What Am I Doing Up?

It's only 6 a.m. I've been up for awhile now. I'm just not the slightest bit tired. In fact, I want to empty the dishwasher and do the other dishes, but I don't want to wake up my husband. So here I am on the interwebz.

So I'm thinking I need to get myself back on track these days. I've let it get way out of hand. Apparently my "Sweatin' to the Oldies 5" has shipped, so that's good. Also, I played boxing on the Wii last night (I won!), and it was very tiring, so it must burn a fair bit of calories, I'd think. Especially because I get so competitive. Although if I were my husband, I don't think I'd play with me anymore. I did a slow-mo victory lap around the living room when I won. Obnoxious or what? I won at tennis, too.  :p

So back to the getting on track thing. I'm torn. On one hand, I really need to, and that would be the sensible thing to do. On the other hand, I have cookies. Date cookies. From Grandma. I love Grandma's date cookies. I have lots of chocolate and stuff, too. And I still have leftovers. Writing about this is making me hungry. No, no, I really need to get back on track. Cookies or no cookies.

Speaking of Grandma-related things, everyone was on fairly good behaviour while we were in the Pass, so that was nice. Grandma was a bit cranky, but she's having issues--medical issues--and if I were having those sorts of issues, I'd be cranky, too. We didn't know what to get her for Christmas at first, but then we went to the Walmart in Pincher Creek to check out the Boxing Week specials (which sucked), and got her a heating pad. It was my husband's idea because she was complaining about having to get up to refill her hot water bottle a few times a night. The heating pad was a big hit, although she still insists on having a hot water bottle, too. But she doesn't have to refill it as often this way. She's afraid of leaving the heating pad plugged in, even though it has an auto shutoff. But she won't even leave her microwave plugged in, so...that's to be expected, I guess.

My mom got me a blow dryer with a diffuser, which I asked for (no more limp hair! Yay!), and a box with a bunch of Nivea goodies in it. My brother got me a thing that's like a cross between binoculars and a telescope. I don't know what it's called. Looks neat, though. I'm excited about all of it. :o)

I need fun Wii game recommendations. I think I want a Wii Fit, but I don't think we can afford it right now. What's cool and unusual in the world of Wii these days?

Okay, I'm cold, so I'm going back to bed now.
