It's so cold and snowy, it really feels like Christmas. I love it. For 6 consecutive California Christmases (say that three times fast), I got into the spirit with music and smells... but it never came close to my ol' Montana Christmas. I guess this isn't the same either, but closer. Something magical about freezing your ass off.
I have no physical activity to report unfortunately. My marathon recovery is slipping into no-excuse-laziness. Today I'm going to bundle up and go for a long walk of at least 45 minutes or an hour, if I can make it that long without freezing solid or falling down repeatedly. I need to do something to balance the cookie and wine intake!
Picture time!

love the tree! so cute. I'm trying to be festive without one this year, and the snow falling definitely helps. As do the cookies & wine. I think I'm going to try to run outside today - maybe.
love the tree!!!
i have yet to do any exercise either... i am enjoying the downtime but also sooo anxious to go for a run :)
So cute! I wish I had the piney smell in my place. I will always regret my missed oppty to buy a 20 ft tree. Ohwell.
So what is under the tree?? Have you a good girl. Merry Christmas and enjoy your recovery. We have a fun year ahead of us :)
I'm hoping to hit the treadmill this afternoon. I'm technically "workin" right now.
I grew up in cali and knew nothing of snow and ice until I spent three years in Boston and the snow does add a little something to the holiday spirit.
It's so interesting how different people grow up. For me, in the 'burbs in Cali, going to the corner Mikey's Xmas Lot was our tradition.
Well, the cat seems impressed. I guess you can keep it. ;-)
As a lifelong LA boy, Christmas to me has always been sunny and relatively warm. It's all I know. Kinda sad.
i'm loving this 'arctic blast 2008' too LOL! 24 hr news coverage--so awesome. your tree is tres cute!
there's a lot of xmas gifts under that tree already! any for me? lol.
I think Michael and I are going to go buy a cactus and have it be our charlie brown xmas tree. that's how we do it in az!

Your tree is so cute! I agree the air needs to be nice and crisp to really have it feel like Christmas. A little snow is also nice.
very cute. we used to get our tree the "old school way" too, when we lived up on the mountain (sigh).
I loved your last entry and your take on the phenomenon known to the rest of the country as winter-funny!
My friend in Oregon knows a runner who has a Christmas tree farm - I wonder if it came from there?
Very nice - your cat certainly likes it!
aw...what a cute tree!!! and cat :) and as much as I hate being cold I would love to actually have a white Christmas one day!!!
Aww, your photo-full posts are AWESOME!!
I confess I haven't been exercising as much either.
Looks like you've had the best time with your buddies!
You make me smile.

Your Xmas tree looks awesome!! And hello, love that you have so many presents under the tree ALREADY! You are so on the ball!! ;-)
I'm very impressed with your Christmas spirit!
CUTE!! Happy Holidays!!
(can you keep the cat out of that tree? Our 2 cats are always trying to tackle out 7-footer...)
Well that looks like fun, and lots of presents waiting too!
That tree is adorable! I also think you should be freezing your ass off during the holiday season. I live in Texas and its 70 degrees outside. I wish it was a little colder...
