HOLIDAY FOOD & SADDLE BAGS = LOVE


Last night I must have laid there waiting for the generic sleep aid med to kick in, I must’ve laid there for an hour waiting for the drowsy effect  to wear in, you know the droopy –heavy-eyelids, nope, there was no drooping of eyelids, yet of course there was a noticing of extra droopage in the hips- MAN – I was so proud when I could fit my flat butt into  all my KEWL HIP pants and put my stretchy pants away – NOPE – the added bonus and extra hugs during the holiday partying and eating is HUGS the 24/7 kind  aren’t from relatives it’s from all the food we’ve ingested. The cheese cake, the chocolates, the candycanes, the cookies, the dark meat from turkey, honey glazed ham, roast beef, mashed potatoes, homemade rolls  smothered with honey and butter– HAVE PLANTED AND CLAIMED A SPOT ON MY HIPS now I’m back into my stretchy pants..eerrmmmpph –yeah, that’s me trying to put on some work pants for my substitute  teaching gig.  Well, get back to the generic sleep aid, I noticed 45 minutes have past, after the initial hour- so 1hour and 45 minutes thinking about my saggy baggy flabby hips and my flat butt. DANG, now, I’m not tired. So, I decide to go and do a few kicks on the kickboxing bag, time is now 2:30 a.m.  I lasted for 30 minutes  doing some good Billy Blanks TAEBO  high kicks, then of course, my darn ankle buckles AGAIN – AGAIN – AGAIN.. This time I refuse to just lay here and use my disability as an excuse, I wrapped it and went speed walking 5 miles this evening.  WHEW, I’m tired and I’m in pain. The ice pack is on my crazy ankle.  I sit here thinking stupid GENERIC SLEEP AID,  for making me notice my flabby, saggy saddle bags, but I must admit that second slice of cheesecake at the third holiday dinner was well worth it.
