Shake It Off

The good news is that the snow quit sometime in the middle of the night so the plows actually had time to go through our neighborhood before we got up.

The bad news is that when hubby went to snowblow the newest layer since last night, the snowblower died. As in a cable broke and we will have to pray for no more snow for a few days at least. Not the time to say "Just shake it off," so I bit my tongue and meekly asked for a ride to work.

Roads were not great. Did OK in the CRV but my little hybrid would have been all over the place, so it was nice to have an escort right to the door at work!

Work got a little crazy. I can't just shake it off sometimes. So I indulge in chocolate and feel worse before I feel better.

Did reward myself with non-food tonight by going to the Assumption girls basketball game with Jim. Thought it was going to be a close game since Abbotsford has a similar record. Not sure who they've been playing, but our lady Royals beat them something like 70-22. Crazy. A quick game, though, so that means I'll get to bed at a decent time tonight.

On the way home, Jim swung through the McDonald's drive-thru and an Eggnog Shake fell right into my lap. Not sure how that happened. I had to drink it, of course, since it was – for the record – my first McD's Eggnog Shake of the season! I swear.

Probably should swear it was my last, too, since I will not be able to shake it off my hips anytime soon. I will have to dig into my memory bank of Zumba moves to at least give it a try.

Now if I could only shake off the memories of how good it tasted. M-m-m-m...
