Went back to work on Tuesday, January 11. The X mas vacation and holidays sure were nice. Those mid-day naps with Karla were great. Now back to our daily routines.

Karla's sitter is back. She is fantastic. We all love her, and she really loves Karla. I know our sitter missed Karla during vacation time.

I've got a new boss, actually several new boses. I work at a state government agency. We've got a new state governor and a new agency director, with a lot of potential. Let us hope for the best. (Can't trust politicians)

Now I'll be able to get to the gym straight from work. During the holidays I had to get a sitter (dh or a grandma) to care for Karla while I went. Of course I didn't go as often as I wanted, but I lost 4 lbs and 1.20 in during the Christmas season. Yay!!!

My treadmill is d-e-a-d :( It was a hand me down from my parents and it's only 12 years old. LOL

DH will get me a new treadmill for Valentine's day (or before). I will contribute some of my Xmas gift money so we can get a nicer one. This will be a gift of love and health. Can't wait to get out of my chunky self and into my thin self.

Meanwhile, I'm decluttering the house. Gotta get rid of the old stuff to fit in the new the treadmill. Can't wait to fling my fat clothes. My skinny clothes are packed as I refuse to throw them out. :)

I've also got to finish putting away all the Christmas decorations. I realized this morning we still have decorations on our garage and front door. Time to take them down. The goal is to put all the Christmas stuff away by January 17.
