Happy New Year's Eve! I hope that wherever you are, you are having a great weekend! Have a wonderful time tonight and I will see you next year!
The holidays are often very similar each year. There are holiday parties, get-togethers with friends and food to be eaten and presents to open with family. This December was no different. There were many people to see that I see every year, and many holiday traditions that were observed this year, just as they were last year. There were also a few things that were different. Here is December 2010 vs 2011, The Who, The What and The Where.
The Who: Every year I get together with friends in San Francisco for a
snackapalooza. This year was no different, except we got together in November instead! So we met up in Sacramento for some carb loading before
the marathon instead. Also, I get together with my old HS buddies on the day after Christmas each year. It's great fun and I am glad we have kept the tradition alive!

| 2010: Snackapalooza, San Francisco, 2011: CIM carb loading |

| 2010: Hail, grey skies and a large group, 2011: Sun in the eyes and less people |
The What: Last year I did many of the same things as this year. I went to see the birds; I ate cheese platters;
I make cookies. The only huge difference was
the running. Last year I took lots of walks; this year I took many runs instead (mileage last December: 0 miles, this December: about 100 miles).

The Where: Last year I went on
a road trip from California to Iowa, where I met up with my friend Red at her new house. This year, I have
been in California all month.

What were you doing last December? Do you do the same thing every Christmas or are your holidays varied?
