The Grinch


I have been possessed by the Grinch. My heart is now 2 sizes to small. I just feel crabby and grumpy, and really lacking in the loving, giving, sharing holiday spirit.
My house is decorated, with a beautiful tree, lights, and garland above the fireplace. The weather has turned cold outside, so we have been having warm fires and candle light. But, I'm just blah!
It's probably a lack of good sleep, less than the desired amount of exercise, and a diet of carbs and sugar.
Since it had gotten cold, it's hard to take a morning walk. I know I can bundle the kids up, but it takes so much effort. I just find myself pouring another cup of coffee and eating.
I haven't taken the kids to the gym childcare in almost a year. The last several times we went, I didn't get to exercise because they both screamed and screamed. It is probably time for me to take them again, so I can get in some winter exercise and shake this foul mood.
And, if I exercise, I can eat all the cakes and cookies of the season with less guilt.
