Cold

The title of this post completely sums up today. It's cold outside, it's cold inside, it's even cold in my furry leopard print house shoes (which by the way, I am wearing). I'm sitting in "my" (it's shared) office at work, eating my turkey sandwich and freezing. I have my house shoes on, a blanket wrapped around my legs, a hoodie and my coat on. I don't know if the heat is completely out or if it's just not working well today. Oh well. Only 3 hours and 45 mins. left:)

Today started my goal of eating better and losing weight. I got up at 5 AM and went to the Y and worked out before work. Thankfully my parents decided to buy a 25 pound turkey for Christmas dinner so I will be enjoying turkey sandwiches forever! I'm actually looking forward to working towards my goals for the year. I don't think I've ever had long term goals and actually met them, so I'm pretty determined that 2010 will be the year that I do. I enjoy my routine (even though I love the unknown) and seem to stay more focused when I have one. I'm really trying to create that kind of environment during my work week so I can actually do this stuff. I have more goals than just to get healthy-er but that's enough of that for now.

I have several trips I would like to take this year. Chicago, Boston, even a few days trips here and there to go hiking or just to see more of Tennessee (or anything that's fairly close). Apparently this out doorsy thing is going to stick so we'll see how that works out! ha I'm also going to Little Rock in a few weeks (pending my shifts get covered at the Y) and I think the family vacation is Gulf Shores in May or June. Andrea is getting married the first weekend of June so it will be back to Little Rock for that. I think Colorado is still being tossed around for Christmas, but I'm really not a huge fan of that one. I want to go there but I really don't want to go for Christmas.

I think I'm going to take a walk around the building (inside of course!) and try to warm up. My fingers are like chubby little icicles!
