Despite there being a handful of kids at work I was still pretty tired and headachy by the time the afternoon rolled around. I had my date at the gym for my small group session with the personal trainer (5 of us and a trainer, much more affordable than one on one with a personal trainer... which if money were no object I would so have one!). I discovered I managed to loose 0.2lbs over the Christmas holidays despite being busy/lazy/sleepy/eating out/eating junk/etc...etc...etc. So that made my day!
After a shower and dinner I settled in for about two hours of stitching, its now after 10PM and I'm sleepy so its time to share today's small, new start (small, because of first day back to work, gym, being tired). This soon-to-be Santa is from Prarie Schooler's Book No. 172 Christmas Favorites. I picked it up for a steal when I stopped in at Because You Count in Moncton, N.B. on my trip home from Cape Breton (where I was also lucky enough to be invited for dinner and a bed for the night to break up my trip home with Jennifer Aikman-Smith of Dragon Dreams and her family! I used to be one of her model stitchers.).
When I have time to get back to him, he'll be quick to finish.

Stay warm Dani! I'm envious of snow days since we never get snow or snow days here but I don't envy those cold temperatures. Good for you for staying on track with fitness! Love your new PS start.
Congrats to you and your group at the gym too. Darling new ornament your stitching. love Annette
I love this and the other pieces you have started this year. They are great choices for the January Challenge. We got cold (-20 with windchill)and snow today down in NYS and the kids here got Tuesday off instead of Monday. Happy Stitching. I look forward to seeing what you start today.
PS Santa's are always so popular, he's lovely.
A snow day here would have been lovely. Yesterday wasn't too bad, and even though the buses were cancelled today because of the cold, my husband drove my son to school.
Yay for you for making to the gym on a bad weather day. And the Santa is very cute.
Lovely start and as you say, he should be an easy finish too.
Stay safe in that weather.
You stayed at Jennifer's house?!! You are so lucky!
I have been posting my 12 Dragonlets of Christmas on the FB page each day of the 12 Days along with the treats I put inside for my son. She says she really enjoyed seeing them, she is a lovely person!
