Daily Food Diary – Day 348 of 365

by annemariedemyen, posted in 2025, Health and Fitness

Today is Day 348 of my Daily Food Diary! 💥

Today there are seventeen days until 2026 and ten days until Christmas. 

I am infinitely grateful that we offered our newlyweds, Genie & Alec, the opportunity to host Christmas this year.  And moreso that they accepted the offer with the full support of Alec’s mother Denise.

That being said, it is ten days until Christmas and in two days I am booked for surgery…

And son Dan and family are coming on the 21st..

I am not ready.  Not by a long shot.

But my win for the day yesterday was Christmas baking with granddaughter Prim!

We had a good time, filled a few baking containers and our bonus win was having Grandpa (Dan) making an awesome supper of Shepherd’s Pie.

My Daily Food Diary win for the day was learning in real time the benefit of long term gain over instant gratification. 

I am not good at meeting specific result driven goals.  I get too frustrated if I cannot see my goals getting closer with every passing day.  My power is in commitment and longterm persistence.   I just plug along doing what I know has to be done – one day at a time.  The win is looking back over the year (or years)  and seeing what I have accomplished. ☺️

  4. A win’s a win, no matter how you slice it, Anne … and you’ve had so many … with another BIG win on the horizon… a successful and uneventful surgery! I love the end photo of the old world Santa. I had a couple of those for many years, but when we started downsizing, I gifted them to our grandkids.

  5. Thank you, Terry! Two days from now I will be home and happy to be here! Our grandkids might have ours as well. Jen & I went through the boxes and she adopted a number of our ornaments. I haven’t even looked at them yet to see what I kept. I never decorate until after the 17th and I’m keeping with tradition this year.
