Merry Christmas Gang!!!

Hope you all had a Merry day!  I sure did.  My girlies and my SIL came over and we ate, and took awesome pictures, and opened gifts and picked on the cat (always the highlight of our day!)  Now it's quiet.  The quiet hurts my ears.  I could go turn on the Stereo but I'm too lazy.  I could go pester the Mister, who is watching reruns of Duck Dynasty.  Too lazy for that too.  I could be studying my course.... how to write better and faster and smarter and....   I can't get the program to open.  Story of my life.  This course is going to teach me how to manipulate this computer better, in regards to writing.... but I can't manipulate it enough to Get To the Program.  Is there any hope for me???

I'm also in the midst of a Diet/Exercise plan.  (I am always in the midst of something.  I get bored and jump on board with something else.)  But this one is showing me Exactly HOW MUCH protein I need to be eating in each meal (based on my body weight and such) and exactly how many grams of carbs, and grams of fat.  And guess what?  I'm not getting anywhere NEAR enough protein.  I mean, I was only getting about a fourth of what I need.  So I am stepping it up!  And I dare say, I think it is making a difference!  Haven't lost any weight, but I am getting stronger (guess that's what happens when you stick to a mild weight lifting regimen.  And I am able to skip my naps most of the time.  Meaning... more energy.  I'm pretty thrilled about that!!    I told the Mister that all I wanted for Christmas was TIME.  More time in each day to do all the things I love to do.  Write and sew and declutter (actually I Do love to do that.... Once I get started.  It's the starting that is the hard part.) and work in the yard, and visit friends, and exercise, and volunteer, and research on the web, and, and, and.....   Oh yeah... sleep.  I do love to sleep.  But it cuts into all that other stuff.  What's a NitaB to do???  Guess I'll just do my best to utilize my 24 hours wisely and Enjoy the heck out of all of them.  Sounds like a plan!!

Are you working on your New Year's Resolutions yet?  I am ... before the New Year.  Whatcha think about that?  Jump start.  And the starting part is the hard part - for me... so I am excited to be able to say, My New Years resolutions are to stick to the plans I started working on Two Weeks ago.  I think I may stick to them this time!!!   Want to join me?  You still have  almost a week left to get your jump start going!!!!

Enjoy the rest of your Blessed Christmas Day, and I'll talk to you later.... in the New Year!!!  :)
