105lbs! :o\u00a0 And I did lunges and some other thing I don&#8217;t know the name of.\u00a0 Also a little bit of arm and ab work.\u00a0 Sadly this will be my last few sessions coming up.\u00a0 For lots of reasons, one of those being to save money and put what&#8217;s going to <abbr class='c2c-text-hover' title='Physical Therapy'>PT<\/abbr> towards something else.\u00a0 I&#8217;m bummed because that means no more <abbr class='c2c-text-hover' title='Physical Therapy'>PT<\/abbr> but okay with it because it means money for plans we have for the house and other things.<\/p>\n<p>After <abbr class='c2c-text-hover' title='Physical Therapy'>PT<\/abbr> we ran to the Eddie Bauer warehouse store and OHMERCY!\u00a0 I can&#8217;t even begin to tell you how ecstatic I am about all the things I bought!\u00a0 I should take a picture for you so you can see. <img src='\/images\/biggrin.gif' alt=':D' \/>\u00a0 I didn&#8217;t find any pants but I got a ton of shirts which look awesome on me!\u00a0 Totally replaces all the shirts I have that I&#8217;m swimming in.\u00a0 These are flattering and sooo pretty and comfy!\u00a0 I also got a very pretty long skirt and a new purse!\u00a0 I am so picky about purses.\u00a0 The last one I got when we were there is nice but a bit too small.\u00a0 This one is perfect and such a pretty green!\u00a0 Green used to be my favorite color and then I moved to blue but now I&#8217;m leaning towards green again.\u00a0 :p\u00a0 Two of the shirts I bought are a nice blue though!\u00a0 Oh and I got an awesome sweater for $10!\u00a0 Love the warehouse!\u00a0 Plus we had a 20% coupon, wheee!<\/p>\n<p>I had to hurry it up though because Scott was getting very very hangry.\u00a0 He also scored some pants and two shirts.\u00a0 And both of us got some very toasty gloves.\u00a0 I was starving as well and decided to make some oats!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1929\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a

today!\u00a0 So I had one clementine and and one carrot.\u00a0 That filled me right up.\u00a0 I went up to shower and after my shower I started another load of laundry.\u00a0 Then it was off with Rocks for a super quick walk because it was nasty cold and windy outside.<\/p>\n<p>Once back I did a little bit of work and then I started supper prep.\u00a0 I had a huge acorn squash and a little dumpling squash that needed used up, so I decided to give a go with the soup that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hangrypants.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hangry Pants<\/a> had for Thanksgiving.\u00a0 I roasted that in the oven with an onion and two apples, red delicious and granny smith.\u00a0 I tossed them in some olive oil, S&amp;P, garlic powder, and chili powder.\u00a0 It smelled so good as it roasted!\u00a0 Then I pureed everything up in the food processor and transferred it to a big soup pot.\u00a0 I used chicken broth instead of veggie, because I like it better.\u00a0 A little bit more seasoning and let it simmer for a while.\u00a0 While it was simmering I cleaned up the kitchen and did all the dishes.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1931\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption

salamis and a slice of cheddar.\u00a0 Yeah I know they aren&#8217;t the best, but for the holidays we like having snackies around (also I&#8217;m experimenting with recipes!) so here they are.\u00a0 Plus you all know about my lurve for sausages and that includes salami.\u00a0 The other lunchmeat I had turned so I had to toss it.\u00a0 Dinner was really yummy!\u00a0 I was iffy on the soup but once it simmered and the ingredients got to hang for a bit it got much better.\u00a0 The apple was a little potent for me but Scott loved it so I&#8217;m guessing most people would dig it.\u00a0 Croutons
