Christmas Day is here

Inside a Bellingham Christmas bus

Yesterday I walked in the dark before sunrise to catch the bus to my favorite coffee shop and then to the Y for a truncated workout. I was able to get out and about and all my steps before returning back home. It was mostly sunny and not raining, for a change.

We had so much rain in the past week that several rivers flooded and caused my favorite bus route to have to take a detour, making it about ten minutes late. It wasn't all that difficult to wait in the dark, since I was dressed for the weather. As you can see in the picture, hardly anyone rode the bus yesterday. And today there aren't any buses to ride: the bus drivers have the day off.

I was pleased that on the way home yesterday, I accidentally caught this bus, one decorated for the holidays. Only one or two are decked out like this, so it was a real treat for me to enjoy. And not fattening!

After the holidays are over, I'll be returning to my regularly scheduled diet, but for now I'm allowing myself to eat whatever I want. It amazes me how quickly my clothes begin to tell me what I already know, but in just a couple of weeks? Wish the pounds would come OFF as quickly as they go on.

In any event, I truly hope that you will have a happy, safe, and delightful holiday! I will be enjoying it, in fact I already am!
