Thursday, Dec 22^nd – G and I went for a morning walk in my parent’s neighbor, but I forgot my watch. We did bring our phones and were planning on taking a picture of a local Frank Lloyd Wright house, but there were people walking in the house. Oh well. Maybe another time.

Friday, Dec 23^rd – Morning walking with my Mom. We did 2.01 miles in 4hr 28min! Opps! I guess I forgot to stop my watch when we got home.

Saturday, Dec 24^th – Just a quick morning walk since we had a lot of stuff to do to get ready for the annual Christmas Eve party! 1.54miles in 32.10.

Sunday, Dec 25^th – Merry Christmas!!

Monday, Dec 26^th – 5K to walking off all the tasty food we ate the past 2 days. I made pierogies (tutorial coming soon) and apricot foldover cookies (Apricot is my favorite name for the next kitty!) and my dad made his annual homemade pork sausage. He makes a green chile and habanero version. It goes fast, so G was stalking the kitchen to make sure he got some this year!

Apricot foldovers in progress. The dough is a butter, eggs, flour, and a water.

Sprinkled with cinnamon sugar.

So tasty!

Tuesday, Dec 27^th – 2.07 mile walk with Mom in the morning.

Wednesday, Dec 28^th – Short walk with Mom in the morning before heading to the airport. I had a great time visiting my parents and hometown!

I did get a cold before we heading to my parents house for Christmas. Lots of congestion and lots of Kleenex used. Running has been hard because I still have lingering congestion.
