And of course, with watching Christmas movies. One of my favorite Christmas movies is A Christmas Carol so I have several adaptations of that. Christmas also isn’t quite complete without at least one viewing of the Nutcracker ballet. Maybe one year, Squeaker and I can attend in person. I also look forward to seeing what Disney will decide…

Ever since my third child was born, I’ve had an on and off struggle with my weight. I say on and off because I’ve finally reached a point in my life where I’m comfortable with my body image.

Once I got comfortable with that though, it was easier for me to accept that I had gained weight. For one, I was finally in my optimal weight area. But then I started to gain more weight. And, according to the BMI chart at the doctor’s office, I was borderline overweight….
