I'm proud of myself! I am right on the time schedule for Christmas, getting things done early.
Well, it does help that no baking will be happening on my part. Diabetes sort of eliminates the sugary treats. Cards are almost ready to mail, as well as sending a few boxes out via USPS. Gifts
have been bought and are ready for wrapping.
I feel more in tune with the holiday spirit than I did last year. And all without yummies. Yes,
I do miss the cookies. But I am 27 pounds less than I was in March of 2015. I imagine that I will
indulge somewhat, but I did the same on Thanksgiving and the 2 added pounds came right back off.
New Years resolution? Actually commit to getting regular exercise..for me that means walking. It's done wonders in the past. I just miss the old dirt roads and the trees which gave you a feeling of a private walk in the woods. Lol, back in those days I walked so often that on Halloween several people in the neighborhood said "Oh! You are the walker!" (btw, not a reference to the Walking Dead.)
My anniversary date for one year with Blackstone is fast approaching as well, December 8. There is no yearly merit increase with this company. Makes me wonder why any of their employees would strive to do better. The only raise that they give out is what the union says they must pay and that is in August. Truly, they are the cheapest company I have ever worked for.
I hope to write something more before Christmas, but in case I do not, I hope that all of you can
spend Christmas with someone that you love.
