Team Vixen - Dec. Limiter Challenge (Page 76)

Yikes, bundle up!  Brrrrr!

I've had a great day with the family.  I spent 3 hours putting together a marble mania set Cole got from my in laws.  I think they hate me! That took my run time and now I'm cooking Christmas dinner.  Sort of.  It's in the oven.

Oops, I never answered this Ales go best with beef. Not pale ales or IPAs, which are really hoppy and sometimes a little citrusy, but classic ales. Or christmas/holiday/winter ales which are out right now and always very yummy!

I did it, I finally endured a real outdoor run. It was ffffffffreeeeeezzzzing! Was 14, feels like 7 and my dad said his car thermostat said -7. Who knows. I was ok on top but my legs and butt literally went numb! My face, forget it. But it felt so good to get outside and the sun on the snow was beautiful. I really want to love winter....

Got in a little ab and shoulder workout too. Wine time!

Wow! that is quite the set up!

C set up his own   we got him Rock Band, world tour - he is happy as a clam!

nice job!

enjoy your bottle serving of wine

x2!  What's on tap for tonight?  My serving is 2/3's gone.  Nice red, no white Christmas for me!

we played a little trivial pursuit - it was sort of a disaster

now the kids are playing guitar hero world tour, and I'm starting to get a headache...........

yep, time for life to go back to 'normal'

did you have a nice day?

I really did.  The kids were fantastic all day.  I don't think I have ever seen them behave so nicely.  They were kind to each other all day.  They took turns playing the new Wii without complaining....weird!  It was fabulous.  They didn't even complain when it was dinner and they didn't like what I made.  Talk about the best Christmas ever!    My Christmas spirit might have been M.I.A. but it didn't matter.  I have the three best children anyone could ever ask for and the best hubby ever.  I am truly blessed.  

Now, don't tell anyone I said that.  It will ruin my reputation!

It was red for me as well We had a Barbaresco, a Merlot, Cab and another Cab but not as good. I'm moving on to Cognac now

Dang, if I were closer, I'd be on my way over!   Just two Cab's over here. 

Me too!  I have spent most of today playing with Lego's and the Wii.  I must run....I'm headed out at 3:00.  Now, hold me to it Vixens!

Yeah Erica!  Looks like we both went out at 3 today.  I too feel sooo much better for having gotten a run in.  Nothing too long but enough to feel like I actually did something.

What's on tap for tonight?

I got on the scale today......UGH!!!!  I was not happy with the holiday pounds I gained.  Sooooo, no wine or yummy food for me for the next week, I'll splurge for New Years and then back to nothing!  Sigh, I'll miss my wine.... 

Too much food still in my house not to eat it...  but I have sent some home with people... my brother has kindly volunteered to take whatever we can pack him up home with him tomorrow...

Evenin' vixens- Given everyone's scale experiences I can only conclude that there has been a sudden increase in the earth's gravitational field and it is best that I not weigh myself until the new year.

Kristin- glad to hear that your ear is better. 

For those experienced runners I need advice: I am looking at runnning plans. Hyannis (2/22/09) will be my first half.  Several of the programs have the maximum long run at10 miles.  Is this long enough or should I use a program that has a 12 mile longest run. I am nervous but also don't want to do too much and risk getting injured.  I am babying my knees as it is.
