Happy New Year!

I love the Christmas season; however, I'm glad the food part of it is winding down. I've cleaned out stuff from the fridge and pantry, and am looking forward to my holiday-related excuses going away. I had both good and bad diet days, so that really was a wash.

I think changing some other habits will also help with the food thing. I'm trying to form better sleep habits, which should help all-around health-wise. I also need to start walking again, both for exercise and for fresh air. They say that will also help with sleep, in addition to weight loss and blood-pressure reduction.

So, tonight is the last food-related event of the season. I'm referring, of course, to the Orange Bowl. Go Hokies!

Happy and Healthy and Blessed 2009, everyone!
