Happy Early Christmas to me! (12/06/10)


I had a simply lovely weekend!! It started off with Mitch and I going to our local Christmas Tree Lighting celebration, followed by window shopping and then a perfect dinner. I allowed myself to splurge and enjoy myself completely! I didn’t think for a second that I missed my afternoon cardio session, or all the hollow calories I was enjoying with each sip of wine. I simply loved the time alone with him and the start of our Christmas celebrations.

Saturday morning I was having a hard time getting motivated to workout, so decided to play my motivation game. My motivation game is simply a chant I say to myself while I trying on my skinny jeans “if they are tight, I sweat – if they fit, I take the day off,” and to my amazed delight… I AM BACK IN MY SKINNY JEANS! Hallelujah!!!! All the time, pain and sweat has worked, I cannot be any happier, and it is just in time for all the LBD (little black dress) occasions of the season!!! Woohoo!!!!

So with that wonderful news, I took Saturday off and decided to decorate the house as best I could without our tree. The day was quite rainy so we canceled our plans to tree and garland shop, but I did get some festive lights on our indoor trees and around the porch. I also got everything I wanted on the mantel, so all it needs is the garland, and I did get the dining table’s center piece all set. The house looks great so far, if I do say so myself.

Sunday morning I was back to being motivated, but only started my workout with the first football game of the day so Mitch would not miss out on our lazy Sunday start. As for the rest of the day, it was filled with the typical end of the weekend chores and lots of R&R.

Here is hoping you guys all had a great weekend too, that you are all getting into the holiday spirit and that your Monday is off to a wonderful start.

Cheers!
