This year has been MUCH better for me than 2009.
In 2009 I lost my job and both of my grandpas. I’m so glad that year is over.
In 2010 great things happened!
The house of my dreams and I got a job!
Now I wonder what 2011 will bring??

My dream house
I tell myself every holiday that I won’t over do it. Sure people say that is what the holidays are for blah blah….My body type simply CANNOT handle sweets for 3 consecutive days. Remember my post about being happy with my body?

It’s almost like I like plumping up so I can lose it again or something. Don’t worry, after this salt leaves my body in a week i’ll feel better

I had a fabulous Christmas! My top present was a new laptop. Thank goodness! Mine was running super slow..not this one YIPPEE!
.
I’m not doing anything tomorrow for New Year’s Eve. To me it’s like another birthday or something. I use to go all out watch the ball drop sometimes not remember the night before but not this year. What are you plans?
Work has been crazy the last couple of weeks. Trying to schedule around holidays is a beeyotch! I still thank God every night that I have a job so I won’t complain too much. I’m super excited about this Christmas. I used to live 2 mins from my family and now this hour stuff is for the birds. I absolutely love it up her and love my house. I sometimes don’t believe it’s my house until I see the lumps of black lab hair everywhere.
.
Now it’s cooking day! Here’s what i’m making for Christmas eve at my mom’s. She makes a TON of stuff so I don’t have to do that much.

I’m also making some treats for the dogs. My neighbor brought some over for Boomer and she loves them. Noel Nibbles
Then for Mike’s family’s Christmas here’s what i’m making. She is just having finger foods.
Bacon and cheese dip YUM!
Fudge of course
.
What’s your spread looking like? I need to remember that certain thing make my stomach upset so I need to stay away.
Thanks to Navita Naturals for sending me the above to sample. Here’s what I received:
The hemp seeds are GREAT in a salad or just snagged out of the bag.
The trail mix is potent. Wow, i’m not a big dried fruit lover anyway. The berries are really tart. I gave them to a lady I work with and she really liked it.
The lip balm tastes like cacao. I really need this for the winter time!
Blah…i’m hibernating. This weather SUCKS!! Driving 20 mph SUCKS!! You know what doesn’t suck? My workouts WOO! I’m still on fire! Maybe i’ll melt some of this snow. Seriously…the northern part of Indiana is shut down. This means my job is sucking too. No parts, no product.
I did get out Saturday night for our friends Christmas party. It was a blast! The hit of the party wasn’t the caramel cheetos, fudge, corn casserole or the vodka punch although it was VERY good. It was the “punch bowl” I told Mike to get. He ended up getting this HA!
Mike tends to be a metrosexual but when I saw this I teased him of moving up to the next tier
.
Did you hear the news? Ryan Reynolds is on the market! Well, they’re seperated but still WOOHOO!
First and foremost…enter my giveaway HERE!
.
I had THE best shoulder workout I think i’ve ever had tonight. Man, I was REALLY focused and went slow. It rocked! It’s amazing how powerful our minds are.
This morning you know I was up for some early morning cardio. I think I did 53 mins. Then I made my oatmeal sandwich YUM!
.
So I’ve been a little wishy washy on posting lately. Feeling puffy, feeling good, feeling bloated, feeling good. Well….I got my monthly oil change today! I would say it’s a week early but since i’m not regular anymore i’m not sure what to think? That just goes to show Doctors suck and they may get a lucky diagnosis sometimes but 80% of the time I think they just suck. They get peeved at me because I WON’T take Provera but look at me now! I started on my own LOL! Some natural supplements that my trainer prescribed and things are working again. YIPPEE!!

I find serial killers VERY intriguing. I watch those shows over and over and over.
I’m making caramel cheetos this weekend for a Christmas party and I WILL eat a few.
.
I gave Boomer a Jumbbone so she wouldn’t bother me while i’m typing this post. She has been VERY full of energy lately.
.
You wouldn’t be caught dead, where? Using a port o potty for me YUCK! I’d drop trou and squat in the grass.

Yep, I have them. I love when my legs feel like this! They were shaky before I got on the treadmill for 10 mins of intervals. I got up to 9 mph for 30 secs but there was NO WAY I was hitting that 10 today. Have I mentioned I love heavy lifting
In about a month i’ll be over it HA! I’ll want the circuits back.
I’ll be walking like this guy tomorrow.
On top of my awesome leg workout I did an awesome cardio this morning. I’ll post it below but first I want to remind you to sign up for the $25 gift certificate giveaway from Oh Nuts!!

19 days until Christamas are you done shopping? I’m not. I still need to get Mike a few things and my mom something. I know what I am getting them I just need to get out and get it! I HATE crowds.
Thank you so much for your comments on the pic below. I have to remind myself that those jeans won’t always fit like this.
It’s so hard for me to get and stay tiny. I know alot of people talk about “on season” and “off season”. I think this term is mainly for girls WANTING to build muscle. You NEED to eat to build muscle. This doesn’t mean eating pizza and bread which is what alot of these girls do and that’s okay. For me I want to be little all the time. I don’t want the ups and downs anymore. I am not mentally capable of handling an “off season” body. Sure I can’t look like the above picture but i’m looking for the happy medium. I’m not saying that above picture isn’t possible either. It is but my body does NOT want to be like that. It fights me all the way. I’m not a rock star.
.
In another aspect I look back to when I started with Dreambodies. I was 136 lbs and felt like junk. Now i’m about 120. I need to SEE that i’m in much better shape now. OMG…I admit I haven’t checked the homepage for awhile and when I did I saw my fat self!! LOL!!!! Wow, now that will get me working out today
.
Yesterday was a rest day. My activities involved dancing around the living room with Mike and playing in the snow with Boomer.
.
Today i’m going to do a circuit I saw on Gina Aliotti’s website. Her site is AWESOME btw.
.

It did snow here. Like 4″!! It was very pretty and the roads don’t look bad. Did it snow in your area? If you live in Cali or Flordia i’m jealous.
