New Year’s Resolutions have never really been my cup of tea. But this year I am diving in, head first, with the promise of putting down the smoking of cigarettes that I have been participating in for way too long. The price of tobacco products has just gotten crazy and I’m tired of paying the high prices for something that is totally unhealthy for me. Wish me luck!
I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!
Our plans include a short visit with family Christmas morning and then an afternoon at home cooking a nice Christmas dinner and baking some cookies. I have been baking cookies every few days for the past couple of weeks and they never last more than one night! So my vision of having a big plates of assorted cookies on Christmas is just not going to happen. But I will have some kind of cookies on a plate tonight – and then I will have to stop baking for a couple of months while we all go on diets to lose these extra 10 pounds we have gained since Thanksgiving!
Something that I have always wanted to try was a body wrap. I think I’ll have to start hinting to my husband that for one of the up and coming holidays, such as my birthday, mother’s day and our anniversary, that I would really like to give these cool body wraps that you can use at home a shot and see if they can help me with the few added pounds that I have put on these past few years.
I know that a woman of my age is expected to put a few extra pounds on around the mid section, but I don’t like it one bit and would really appreciate getting back to my original weight this year and preferably before summer when I will be going out in public in my bathing suit.
One of my favorite channels that we subscribe to with DirecTV is the Discovery Channel. I have had it on for most of the day here in the living room as I spend some time on the computer and have seen a lot of good nature shows today.
The History Channel and Animal Planet are high on my list also. I’m finding myself watching these channels more and more these days, a sign of aging I assume, sigh……
