying upright!!! On Tuesday, the temps are dropping into the 30s and they are predicting 1-3" of snow!!! The weather needs some Prozac!!!!
    I am glad you got out for a walk as it does so much to help our moods at this time of year. I do not have SAD as I am a total night owl, but when I get out every day, I have more patience with Dennis and am calmer generally. I am going to be roasting my fall pumpkins today before they start rotting. Garmin keeps reducing my step goal and I am still not making it. :bigsmile:

    December Goals

    Mileage Goal 41 / 68
    Apple Challenge: Reach my daily exercise goal 8x. ( that's 20 Apple exercise minutes ) 4/8

    Yesterday, I wasn't very active. Today, I woke up to snow. They're calling for 1-3" by tomorrow but it looks like it will all melt before Christmas. Snow isn't making me feel in a "get to moving" mode.

    I reminded Ryan that when we focus on his gut health he starts to feel better and let's just stay in that direction rather than dive into the pit of Fatty liver. Last week he tried trout for lunch instead of steak. Trout seemed to work better than Salmon this time. So we'll try that 1-2 times a week. He's about 6 weeks into taking a zinc supplement. It's a low dosage and his system seems to be okay with it Added benefit is that it can help with leaky gut which we think he's had but couldn't get a DR to look into.

    Our work has been quiet and people have been slow in responding even if they were the ones making the request first. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Our son's shop is shutting down for the holiday for the 1st time in years. He'll be home from Thursday afternoon until after the new year. They also did a round of layoffs He was safe as he kept his nose clean and head down. ;)

    I hear from my BFF that they got a bunch of rain and flood watches. Hope things are okay with you, @zichab.

    There are several closed roads that are flooded, but we are fine. Our lake came up about a foot, but it was far worse for the roads by the rivers. Also, there are storm drains in town that are frozen so all the water had no where to go. The town crews were trying to crush and melt the ice so the water would drain from the streets. We expect this in April, but not December! :angry:
    Things always slow down around the holidays unless you work for Amazon! :smile: I am glad your son avoided the lay-offs. He must be very relieved!
    I think you are on it with Ryan. MDs only like to diagnose things insurance will pay for and dietary problems do not fall in that realm. My sister has had to manage those herself as well.
    Speaking of your BFF, I cannot believe how patient her dog is with those puppies! She walks away for a while and then she is right back there nuzzling them or pulling them close. She is doing a great job. :bigsmile:

    I slept horribly last night. A mix of hormones and anxiety left me with about 3 hours of sleep. Today, I will be a slug.

    Get ready for more puppies @zichab, she has a 2nd female due in the next week or two. They should have a 2nd camera popping up this weekend, I think.

    Now that is more like it. I had to do two days work in one day-laundry and cleaning floor 2! That made for a lot of trips up and down. Today, I just need to clean floor 1 so I probably will not have as many.
    OH @Deeder522, I feel your pain when it comes to not sleeping. I had never had sleep issues in my life until after I turned 70 and for some reason, I have at least 1 or 2 nights a week when I cannot sleep. I have tried reading, TV, meditation (really not good for me as I am a TYPE 1 on steroids) and nothing works. If my mind wants to go, there is nothing I can do to stop it until 6AM when is crashes finally. Trying to function on 2-3 hours of sleep is dreadful and it never happens on a day when I could grab a quick nap. It is always on the days when we have appointments and lots of driving to do.
    Making a Czech Christmas bread (Zavin) today and yeast rolls for Christmas dinner. Also wrapping presents as I have not even started that task! YIKES! :bigsmile:

    I slept very well last night and now I'm ready to go out and deal with everything. 😊 Sometimes when I can't sleep I'll put on a show that I know very well and drift off. I know the show well I don't have to pay attention (engage) with it so it becomes like a comfortable background noise.

    With the holiday on Sunday/Monday, I'm double-checking to ensure I have everything I need for holiday lunch and to get through the rest of the time with the stores being closed.

    We upgraded Ryan's iPhone and found that this one doesn't cause any pain while holding it. So that's an improvement. We're working at hardwiring everything we can in the house to decrease the use of WiFi.

    My sleep issues seem to be worse during "that" week every month. I'm healthy ( mostly) but I know menopause is coming down the road and I'm willing to bet I'm in perimenopause. I need to reread a book so I can better game-plan some healthy changes for myself in the coming new year.

    There is a fun little book that I found at the library before about meditation. It's called Just Sit. I've struggled with meditation and then 1 person explained it isn't about emptying the mind it can be about concentrating on the loudest thing in your mind.

    I looked the Czech bread up and that looks delish and I want to find some b/c I'm willing to bet that it would make amazing French toast.

