Finally!!!

I started out this morning thinking I would create a blog just for my upcoming Burpee challenge.....but as the day went on....and on....and on.....and here I am after 10pm still working on this darn thing, I realized that I having many other happenings in my life that I might want to blog about....whether it be about my run a km/day for a year challenge or when I get on a roll every now and then of posting photos of food that I eat or new recipes that I try.
I know I post often on Facebook, but I tend to delete many posts on a regular basis to clean up my wall. Every so often I find myself deleting something by accident.

Today I cooked Turkey dinner for some of the family. Only 5 of the kids were here.....and that was ok. Both Grandkids were here and that's always an extra special treat. This was an early Christmas dinner for Alyssa since she is leaving in a week for Italy to join another ship and will be gone until next May. It was interesting to hear a couple comments from them wondering if this was their actual Christmas dinner. (They never know when we might spring news on them that we will be away).No surprises this time, as much as I would love to go away somewhere hot for Christmas.....we will be here!
