What's on Your Wednesday Menu, RNYers?
Good Morning! So, it's food day here at the office. Again. LOL This one is our "Christmas Luncheon", but people have been stuffing their faces for a while already, so... For real, there's so much food here. Bagels, too, which I believe are my kryptonite. BUT, I'm determined to stay strong and eat my yogurt and chicken salad and ignore all the carby food that's about 4 feet away.
I feel like a Grinch, but I can't wait for the holidays to be over. There's too much pressure to be joyful and whatnot and I just don't have it in me this year. Our tree's not even decorated and I don't care. Oh well.
Time since surgery: 1 day shy of 17 months

Have a great Wednesday!
Good morning! I will be happy to see the holidays gone too. All these Christmas cookies and candy are killing me! Actually its my lack of willpower that is killing me. I need an intervention. I will be happy when I start triathlon training again next month. It gives me focus and a goal, two things I am severely lacking right now. I think even my hubbie is concerned at my lack of exercise lately (thats when you know you've been slacking).
Let me know how that Chiptotle Black Bean burger is, I love the spicy BB burgers :)
QOTD: Do you buy yourself Christmas gifts? I really want new makeup but the only way I can justify it is if I say its "my christmas gift to me". Thoughts?

There are always 'Merry Christmas to me' gifts. Bought a Vince Camuto crossbody at the outlets last weekend. I get gifts at Christmas but not being married of having a SO, I am the only one who is going to buy me significant gifts....

I buy myself stuff all the time; I don't need a holiday. LOL But, I will say that I don't drop big coin on the things I do buy for myself. I say you should treat yourself to new makeup!
I always buy myself something when I am Christmas shopping, thought I haven't yet this year. Actually the bag I bought for my older daughter came today, I like it very much and may have to buy the same one for myself. It is just what I was looking for, the right size, shape and color and was not very expensive at all.
I also treat myself here and there to little indulgences, heck, I work hard for my money, I don't drink, smoke or do drugs; books, bags and shoes are my indulgences.
Buy yourself the makeup, you work hard and you deserve to spend a little on yourself.