    The one closest to our recipe is ořechový závin (https://www.cooklikeczechs.com/nut-roll-recipe/) but the filling is different. Dennis' grandmother used chopped nuts, breadcrumbs, brown sugar, cinnamon and melted butter to hold that all together in her recipe. The bread part is virtually the same though. We suspect it is because walnuts were not readily available or were too expensive as they were not wealthy immigrants by any standard. We also think this because when the bought the farm, that eventually became their green house business, one of the first things they did was plant a black walnut tree that still stands today producing tons of black walnuts. The other thing we always make for Christmas are koláče (https://www.cooklikeczechs.com/ceske-kolace-authentic-recipe-for-czech-kolache/) because Dennis' grandmother always made them and now our daughter-in-law makes them when we are in Europe. Czechs know their way around breads that is for sure!
    It's so funny that you say you are hard-wiring everything, because we are doing the opposite! We finally got a wireless printer and are now almost completely wifi. Dennis still has his HP computer hardwired, but my Mac laptop is not. We are not heavy users though as we do not run a business or control our heat and lights etc from our computers. I am glad the new iPhone does not hurt Ryan when he holds it. I have a hard time seeing the screen so I prefer my laptop for important things.
    I hit the grocery store today and got all the fresh produce I needed for tree decorating snacks, Christmas Eve snacks and Christmas dinner. I start shopping for ingredients for the holidays in October so by December, all I need is fresh dairy and produce. I make my drop cookies ahead and freeze them so I can get them out as I need them to bake. It's handy when we are visiting and I want to take Christmas cookies.
    Peri-menopause and menopause are two things I really breezed right through with virtually no symptoms at all. I was worse off before with mood swings, cramps, and days when I was so nervous I could barely function. Once my periods stopped, all that stopped too and I did not get the forgetfulness, hot flashes or anything other women mention except the occasional insomnia. My paternal grandmother was the same so it could be a family thing.
    I need to finish wrapping my gifts as the tree goes up on Saturday and I am getting excited!!! The house is going to smell like balsam for the next week and I am ready for it! :bigsmile:

    Well, my daily average is shrinking the more the month goes on! :ohwell: I'll worry about that come Jan 1 when I start the Jessica Walk and Talk Challenge, which will more aptly be called the Walk and Pant Challenge!!!! :blushing:
    Today, we are finishing our wrapping and tonight we are driving around town to look at all the pretty Christmas lights. I am really tired today and I think it is the lull before the last mad dash of cooking. Tomorrow's "to do" list is much longer so I need a good night's sleep tonight!!! :bigsmile:

    Well better than yesterday I guess! :ohwell:
    We are decorating the tree tonight accompanied by our tree decorating snacks and then we watch Miracle on 34th Street. It is our tradition each year. Tomorrow, we also have snacks and enjoy our tree and fire. Sometimes, we watch a movie, but often we just chat about the year. I need to get my table set tomorrow for Christmas dinner. We also got snow today, so the spirit is bright! :smile:
    Merry Christmas! :bigsmile:

    We're having a green Christmas here. Christmas went well for us and my Mom made it over too. 😊
    Today we'll take it easy and rest up for this final week of 2023.

    ok, I lied. I didn't rest that much. I overhauled and rearranged my bedroom. Then I did a nearly 40-minute walk outside since it was about 55 out today.

    Christmas tree day was epic! Lots of steps getting it in and up as Dennis needed more help than usual. I find it hysterical that I have more steps on days when I was sitting most of the time. :laugh:
    OMG the puppies are so tiny!!!! I even forget how tiny kittens are when they are born. I always see them as full grown cats. Mom #2 seems very protective and watchful. So cute!!!!
    Doesn't it feel good to overhaul your bedroom!!! I always love it when I got to bed and every thing is in tip top shape. In our house, our room is where we put things that are waiting for a home and every now and then, we either find a home or they go!!!!
    It's warm here too and I am over it. You're going to make your December goals by the look of it. I definitely will not!!! But, I am seriously planning my 2024 goals and priorities. I need to read more, move more and organize more. I have over 80 years of photos that need to be put in order and labeled as Dennis and I are the last ones with the memories of who many of these people are. This is the year we get them all organized. Next year, we go after 40 carousels and 2 large boxes of slides! One job at a time! :ohwell:
    I am so glad your Christmas went well!!! We all need to enjoy the last week of 2023 and just chill if we can!!! :bigsmile:

    Saw my last client of the year today and have just a bit of admin work in the next day or two. I have a final Christmas gathering on Saturday. After that, I'm done for the year.

    I'm heading off to do some stretching for the night.

