Speaking of winter and being cold, Paco has been enjoying the warmth of our fireplace and my lap:
The picture of contentment!

You can see in the picture above that I'm knitting, but just barely - the base of my right thumb is still really sore, which is a little frustrating. I have lots of lovely yarn just waiting to be knitted, but it hurts to do so. This is going on two weeks now - come ON, thumb - heal already!!!

Our youngest upgraded to an iPhone this week, and used it as we left the store to take a picture of what I've been enjoying doing quite a bit lately...namely, driving my MINI:
In case you're wondering, I usually do have a huge smile on my face every time I'm driving it!
********************
I've taken down our Christmas decorations, put the house back in order, and have even stopped trying to keep up with everyone's eating habits - funny how I tend to fall back into that when the holidays roll around. At least I realize that it's only for a couple of weeks, at most, and I do regain my sanity about food fairly quickly, so there's progress in that sense. I'll be back on Monday with my plans for 2015 - have a great weekend!
That kind of weather makes me want to stay inside for sure - I hope the forecast is wrong for the 11 miler this weekend! Our winter has thus far been cold and dry. Decent for running, but I'm really starting to miss snow!
ReplyDeleteMiss SNOW?? Have you forgotten the winter that was the Polar Vortex?? LOL - I get what you mean...snow is just expected, and when it doesn't happen, it's odd.
DeleteSorry for the cold, wet weather - hopefully it will get better soon.! Hey - a friend of mind is moving to your town - I hope to meet you when I visit them!
ReplyDeletePaco looks amazingly comfortable!
It would be great to meet up with you - definitely let me know when you come for a visit! :)
DeleteWell, we can always hope that the changeable Texas weather WILL change tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteLove that smile you've got in your new Mini!
I drove it today in the rain and got to experience the intuitive windshield washers - they come on when they sense rain! Very cool - this car is so much fun!
DeleteOh My Gosh! That is freaky! In the best possible way!
DeleteHey--just checked your weather--only 15% chance of rain at 8am!!
Ooh, now I want a mini too!!!
ReplyDeleteSorry about the sucky weather, but if it puts you in an introspective sort of mood, that's perfect for figuring out goals and plans and stuff.
Can't wait to hear what's on tap for 2015!
Oh man, that weather stinks! Why, why, why does it have to do that on your running days?!!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year - can't wait to hear what you're cooking for for 2015!
Aww Paco..."I hear camera; I thought I say do not disturb when I cozy like dis? I lift my ear a smidge, but dat is IT! I not posing!"
ReplyDeleteOoo I'll bet you DO smile driving that car! So happy for you.

Awwww look at Paco, so cute.
ReplyDeleteToo bad the run didn't happen, as I promised you I did go out for a run on the first day of a new year. But it had frozen overnight and I had to be careful that I wouldn't slip but in the end it went fine.
I know what you mean smiling when you drive your car. I enjoy my car still so much, it's a pleasure driving it.
Look forward to your plans for this year.
Haha - I don't blame you for that big smile when driving your cool car!!
ReplyDeleteyou and yer mini are like ME AND MY FIAT.
