Yes Virginia, there will be a Christmas (Wii!)

Post Christmas update -

Blood sugar testing: Fell off the wagon again. Ugh. Hate doing this. I started doing my fasting at work first thing but then that prevents me from having a real breakfast at home. Need to find a better routine.

Shoes: Finally replaced my old, possibly spider infested "running" shoes this weekend. Nothing fantastic, but a serviceable pair. Can't wait to break them in.

Health: Caught a cold on the 21st and haven't done anything mildly cardio- since then. Just working on trying to get my breathing back. Feeling better today, finally. Excited to ....

Wii: Between the $400 after taxes from the H1N1 vaccine clinic Saturday work and some money from the parents we scraped together enough to get some Xmas presents for each other (and tires and some other car maintenance) - oh the Best Buy and Sears CC's helped too. So my lovely husband bought me the Wii I've been wanting for ever! I'm so excited! I am excited to play the fun games (Lego Star Wars, anyone?) but I'm also super jazzed at the prospect of a fitness game. I'm doing research on a few...

  • Wii Fit Plus (of course) - I like the idea of not realizing you are working out and the yoga
  • EA Sports Active - Would a more "grown up" gym experience be a better fit (pardon the pun) for what I'm looking for
  • Biggest Loser - Looked good on Amazon.com, would love to hear Jillian/Bob helping me, liked the idea of Challenges and Daniel and I could use the competition aspect to encourage each other; not so keen on the recipes and "tips", would hate it if I ended up with one of the contestants that I HATED being my "stand-in".

That's it for now. Thanks for listening!
