What A Weekend...

Good Monday Morning:I am feeling better thanks to your helpful words on Friday. I am totally back to basics here and realize I need to set goals for myself and decide what I want to do. One goal is to purchase snow shoes. We have so much winter weather this year I need to take advantage. I'm sure the dogs would love trekking around with me too.

I have finally gotten back to a training routine: 3 body parts each day with 1 - 2 exercises and 3 sets of 15 reps using moderate weight so as not to stress the muscles. We're just reminding the muscles of the training I was doing before. Sat: shoulders, chest, and back; Sun: hamstrings, glutes, quads; haven't trained yet today.

On my husband and I attended 2 Christmas parties. The first was a wedding/Christmas/everything celebration with friends from Milton. My friend Leslie made her famous chicken stacks (the recipe is in the Eat-Clean Diet Cookbook) to keep the meals clean. We also feasted on Heart Smart Lemon Mousse and homemade cornmeal biscotti. With the occassional glass of wine it was a great night.

After feasting at Leslie's we enjoyed some dancing at our friends Richard and Marilyn's annual Christmas party in one of Kleinburg's gorgeous golf courses. It was a late night, but a great way to start gearing up for the holiday season.

On Sunday I woke up bright and early to drive to Belleville for brunch with my daughter, Kelsey-Lynn. I drove back home that afternoon to get ready for the Sarah Brightman concert. She is one of my favorite artists. It was one of my Christmas presents to my husband. The concert was just mind blowing. Her shoes and her clothes are unreal... but her voice completely filled the Air Canada Center. The place went nuts when she sang Phantom. Afterwards, we drove home in a snow storm and have a good foot of snow on the ground this morning!!! Wow. Maybe we will have a white Christmas after all...

I will post some pics of the snow once I load them onto my computer.
