Aprons

Life just gets so busy! Well also I have a really old and slow computer. We are buying a new one with our tax return. I'm so excited! I have been collecting recipes lately. My sister gave me three cookbooks to add to my growing collection of things to make. And now my mother-in-law just gave me a recipe book and some recipes. I am not much of a cook... but I am learning and loving it. I need an apron! I have found some online I like but I think I have found the cutest one ever. http://www.flirtyaprons.com/ has other really cute ones too.
This apron is perfect! I think a kitchen would look nice in these colors too. :) I found another site that has the cutest aprons. They have matching bags and pot holders too.

The New Plan

"Your too young to be having back problems." The doctor told me yesterday. I have thrown my lower back out 5 times and I'm only 26. Monday I was playing with the kids on the floor and dancing. Then all of sudden I had pain shooting through my neck and shoulders. I finished the rest of the day at work but it was hard. When it was so bad the I couldn't sit up without screaming and crying I decided to go to the doctor. She told me I'm having a muscle spasm. Apparently poor posture is just one of the reasons for my weak back. The doctor recommended Physical Therapy and Yoga. I also bought a special pillow. I can't remember the last time anything was this painful. You don't even realize how everything affects your neck and shoulders. This was a reality check for me. I need to take better care of myself. I have been eating health and exercising when I can. It's not enough.

So I'm starting a new plan. I'm going to try to release my stress and practice Yoga. I never did yoga because I thought I wasn't flexible enough. That's not what yoga is about. It's about strengthening your core and will hopefully help me deal better with stress. I found this place online that I cant wait to go to. http://www.blissflowyoga.com/ As soon as my back is better I'm going to try it out. They also have a class called Yoga and Wine. I want to do that as well. Also one of the Yoga Instructors has a blog that is great as well. http://www.liquidblissblog.com/ I haven't figured out how to follow her blog since its not through blogger but I have it under favorites. Check it out, it's great!

What a busy busy holiday. I have not had any time to write. Ah to be back at it again. So tonight I made Weight Watchers Tater Tot Casserole. My first real meal for my husband. I am not much of a cook but I'm trying. It actually turned out really good. I think there is hope for me yet!

December Photo Challenge

What amazing and fun photos I have seen from everyone doing the December Photo Challenge. To see other photos or to join in, The December Photo Challenge go to ThoughtsNStuff.

I just had to start doing it too!

This is a tree outside my work. When I got out of work last night I started my car and went to clean it off. As I was doing that I saw this tree, a tree I drive by everyday. It looked so beautiful. I took lots of pictures that were ok and pretty but I wasn't as satisfied as I would have hoped. So I got in my car a began to leave. As I was driving right next to it it just looked perfect so I stopped my car in the middle of the road (good thing I was the only one there) and took this pic as well as a few others. I think this is definitely my favorite picture I've taken this winter, maybe ever.

I'm so glad to have snow! It makes it feel more like Christmas. Brrr it's cold and it's not fun to drive in but it's so beautiful! Today is a perfect day... a snow day! :)

Last night I basically wondered around taking pictures till I couldn't feel my hands. It was great! I must be crazy. If you would have heard me last year I was asking myself why I lived in Wisconsin. I love warm weather and summer time best but there is something about the snow that is amazing!

I plan to bundle up, play in the snow till i'm freezing, then come inside, drink hot cocoa and read harry Potter. That's my perfect snow day!

Here are some of my pictures from last night.

This just reminded me so much of a Transformer. Hehe! :)
