This is not fair.....


So, here in Washington, we have cold temps, but bright sunny days leading up to and including Christmas Day. A little snow experienced while driving the pass crossing the mountains. Yet in Texas, where we were just a week ago, it snows for Christmas! It was in the 70's there on Christmas eve. I just don't think that's fair. :) 2/3 of the lower 48 had a white Christmas. Hopefully we'll get some snowy weather 1st quarter of the new year. Fingers crossed.

FLP 2.0 ~ Day 27


Went to see Avatar today w/ one of my sons & hubby, along with the rest of the Puget Sound, packed theater. Yes, it was entertaining, but was it as amazing as Titanic? Story line left more questions than it answered. Some characters needed more development. I suspect a feature-laden DVD release. Will most likely see again @ IMAX to compare if image quality = entertainment. Have you seen it? Your thoughts?

FLP 2.0 ~ Day 21

Went today to get a pass to the local LA Fitness (Arlington North) so that I can keep up the work out. I have my bands with me, but concerned about getting the cardio & getting ready for those darn chin downs. So I thought a mulitple day pass would work & my sister-in-law is a member.

Well not every thing goes as planned. They will only issue a 24 hr pass. I offered to buy multiple day passes, but they said 'no'. I don't understand business that turns down a customer, so if anybody understands this kind of corporate policy, please explain it to me.

So we decide to do a light workout today, I get my hour of 'fun' cardio in and familarize myself with the gym. We will be back before the 24 hours runs out on Monday to get in another workout.

Plus a trip to Central Market!

FLP 2.0 ~ Day 14

Fun Cardio
Walked dogs for 1 hour +.
My family was elsewhere this afternoon - so I just spent the time enjoying the VERY brisk, sunny December day with Duncan & Dakota. It did snow this am - probably freaked a few Western Washington folks out. Oh, how they don't like snow here (or rain, or if it is too hot, etc.) I say bring it on (the snow)! No pictures - hands full. Will try and get photos next time.

Dogs won! Pictures difficult to take when wrangling two 70 - 100lb very-happy-to-be-outside dogs. To see what they look like check here: http://tinyurl.com/ydqan8b

We walked the neighborhood, then off to the local elementary school playground for some Frisbee throwing. We then walked back home - the neighborhood is all hills, so it was uphill back home. I have 2 crashed dogs @ my feet now :) - a good day for everybody.
