It is almost Christmas time!



I am very excited about the rapidly approaching Christmas vacation! I love Christmas time for many reasons. I love the smell of cinnamon that fills the house and the glistening Christmas tree in the corner. I love how the ornaments twinkle as the lights reflect off of them. I love how the stockings hang just waiting to be filled with candy. I love the red and green that surrounds every aspect of Christmas. And of course, I love the presents under the tree keeping what they contain a secret until Christmas morn. Obviously, Christmas time is my favorite time of year. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!

Put down your remote!



Today's generation spends most of their time in front of the TV watching their favorite TV show. Watching that much TV is not a good thing for anyone. We should all spend more time outside. Outdoors is like a TV show because you never know what you may see. You may see someone come out of their house and trip down the stair. You can always count on getting a good laugh from something outdoors. I enjoy playing with my dogs outside or playing a game with friends outdoors. So, instead of watching TV, go outside and see what your backyard has to offer you!

Thanksgiving is Coming Up!

I am quite excited about Thanksgiving coming up. Not only is it a break from work and school, it is a holiday to spend with family. The best part about Thanksgiving is the traditional feast. However, the traditional Thanksgiving feast is not the healthiest meal in the world. So, instead of having the usual white dinner rolls, why not have the whole grain rolls? Or maybe instead of getting fifths, just stick with seconds. What we eat is our choice. So make a better choice on Thanksgiving and eat healthier and smaller portions. Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!



Run with your dog!



Not many people enjoy running by themselves. What about that furry floor rug you left at home that wags its tail when you walk by? Your dog needs daily exercise just as much as you do. If you run with your dog, you will burn his excess energy off. If you burn his energy off, you will not have a dog bouncing off the walls when you get home. Plus running with your dog gives you a companion to run with. So, on your next run, take your furry friend with you!
