Still here....

Is there an award for the Worst Blogger Ever? Because I think I might qualify. Last time I posted, we just found out we got the Maui timeshare. Now, we're actually getting ready to go! I'm busy printing out my notebook with important things like directions from the airport to the resort, and from the resort to important stops like Costco and Round Table Pizza. Most importantly, I bought a new swimsuit for the first time in years. Which is hard to do in November. But I found a great store online called Sahalie and they had some good swimsuits still in stock. This is the first time I've branched out and got a swimsuit that is not black, navy blue or brown. Yay me. Here it is:

I also got the little skirt that goes with it, which I thought was way cute. Hopefully everything fits!

Other items of note:
  • I'm loving Glee! If you, like me, love Glee, go to Pandora and create a station based on the Glee cast.
  • John bought us the Wii Active and we've been doing their 30 day challenge. I'm down about 8 lbs in three weeks and am feeling a little better about being in a swim suit. Now if I just had a tan.
  • I am officially a reformed night owl, and am now in bed by 10:30 (except for very unusual circumstances) and up by 6:00. This morning I was up by 5:00, just because I couldn't sleep and my body wanted to get going. I really think it's because I actually get a 4-5 hour block before Addie wakes up and I've found that I really need to take advantage of that time.
  • I'm overwhelmed by the idea of Christmas shopping. Amazon, with Amazon Prime Free Two Day Shipping will be my best friend this year, I think.
  • I taught a class last week on holiday hors d'oeuvres and it really got me in a holiday baking mood. Good thing Thanksgiving is around the corner and I will have lots of excuses to bake!
Feels good to blog. I'll try and be better.

Yay, you're FINALLY back!

If you find a good place to tan let us know; we go to Roatan at the end of January. Nothing is worse that getting scorched on the first day.

I'm so excited for your Hawaii trip!! But, you baking....that sounds even better. :) And don't worry about a tan; white is the new tan (at least I'm telling myself that!)
