Tired of noise

Have I mentioned that I am an introvert? Well, I am. I get my energy from having some good quality alone time. I love hanging out with friends, and doing stuff with my family...but when I feel depleted I just want to crawl in the closet until I feel better.

Today is one of those days. I am exhausted from Christmas. I am fighting a cold (I think). And I really want Nate to go back to school. Then, of course, I feel guilty for thinking that but it's been 10 days of being home and I am in serious need of a mom break.

Enough of that negativity....

Eating has been good. We had a lovely dinner on Christmas Eve of prime rib with baked potatoes and asparagus. Then...red cake for dessert! Yum! I enjoyed a piece of cake three days in a row...but then I went right back to eating the way that I have been for the last three months. It will be interesting to see how the scale reacts this week. I did a lot of good, hard exercise to counteract the cake, but you never know how all that sugar and fat are going to react within your body. I will keep you posted :)

My workouts have been awesome! I burned 4200 calories last week just in exercise!!! That kicks some serious butt! There is a huge cold weather system getting ready to hit here though...so the workouts will be indoors for the next 5 days or so. I will have to work harder and getting a good calorie burn, but I have a confidence in myself that I will get it done!

Okay...off to have a few minutes to myself before Nate realizes that I am not around and wants some attention :)
