Also, hi! New position is going well, but it keeps me busy! We're dealing with a flooded basement again, and I got up have lunch with M at school today.

We had a snow day here today. About 6 inches came down heavily in the early hours of the morning. Perfect snow for packing. We played in the snow, sledded down the small hill in our front yard, made snowmen, threw snowballs, made snow angels. Came in and made cookies and hot chocolate. The kids then watched Frozen while I went in to work for a couple hours. It was so nice to have a day off with them. And great timing since DH is away for 5 days and I didn't have to deal with the morning rush myself today.

CestLaVie , oh that's the worst. do you have a brace for it? Yup I do. It has gotten much better over the last week. I think I caught it pretty early so I am just doing my best not to aggravate it. ie deleting all the puzzle apps off of my phone so I dont lay with my arm like that for an hour at night

I'm living the brace life until I'm done with crazy hormones due to nursing and then maybe I'll check out the acupuncture for myself.

CestLaVie are you doing exercises in addition up the brace? When my carpal tunnel flairs up I do the exercises and they really make a difference.

RunsforWineandCarbs I started Liift 4 this week. I didn’t do the program in the days I was suppose to so I’m looking forward to doing that next week and getting the weekend off. Haha. I like it. My only complaint is I like when the workouts have the timer, especially with the ab workouts that are 30 sec. it’s going to make listening to audio books a little more challenging.

Waving hello and Happy belated Thanksgiving. I've been an occasionally dirty lurker due to some life quagmires, but I'm still around.

Mostly just consumed with work/parenting/having a sick parent. Going from no kids to one kid was harder but going from 1 kid to 2 kids has been a bigger time-suck.

My new position really limits my time here. I love it, but that's my trade off. I've also been reading Michelle Obama's book recently, which is fantastic.
I just took a quick trip to Nashville to meet up from friends from the IF board. So much fun.

Hi all! We need to bring some life back to this board! We had a great first night of Hanukkah with the kids last night. We made homemade latkes (so delicious!), lit the menorah, and the kids loved their presents. The girls each got a Calico Critters family with a tree house for the animals to play in, and DS got matchbox cars with a toy gas station. So much good food yesterday too! Can't wait to eat leftovers.

45thparallel, they (people not affiliated with race) were giving out beer. I grabbed a cup. Then about 4 miles later some more guys were giving out beer, said welcome to the neighborhood. I think that was mile 10. I had more...lol why not right?
