My Mom is 84 going on 85, 
smoked everyday of her life since she was 14 (disgusting, I know)
 has never lifted one weight or done any exercising what so ever, but she did raise 5 kids, 15 grandkids and 14 great grandchildren (and one on the way) and I call that being a superwoman.
Who needs to exercise with all that.
Her list of accomplishments are to numerous to list, but you get the point.
 Has never drank a smoothie,
eaten margarine and butter and probably everything else
 that we have been told that is bad for us
 and will shorten our lives and she is still going strong.
 I don't know another person as strong as her.
The reason for writing this post,
 is because of this  article,
 I saw the link on the blog, Tales of me and husband

 I think all this new age eating is killing us and that is my humble opinion.
 Bon Appetite...

The aftermath.
Every year, I downsize my Christmas stuff. 
But this year, I'm loving just about everything that I have for Christmas decorating.
 So I think, I will keep everything.
 It's mostly baubles, plastic trees, plastic garland and a few knick knacks.
 I started buying fresh garlands, wreaths, trees, tree cuttings and other Christmas clippings, and after the new year, it all gets thrown away.
 No more storing a bunch of stuff.
 It's bitter sweet taking it all down.
 My january is already looking busy, so I am glad to get it done.
 Next up, my office.
 I have procrastinated to long in that room.
 But of course, that is when I do my best work.
 It will definitely be a load off my shoulders,
 once I get organized and up to date with my hubbies quickbooks for the year. 
The whole year.
 That is what I have to enter.
  See you in February (wink wink...)
