Great ideas everyone, thanks!
I had a stinky 1/2 weekend here

I won't post what I had. Actually, it wasn't too bad, but I drank more pop than I should have. And last night we ate too late...Pizza Hut took an hour and a half to bring us our order (and we were right across the street), and then they screwed it up anyway. So we didn't eat until 9:30pm
I did buy a few more t-shirts (one says "everyone loves a canadian girl"), that are a little sexy (because they are tight)but not slinky. I love them, and can't wait until I lose a little more tummy so I can wear them! Also splurged on a new pair of jeans, that I should be able to get into by the end of my 6 week challenge!
On the way back to town, my friend and I are cooking up some ways to get active this winter. There's not much to do in this town, so we are going to try and start our own "activity group". It started with me mentioning how good a cardio thing doing highland dancing is. Apparently one friend in town knows how. We are going to try and organize a weekly thing, where we spend a few weeks learning how to do various types of fun dances, aerobics, etc. We hope to get a few others from the community involved. Should make the winter pass more quickly.
We are also going to sign up for skating lessons! I can skate, but can't do any moves, etc. I'm not very good. And my friend would like to skate without holding on to the boards. Then we can take our kids public skating every week, and burn some calories that way. We'd have to take a class with our 4 year olds, but that'll be fun too

Also, there are so few kids involved, they were considering closing the rink altogether. So this may help keep it open if we all get involved.
Oy, big weekend. We're going out tonight too, so I'm off to find a babysitter! Wish me luck!
