New Year, Same Problems

Problem 1: Never Enough Time, EVER!!!

Example: We've had all weekend off and haven't really screwed around that much, but our to-do list is still bigger than we want to handle

Problem 2: The "Bulge"

Yes, we did start a weight loss challenge, not that it did us any good. But, the new balance ball we got for Christmas looks fun, so we'll have to give it a try. We also got some clip on walkmans, so maybe we will be exersizing the dog a bit more (she is quite a fat little girl too).

Problem 3: The "New" House

Although our house is less than 5 years old, it seems to have had no shortage of mechanical problems since we moved in. Pre-Christmas (on a night that it got down below 0 degrees) our heater quit heating... Today Steve noticed that the toilet in the second bathroom is leaking (this is the second toilet we will have to take out and repair - not just a new wax seal either, we had to bust out pipes last time... not a pretty job)

But.... on the bright side, we survived another round of Christmas parties without catching anything too bad, we got to visit with a lot of family we don't see often enough, and we got a week in Florida that was cool, but not cold (for a change). We also got enough snow for the dog to learn some new tricks
