Yesterday, we hosted 24 family members. Lots of little children in our home. It was so much fun!
Hopefully, you will spend the holidays with family in wherever you love to be.

I spent the weekend relaxing and recovering from last week yet after one day I'm exhausted again. Not getting exercise in but keeping good choices at a good level. Today started with a visit to the vet with my dog. He is a 10 year old Labrador who has been showing signs of joint issues from very young. With my vet we have managed to keep it will under control for many years but today he started chronic pain meds. Luckily me parents can keep an eye on him for me when I'm at work and force him to rest a bit. Despite obvious pain and limping he will run around like a crazy thing when he gets excited.
Work wasn't too chaotic although there were some issues with changing valves etc while the technical guy is on leave and two of our seals were not in a cooperating mood. Neither are aggressive but do require an experienced hand in the situations, which meant me everytime. I did get to show my friends the snakes and spiders thigh we is always fun.
And then family dinner because my brother arrived for Christmas. Dad, bro and I are watching Star Wars tomorrow afternoon. Mon is not a fan.6 -

Yes x 3. Today was barre class and a walk, plus some dedicated lower body muscle work. I am juggling my schedule to accommodate 15 - 20 minutes daily for strength training 6 days a week. They say it is SO important. I wish it were more fun! I would like to hear from others about their thoughts and routines for strength training. I can swim a mile but struggle with the lowest weights.

An hour of spin and an hour of strength but I didn’t do a good job logging and as a family we decided to just eat the whole box of chocolates we were gifted just to get rid of them. I’m probably not too bad on calories but all of that sugar is going to make the scale spike tomorrow.
Pass #51 -

Exercise: Y 90 minute 16 mile bike ride
Calories: Y 1533/1800+ 845 exercise calories
Tracked: Y
Though I would switch things up a bit today and get on my bike for the first time in about 8 weeks. I had planned to ride on the trail, but it was tougher going than I expected. It’s not paved and was soft and still had some snow in places. Ended up riding the roads on the way back. Even though I have not ridden in almost 2 months it did seem a little easier going up the hills 20 pounds lighter than last time.4 -

Very stressed regarding a situation. I worked and then went to bed and ate nothing today due to stress.1 -
Yes x 3
Another short 25 minute walk. And a long 7 hour drive through Lewis Pass. It is absolutely stunning and very humbling!
We always go away every Christmas. It started when the very first Christmas with my inlaws tuned into a cross country drive to satisfy everyone's need and I absolutely hated it. The next year, I quietly booked us a trip to Wales over Christmas and New Year and it's become our tradition. Now the kids are here, it makes life a wholelot easier. We don't give presents(travel with only backpacks) and go somewhere new every year.
We're on a 2 week road trip now so have all the family with us and keep in touch with the rest via Skype and WhatsApp.
As we're swapping our way round, (5 house swaps) each house has been like a new present! Our current swap is a working farm, we've collected eggs, baked ginger bread men, met the locals (chickens, sheep and some goats) - the children have also been given rides on the tractor! They love it!1 -
