Toots and Sally Ride Again

Ok…so it’s been exactly 3 weeks since the marathon…it seems like an eternity ago.  I haven’t run a single time since the marathon but  I think my “recovery” period is officially over…the legs are finally getting antsy.  I have been going to the gym trying to maintain my cardio level by working on the cycling & elliptical machines.  I have also been trying to work on the abs but that’s not going too well - though I must admit it is mainly due to laziness on my part.

The running “break” came at a good time - the holidays.  We’ve had family visiting, friends visiting, holiday parties to attend, shopping, shopping, and more shopping, Punxsk8erdude’s birthday, and my birthday of course which seems to be ongoing - no, I’m not complaining.  I love this time of year!  As a matter of fact, we’re getting the house ready for the New Year’s Fete (my personal favorite)…and yes, that means more family & friends.  We’ll be celebrating the usual way…we don’t keep up with all the traditions but we still do incorporate a few…my personal favorite is the grape thing…oh yeah, and don’t forget your red underwear! 

Sally & Lumpy, you’ll just have to come down one of these New Years….

HAPPY NEW YEAR’S!!!  May it be absolutely fantabulous!
