Valentine's Day

Finally a drop- 122.6! Yay, mentally I like that much better. Back in the range. It weirdly HELPS me to eat right when I am at my ideal weight. My brain is odd, for sure.

Shoveling this morning.. Had to dig out our trash cans and recycling before the truck came. The snowfall is unlike any I've experienced the last couple years. Thank goodness the snow was light and fluffy so it's not the worst to deal with.



I knew when I woke up in the snow had obscured my view out my bedroom window that it was a serious one!!

Ah, well. Maybe no dog walk today... If even 10% of people haven't shoveled, it would make the walk AWFUL. I don't really feel like bundling up in full hiking gear to prevent the snow from going down my boots! But we'll see.. I'm a softy and if he starts begging for a walk, I may give in :)

So the agenda this Valentine's Day? Well, Chris is taking full advantage of this new snowfall and going snowboarding with some buddies. The best Valentine's Day gift I could give him was to encourage him to go! I also got him an old High Peaks book and his favorite chocolate turtle from the local chocolatier.

He got me these:


There are 12 truffles (4 flavors)... So I will limit myself today to trying each flavor once and then putting it away (I eat dark chocolate almost every day anyway, so as long as I can maintain my portion size, I'll be alright.)

But my big present? If the weather holds up, we're going up to Lake Placid tomorrow and going to visit wolves at an animal sanctuary AND a horse drawn sleigh ride!! /squeal/

But first, today- eating well, working out, getting some dissertation stuff done!

Love and Light <3
