Made it Through NaBloPoMo!

Woo hoo! I made it through the challenge of posting every day in November. Sure... a few of them were just a quick picture update, but I still made the effort to update daily. Anyway, it was a good introduction to blogging and to get into posting regularly. It'll be interesting to see how often I choose to post now that the challenge is over.

There isn't much to report lately. I got back to the gym after a Thanksgiving hiatus. It's really hard to get motivated after a break with lots of yummy food. I did an ab class last night and am feeling it today. I've been watching Psych and avoiding going back to the gym. I'll go today... in a little while ;)

I still haven't put up Christmas decor inside (other than my new wreath on the front door) and we're still not sure when we'll get our tree. All I know is that it better be soon :D Don't worry, there is still lots of Christmas cheer in the Sloan household. I think it's safe to say that Mike is already sick of Christmas music.

And because squirrels are pretty much the cutest things ever, I will leave you with a picture I took yesterday. I finally caught the little furry bugger in the act... and it's so cute!

A Series of Events

1. I noticed a hole in the pumpkin the other day and today I realized it was getting larger...


2. I happened to be cleaning the windows when I saw some movement by the pumpkins. I grabbed my phone to take a picture just in the nick of time...



3. It turns out that the little flash happens to be a not so little squirrel...

4. That's right, little buddy, your cover is blown...

Tomorrow is trash day and I had planned to toss the pumpkins, but I didn't have the heart to go through with it after seeing this. Who am I to take away Thanksgiving dinner from a family of squirrels? Between the pumpkins and the peanuts I've been feeding them, they will definitely be prepared for Winter!
