Yay! The gift knitting is done! Not only that but I got all the presents wrapped and Christmas cards addressed and everything has been mailed. I survived and I am ready to celebrate Christmas. I am ready to relax, take a nap, read a book and knit my own stuff without any deadlines.
Other than that, A lot is going on in my life. I did turn the big 3-0 a little over a week ago. I feel pretty good. I feel like myself, not any older or wiser but where I should be. I like it. My husband also made sure I had a WONDERFUL birthday, surprising me with lovely jewelry and a romantic dinner in the City at The Melting Pot.
Because it is Christmas, this holiday season seems to have complicated two things I am working on. Maintaining my girlish figure and saving money. All those treats to eat and presents to buy! How can a girl resist when its covered in chocolate and on SALE! Yes, shopping and eating are one and the same for me. Two of my favorite things, yet something everyone needs to control to some extent. So, I am still sticking to my diet with the "occasional" treat and or fast food. Also, now that I have finished my Christmas shopping, I am done spending money. Money-wise I think I did pretty good, food wise, I'm taking it day-by-day. I did lose 2 pounds though and also discovered I fit in a pair of pants from 2 sizes ago. So that made me happy.
So as today, December 20th, 2011, only 3 more days until Christmas, I am ready and I hope everyone else is too.
Merry Early Christmas Everyone.
