106 days until spring

+ not that i'm counting. 

+ changes in plans have been made! this weekend we're going to go cross country skiing instead of bentleyville and moving bentleyville to december 27th (the last night it's open PLUS fireworks!). cities friends are coming up for both. 

it's very nice to have these people in our lives.

+ today i sucked it up and went outside to do some chores. blankets have been fitted to the ponies (with our old girl in hers now), chickens have been loved on and their coop/prison yard have been tossed, and i dragged kid around on the sled for awhile. 

i did fine, for the most part. except i OVERDRESSED on torso, dressed correctly on hands, and UNDERdressed on feet. =\ friend T is bringing a pair of wool socks for me to use for skiing this weekend and if they work, maybe that's the answer? know what's NOT the answer: a second pair of socks. 

seriously, two pair of socks make my toes feel claustrophobic. it's the weirdest feeling! 

+ doing the outsides was really good for me, and i KNOW i need to keep it up. nothing combats the winter blues like fresh air and sunshine. :) not that sunshine is in great supply right now, but that's ok. 

i've been slacking on tracking food and drinking my water, so those two things are on the MUST DO each day. it's so easy to slip back into bad habits and i could feel it happening, so gotta put a stop to that nonsense.
