I had a really long day at school and didn’t get home until 6:15pm!  That is late for me!  I was happy that I got a great morning workout in this morning. I did weights and then went to 45 minutes of spinning class.  It was a much needed workout after tons of baking and drinking wine all weekend!   I have another big workout planned for morning, unless we get a snow delay…..cross your fingers for me!

So when I finally got home, I threw together a great meal for both of us!  After we ate, we worked on Christmas cards, baked bread for neighbors and friends and watched Step Brothers – for the first time.  It was funny, but I was not really in the mood.  I would have much rather watched Miracle on 34th St. or Elf.  Oh well!
