Only a few days left! In fact, you will probably have to do the last few days of check ins without me as I am leaving town on Friday! SO, SO much to do between now and when we take off! And, today my baby turns ONE! Talk about time flying by! We have a party this afternoon and then I have to get moving on packing for our trip!

Other than MORE cleaning and cooking for the party - I did 15 minutes of vigorous riding on my bike last night. Not much but something at least. I have to take what I can get some days!

And, thanks for the ideas on my tiredness yesterday. I do take a multivitamin daily. I haven't had a chance to track my calories lately so I'm not sure if I might not be getting enough. And, I'm sure that I never get enough hours of sleep at night. Hopefully after the holidays things will settle down some and I can get back into a better routine.

+++POSITIVE THOUGHTS+++!!! :flowerforyou:

    Niccole have a great holiday! I, too, have a December baby. He turned 22 on the 14th.

    Happy b-day to your baby, NIccole!

    Today is a light cardio day (probably a dance DVD) and weights for 30 minutes.

    Also, walking at the . . . (gasp). . . mall. Ugh. I am paying for my procrastination.

    5 miles of walking yesterday to prepare for my own trip - leaving the same day as Nicole - any chance you're coming to Texas, Nicole? I'm going to Colorado - we could switch states.

    Since I won't be anywhere near a computer for 10 days, I'm not counting calories. My goal is to do 500 calories of exercise a day. Since there won't be any treadmills or ellipticals during the road trip, I'm going to count 100 calories / mile - 5 miles a day.

    This will really test my determination as I'm not used to cold weather. I thought of trying the indoor malls to walk in, but alas, I forgot what time of year it is... I can hear my impatient self now "MOVE... PEOPLE"

    So it's walking outside in 30 degree weather. Hmmm. Going through Palo Duro Canyon, maybe that will motivate me to walk around - but NOT if it's snowing. We south Texans are a bit afraid of the snow.

    Happy Birthday to the baby Nicole, my december baby (the 6th) turned 28! Hope you enjoy the your trip. My only exercise was walking around Wal_Mart last night forever. I wasn't shopping alone. I didn't get to the post yesterday. Doing double duty at work, bosses out for a week. Merry Christmas Julie,Vivia, and Mary:smile: ~Karen
