Woke up to 171.0

Ready for a challenge? How about back to 171 by Tuesday...

Christmas Eve Day

Wednesday, December 24th 2008

Woke up to lots of snow falling... it was beautiful. Still holding just around my first intermediate goal of 172. Didn't make it to the gym because I spent too much time in the car getting Skyler's friend. Sky passed the driving test.
It's Christmas EVe night and we aren't at Patsy and Dad's. That's a little sad. But we will have a quieter Christmas.
