In September I set goals, and went out to eat with the rents and coworkers. We had a puppy play date, deck sitting with the family, and time at the lake. I reminisced about my favorite memories of summer, lost 23 pounds total, and wrote about a moment I felt like an adult. We celebrated my mom's birthday, had a bonfire, and I shared some good internet reads. We ate Mexican food and saw a friends' new house, took Manny to his annual vet appt and binge watched Hart of Dixie. I got a Fitbit and went downtown Detroit for restaurant week and to a Lions game.

I shared my wish list, enjoyed good family time and went to the local showing of Mary Poppins. I had my annual eye checkups and spent the whole day with my mom having girl time. We got slammed with over 15 inches of snow and enjoyed a low key, long Thanksgiving weekend.
In December I set goals, hiked at the lake, Christmas shopped, grilled out and had a bonfire in the most amazing winter weather EVER. I started Weight Watchers, hit 25 pounds lost, went to a girls night cookie exchange and did a brewery tour with friends.
