Happy New Year! (On the road again!)

After a super-fun visit all the way around the state of Iowa, we are about to jump back into Otis the van and head for home. I am feeling very sad right now. It is a strange combination of wanting to be home and not wanting to leave Iowa. It always takes a few days for me to bounce back from this feeling. I always take a million pictures so it will be fun to sort through them. They help.

I am excited to start my New Year's resolutions. Instead of the old generic "I am going to lose weight" which never seems to work for me, I have a new goal. I am going to run a 5K this year. I will do some research and figure out what I have to do to sign up for one. I am sure I am almost back to square one after not really paying attention to diet and exercise for 10+ days. I had fun though! Still, I lost 6 pounds between Thanksgiving and Christmas. So, I can do it.

I will post some pictures of the trip and the fun we had in the snow later this week.

Will you be doing the couch-to-5k program? I've done it twice (every time after the birth of my children) and it is SO easy. I have actually done a 10 km and then hurt my back badly so I can't run anymore. I miss it A LOT. Good luck!
