The End is Nigh

It's the last month of the year. December. The holiday season is in full swing. Birthdays are quickly approaching, my husband's, my mother's, my father's, and my own. The tree is up. The lights are hung. The presents are wrapped. And the records are on. It's an old holiday tradition for me to get out my old vinyl records and listen to traditional Christmas music. Bing, Nat King Cole, Dean Martin, Ella Fitzgerald, all the old greats. Nothing beats listening to those old records. My only complaint is having to change them over constantly, :) .
1. Weight loss.   Well we had a little derailment on this train this past month. We were invited to Tunica with my grandparents and some other family. If you aren't familiar with it, Tunica is a casino town and there is literally nothing else to eat but buffets and vending machines, unless you want to drive 15 minutes for one of 2 fast food joints, and an everflowing fountain of FREE soda. Dear god, the copious amounts of free soda! This morning when I weighed I was  142.4. Wow 2 whole pounds. It's amazing how easy it is to screw up over just one weekend.
2. 50 Books in a year.I read and reviewed 4 books in the past month. Which brings my total to 49! 1 book left. Mwahaha!
3. Photography. One Christmas session. This wonderful couple with two dogs. On a slightly related front. I'm scaling my photography availability back to part time. I accepted a part time position with a vet's office in the town over. Last week was my first week. It's different but it's a regular paycheck.
Nothing else new to report....
Unless you're interested in how my holiday shopping is going, in which case I have to get my grandfather's, my great-aunt and her family, a little something for my bff and something for the work holiday gift exchange. Then I am done!
