Christmas Day

I decided to drive home to sleep last night. (It's only an hour away.) Because I would sleep better in my own bed, instead of sleeping on the couch, or the floor.

I got up, and over to my brother's around 1pm. Hung out with the kids & my parents. Read the paper. There weren't many ads in the newspaper, surprisingly. I remember as a kid, at my grandparents' house, flipping through the HUGE newspaper, checking out all the after Christmas specials!

We ate dinner about 5pm. It was good, and pretty healthy. (Lucky for me, my brother has diabetes & my mom has high cholesterol, so the food's usually quite healthy!! ... not so lucky for me because I have to be careful not to get those problems!)

I've got another week before the X starts! Fortunately, I've been working at "cleaning up my environment" (a Weight Watcher's term) ... dumping the not so good for me foods. I've been using Dr. Oz's recommendations for the 1st 5 ingredients to determine if I keep or toss an item. The kitchen cupboards will be ready for my stricter eating that will have to happen on the P90X program.
