another day in the books

Oh Mondays, how I love thee!  Happily went to the office today and then things started getting away from me.  A few hours in, I stopped everything & started to prioritize.  Thankfully that approach allowed me to get about 75% of my to-do list accomplished - which is a good day for me & great way to start the week!

The big turkey dinner is quickly approaching & I have been assigned veggies.  I was thinking of green bean casserole - but that is so easy!  Tonight I have to start searching for the perfect side dish to go with all the turkey, ham, home-made kielbasa (thanks to my brother!), stuffing, sweet potatoes... I think there are going to be about 14 adults & 5 kids at my brother-in-laws.  Any ideas?  Should be an entertaining afternoon since it involves family & wine :)

I think the idea to scour the cookbooks is because I have things that need to be completed before Friday!  Procrastination is my middle name!  My brother & my nieces are in town until Friday and I have until Thursday to finish up making their Christmas present, so they can take it home & I can save a little money on shipping.  I know I will be able to get it done, but why should I rush - can't I wait until the last minute?  Seems like more fun to me!

Week 3 of training started this evening too.  It was a another short but tough workout.  3 - five minute higher heart rate sections with shorter recovery periods in between.  I felt much more comfortable with this workout as compared to Saturday's.  Although I imagine if there had been one more 5 minute set in there, I would have crawled out of the gym tonight!

Time to go catch some of the Caps game.  Hope you all are having a great Monday too!
