Turkey Days

Turkey days are coming and I glad for the break from school. We are lucky and have to go to school the week of Thanksgiving. I only work on Monday since I will be having a student teacher sub on Tuesday. That will be nice. Brian is also going to be off so we will take little monster to school on Tuesday and a have some time to just hang out and be together which we have not done in a long time. My friend and I are planning on doing the Turkey Trot but I got to thinking, why drive to Dallas to run 8 miles when we could do that here in town? So, I am going to talk to her and see what she thinks about that new idea.
Brian and I are going to join a gym. LA Fitness. It is brand new and very nice. They even have free child care there which is a bonus plus an indoor pool. It's out front though where you walk in. I am thinking that is a poor layout idea. Most people don't want to show their "swimming body" to each and every member of the gym. It's their own fault if they look. I am excited though about getting to swim laps. Something I have not done since pregnancy. (Which I truly believe helped me have only 5 1/2 hours of labor from beginning to end!) I hope that my new enthusiasm continues because a couple of days a week I will be heading out at 5 am!! Don't worry, I won't be like the Biggest Loser and post my before and after picture. That can't be good for anyone! :)
