Yep! Everywhere I turn there are Christmas trees, lights, nutcrackers and ornaments. Um, Halloween is in seven days and the candy is already in the "marked-down" bins. Really?! Once upon a time, you'd start seeing Christmas items and commercials the day after Thanksgiving. Then, a few years ago, it was backed up to November 1st. This year, I started seeing the goods the second week of October. Gracious! What is happening? The economy is in the toilet, but everyone still wants you to spend, spend, spend. It's ridiculous.
Don't get me wrong, I love Christmas; however, can we enjoy the current holiday before we move onto the next? I haven't even seen the cute Turkey decorations I normally see. It's like they decided Thanksgiving just wasn't worth it this year. How sad.
I had the Cherry Cordial flavored
I had intended to post my "eats" yesterday, but was so tired that I
didn't do any typing before bed. I'll note that I did make an effort to
get up and do some cardio this morning. Will see how motivated I am to
do it tomorrow. It's worth mentioning that I had no sugar added ice
cream with sugar-free chocolate syrup for dessert. Hubby then gave me
one of his sugar free chocolates from his box. Wow! All this after the salt-laden, Parmesan wings I'm becoming famous for. I had a slight gain
(.4lbs putting me at 175.2 before the workout/175 afterwards) from that little splurge. The chocolates are okay, but the ice
cream needs to be a once per week treat, I think.
