Weekly Downsizing Me Check In - 12/14/2016


Date - 12/14/2016

Week Start Weight - 243

So I will be taking a break until the new year. With holidays it is hard. I will try my damnedest (is that even a word) to eat right and get some movement during the day. But it is too hard to keep track right now. See you in the new year with a new format and some new content (Planner Obsession!!)

December Blog Challenge - My Favorite Christmas Carols


I missed a few days, it has been busy and time has flown, plus I have a new OBSESSION that has taken me away from the blog...

As I mentioned in my 100 Things I Love post, I love Christmas Music. I could listen to it all year long. I don't, but I could!! While I love all Christmas Music, I do have my favorites. This is the list of those favorites. I have included links to some YouTube videos of the songs sung by some of my favorite artists... (you will also learn that I am SLIGHTLY fixated on Pentatonix)

*****************

What Child Is This



Silent Night



 Mary, Did You Know?



The Little Drummer Boy


Do You Hear What I Hear?



Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas


O Holy Night


Carol Of The Bells


My Favorite Things


God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman


I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas


That's Christmas To Me


Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy (this has no words, yet Pentatonix does a video, go figure!!!)



What are some of your favorite Christmas/Holiday Songs?

December Blog Challenges - SNOW!!! Yes or No!!!


SNOW... Yes or No


Anybody who knows me knows that I currently live in Las Vegas because I lived in Northern Nevada for 8 years and had enough of the snow. I couldn't stand living in it anymore. Even now, when I think about moving back there, my knuckles turn white and a family of butterflies invade my tummy. But, if I don't have to live in it... I love it...

What do I mean by that. If I don't have to actually function (go to work, drive, etc). It is amazing. I love to snuggle on the couch in the middle of a snow storm with the fireplace burning and a cup of coffee and just watch the snow. It gets so quiet and peaceful.

However, driving or having to function, nope, no way...

Maybe later, when I don't actually have to leave my house 😉

Do you enjoy the snow?
