<\/p>\nMerry Christmas to you! <\/p>\n
I got up early this morning, before 7:30am. :o\u00a0 And got things together so I could be out the door for my run.\u00a0 Rocky was taken care of and it was chilly so I knew that I would have to bundle up for my outing.<\/p>\n
I was starving when I woke up but knew I wanted to get the run done before anything else today.\u00a0 I tried eating 1\/2 a Clif bar but it wasn’t going down so well, so I passed on it and just headed out sans food in my bellah.<\/p>\n
I did the usual 3.5 miles and it was awesome!\u00a0 It was slow going because I was tired and hungry but I was glad to be out nonetheless.\u00a0 It was chilly and a perfect morning for a run. I only saw a few other people out walking their dogs but not too many.\u00a0 It was really quiet and a nice peaceful run.<\/p>\n
I came back and waited to take Rocks for a walk because Scott and I would be taking him later.\u00a0 I changed and then tried to decide on what to eat.<\/p>\n

<\/a>breakfast<\/p><\/div>\n
I wanted to wait and have coffee when Scott got up, so I decided to have my CS<\/abbr> with breakfast.\u00a0 However, there’s only a little bit and I was too lazy to run down to the basement to get more.\u00a0 I had already been up and down, up and down, because I prepped the rib roast we are having for dinner tonight.\u00a0 And I just didn’t feel like going back downstairs yet again.\u00a0 In the bowl is some 2% fage and a small bit of banana nut granola.<\/p>\n I must say it really didn’t do anything for my hunger. I was able to ignore the hunger though because I focused on making us some breakfast.\u00a0 Traditionally we’ve had a breakfast casserole on Christmas day.\u00a0 The kind that has lots of eggs, cream, and bread where it soaks overnight and then you bake it the next morning.\u00a0 I would not be able to stomach such a dish this year and the idea of eating all that bread seemed kind of icky.\u00a0 Instead, I made us a casserole without bread.\u00a0 Still eggs, 1\/2 & 1\/2, cheese, and breakfast sausage, but with WW<\/abbr> pastry flour to hold it all together and some spinach for extra veg.\u00a0 I cleaned up the kitchen while it was cooking and then once it was done I kept it in the oven to stay warm till Scott got up.<\/p>\n I sat down on the couch and started watching A Christmas Story which is one of my very favorite all time movies.\u00a0 It was a late find for me because I don’t remember this movie growing up.\u00a0 I didn’t watch it until I was in college!\u00a0 I was on the couch with my laptop hanging out but I was also freezing cold!\u00a0 It’s because my body was a bit cold and sweaty from my run, leaving me having a hard time warming up.\u00a0 I finally decided I wasn’t waiting for Scott and poured myself some coffee. Not long after I finished my coffee Scott got up.\u00a0 I headed up for a super quick shower and then it was time to open presents!\u00a0 Kids go first in our house, so Rocky was up.<\/p>\n Mom, those are my toys!<\/p><\/div>\n That’s us!\u00a0 I’m trying to clean up everything and get more organized. :p\u00a0 That’s his big huge stuffed cow.\u00a0 He loves it!\u00a0 She’s very sweet though so I may have to steal her so she doesn’t get totally destroyed. Scott got me a whole bunch of amazing things that will be shown here and there.\u00a0 One of them is a wee Edward Gorey book.\u00a0 If you don’t know who he is, here is a website<\/a> of information.\u00a0 He got me a Tinies book and the book is even tiny!\u00a0 So cute.<\/p>\n And I also got this bad boy:<\/p>\n Back in your hole!<\/p><\/div>\n Hell yeah!\u00a0 He’s a foot tall and he talks!\u00a0 Plus he comes with both of his guns, the chainsaw one and the handgun.\u00a0 Awesome!<\/p>\n After opening all the prezzies it was time to eat and thankfully because I was starving!<\/p>\n\u00a0 It was perfectly hot and perfectly minty mochay.\u00a0 Hooray! <\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
