Pie Day

Today is bake-the-pies day.  I'm not a huge fan ... even with Christmas music to keep me company.  And it's start-wrapping-presents day.  Everything is purchased, just needs to be wrapped.  Also a back breaking activity.

Before it all starts, YOGA.  I haven't done any yoga in months.  Wish me luck lol!

Cleaning ladies this morning so we all need to make ourselves scarce.  Starbucks it is ... for a little while at least.  (Unfortunately, yoga doesn't start until later.)  I have such a love-hate relationship with cleaning day.

My neck is still a problem.  It feels great when I workout, but that's the only time.  It's giving me such a headache.  Not very fun.  Advil is barely helping and I'm not thrilled to take it round-the-clock.

Yesterday was another good eating day.  It feels so good.  I woke up ahead of my alarm today ... that's what eating healthy does for me.  Today is my last mandated "no treats" day.  I'll have to make some "worth it" decisions for the 3 days of Christmas celebrations. I'd like to say I have it under control, but who knows.  As it stands, my plan was to indulge a bit Christmas Eve, on track Christmas and indulge Boxing Day (when we have a big group over).

Did I mention I'm sick of the on-off, on-off, on-off of these last 3 months?  Feel good, feel less-good ... and repeat.  I really need to take a minute and "work" the worth-it method.  Indulging is feeling less-worth-it right now and maybe it is.  (I don't want to regret not celebrating though ... that can backfire too.)  Oh the joys of my mixed up brain thinking lol!

Still plugging along with War and Peace. I'm almost finished the first of three volumes.  The further I read, the more determined I am to finish.  I want bragging rights lol!  I've wasted taken up a lot of time ... finishing makes it worth-it.

With Christmas on a Sunday, I'm so mixed up with my days-of-the-week this week.  Today feels like Christmas Eve.  It's like a bonus day (to get everything done).  The list is still too long, but I did a lot ahead (thankfully).  I'm on the final stretch.  Best get at it.  Later gators.
