Ushering 2010

Brian and I got a Nintendo Wii for Christmas from his parents. One of the smarter moves I have made in life was convincing Brian that we should purchase a Wii Fit in lieu of Christmas presents for one another. I have been diligent in Wii Fitting daily, much to the pleasure of my Mii's trainer. I actually can exercise for an extended period of time without becoming bored. Hopefully this will stick in the upcoming year. The only unfortunate part is that I am weighed daily.

New Years is rolling in uneventfully in suburban Jackson. Luckily I was able to secure a bag of blackeyed peas for the new year. I'm 99% positive that Mississippi is the only state in the US in which blackeyed peas are flying off the shelves. I am excited to start this tradition and plan to carry it on the rest of my life. Blackeyed peas bring good luck in the upcoming year--and luck is something you can never have enough of.