    OH MY I am in trouble!!! I got My Name is Barbra (Barbra Streisand's memoir) for Christmas and I cannot put it down and it is 59 chapters long!! The way I see it, I have to get this read by Jan 1 so I can start my Walk and Talk challenge! :laugh: My steps are down and will no doubt go lower as I am reading this book constantly. It is so fascinating. She is something else!
    I'll get some steps in tomorrow though as Dennis has his cardio rehab and then we go to Aldi's for our NY's eve and day shop. I really only needed fresh produce, but Dennis decided he wants wings for NY eve and he found a recipe to make them low sodium so now I need to get chicken wings too!
    The rest of this week is getting my planner set up for 2024. I switched from At-A-Glance to the Happy Planner so we shall see. There is a learning curve every time I change planners so I do not do it often, but I needed a less work centered planner now that I do not have meetings and really time sensitive "To Do" lists. We'll see how this one works out.
    I am glad you are done for the year and can take a breather @Deeder522! I always loved the feeling of freedom when I submitted my grades at the end of the semester as my final administrative task!!! Enjoy your last task and the freedom you have when it is DONE! :bigsmile:

    I have been reading as I knew I would! In addition to Streisand's memoir (where I am already 200+ pages in), I also have Trevor Noah's memoir and Edward Trudeau's biography (he was one of the MDs who worked to fine a cure for TB) to read so my steps are taking a hit. I am such a non-fiction reader and my daughter-in-law sent me Kristin Hannah's, The Nightingale and I am seriously going to try to get into it. Novels tend to lose my interest quickly, but I promise I am going to TRY! :blush:
    We went to the transfer station and the recycling center today and when we got home, we brought in 8 loads of wood so we are all set to read and eat for the next 3 days!!! I already have more steps than I did yesterday! :laugh:
    Actually, Dennis and I have a practice that we have engaged in from the first year we were married. On New Year's Eve day, we get a glass of wine (or beer or a Manhattan for Dennis depending on mood) and we write down everything we accomplished in the prior year. We always look forward to it because we often forgot how much we accomplish year to year, even when we think all we did was "work, take care of children, clean, take car of cars, fuss at each other, get aggravated with our boys" etc etc etc. We look back at the goals we set for the year and often are surprised at how many of them we achieved. Then, we set the goals we have for the next year. It helps so much to have our goals in sync because often Dennis is thinking of some of the same things I am and we simply have not mentioned them to the other yet. On the other hand, sometimes our goals are not even on the other's radar! It is so nice to be working together toward the same goals. :bigsmile:

    It's a bit of a wild end to the work year. When clients try and do things independently only to find out what we do isn't easy. 🤦🏼‍♀️

    I have a gathering to go to tomorrow. I didn't have time or energy to make something so I picked up a selection of crackers and a Ham/Onion cheeseball.

    I've read a few of Kristen Hannah's books and liked them.
    I just finished "The Purest Bond" by Jen Goldbeck. It's about the human-dog connection. I follow her on Social Media. Her "snap" of life with her golden retrievers has been a nice happy spot in my day for a couple of years now.

    December Goals

    Mileage Goal 71 / 68
    Apple Challenge: Reach my daily exercise goal 8x. ( that's 20 Apple exercise minutes ) 8/ 8

    Not including today, I've tracked 967.5 miles this year.


    Well, I made it to the Christmas gathering. It was the 1st time in months that I've eaten food made by someone else. Hours later I threw up. I think it was either the Salad or the meatballs. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Either way, it wasn't what I was expecting.

    Tonight, we do nothing fancy for NYE maybe wear my best PJs for the ball drop. 🤣 I am looking forward to Our little walk challenge in January and want to find a small strength training routine to add in the new year.

    Happy New Year, @zichab and Dennis.

    I think Garmin gave up on me as they now show my goal steps as 4853 and they were 7478 at the beginning of the month! :laugh: Meh, it has been a relaxing fun month for us so there's that!
    I am looking forward to the 21 day challenge and I have my tracking sheet ready! I need to get my cardio back on track this month. I am going for 21 days, but I am hoping to work up to 30 minutes by the end of the month. In Feb, I'd like to get back to 30 minutes every other day. If I can do that, then in March, I want to do Leslie's Walk if Off in 30, which has the strength workout with weights every other day. Of course, I may totally be overestimating what I can actually do beyond carrying wood, so we shall see! :laugh:
    I hope Hannah's book is good because I will need to report to my daughter-in-law so I need to finish it. 986.7 miles!!!! Woo Hoo!!!! :+1: I have not added mine up but I am pretty sure thay are no where near 900 miles!!
    We did our priorities for next year and I have all the food for tonight ready! Off to celebrate with Mr. zichab!!! Happy New Year @Deeder522, Ryan and son as well as anyone else who is reading here incognito! :bigsmile:

    I used my step counter for about half of the month and then decided to take it off because some family was gonna stay with us through the holidays and other family members will be in and out. Plus the one staying with us has the two youngest ones, so they always want to be chased or to do the chasing around and lots of active playing also. I'll put it back on the first of January as the house will be sadly quiet again.
    I did a lot of extra cleaning/tidying up and moving things around in preparation for the family with young children who were staying here, as well as general Christmas preparations. It was a fun and active month.
    A belated Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays and any other special Celebration days that anyone is celebrating. See you all In January 2024!
