Good morning ~ The weekend is here!! Okay, my sleep has been a bit ridiculous. Yesterday, I got home around 3 and literally crashed on the couch, had dinner, then dozed until I went to bed then slept until after 5 this morning. This has been going on for a month or more. I could never fall asleep like that before. I was always too 'on' or aware to relax enough. I would rarely take an intentional nap in my bedroom, not on the couch. Who am I? Apparently I'm well rested. Today we are taking the dogs to the park for walk, Chloe to the groomers, UPS to mail SS gift, TJ's and Target. I may go to Old Navy to buy new jeans because mine are all too big! Not a bad problem to have. We are watching the Army Navy game and then Christmas movies. Rob is baking today. He ended up going with an old Betty Crocker Christmas cookie recipe that calls for cream of tartar... Have at it Mr.
QOTD - Do you use candles? Do you have a favorite brand or scent? I LOVE candles. I grew up with Yankee candles everywhere, my mom loved them and had a closet full of tapers and votives. They are the best IMO but so expensive that I'm put off. I prefer the jars and my favorites were Pumpkin, Balsam and sage and citrus but always tried the new ones - beachy/rain type ones. I picked up some Kohl's Sonoma candle jars for a steal that I'm enjoying right now. Autumn Hayride smells like pure Christmas. Snow, Pine, fresh heaven.
Accountability -I hit the Halo top ice cream in the freezer from Thanksgiving and had never opened. I ate 1/4 and threw it out. It was better than I thought it would be, not bad. 194 day 3
B- coffee x 4
l - grilled chicken and salad w/thai spicy chili dressing
d- TBD
Have a wonderful day!!

Yay for new jeans!! That is a fantastic problem to have!!
qotd - so many candles! My favorite right now are by a company called Mythologie Candles. Small company, woman owned, great quality, pricey but worth it. I have so many though!

Good morning!
EXCELLENT dinner and a great concert last night. The hot chocolate place was closed by the time the concert let out so I missed out on that. By mornings light, I?m happy that I did. Certainly didn?t need those empty calories. As it was I munched on about 10 bbq potato chips before going to bed.
Today we are meandering through the cowboy Christmas shops set up in the convention center. It?s huge so I?ll get a lot of steps, but no real exercise. Food will be a challenge all day. Everywhere we have in mind is not real calorie conscious friendly. I?m going to need to be very aware of what I pick.
QoTD. I absolutely love the glow of candles, and I have a display of them we light most evenings. But I rarely light a scented one. Not sure why.
Foods today are TBD.
Peace Everybody!
