O GOD THY SEA IS SO GREAT AND MY BOAT IS SO SMALL!
My dad was in the Air Force. He never let anyone who worked for him celebrate a holiday alone in the barracks. Our house was often filled with young GI's. I have fond memories of many parties with them all. I remember one Christmas when I got a microscope (I was a nerd) and one guy nicked himself so we could look at blood.....
Today I was at the gym lifting weights and not only did I see the president, but we spoke. He said "How are you?" One time as he passed by me. Then he walked up to the leg machines I was on, I asked him did he need the one I was on, and he said he was doing it next. So I was exercising next to him for a bit. Then when I finished my last exercise (Decline Bench Press) he was walking around the corner right as I turned to walk out, and he said "See ya." It is a very big gym and I was not stalking him. I'm glad I got to see him, as I missed him Monday. And according to the news he is cutting his Hawaii trip short to try and keep our country from falling off that Fiscal Cliff on Capitol Hill!
I do my weights according to the order the machines are placed in the gym. Not very scientific. The president appears to do his workout from a sheet of paper he keeps in his pocket, and he ends up going all over the gym to different machines and areas. He appears to take his workout very seriously. He also appeared to be in great shape.
I just copied my above two paragraphs to post on FB. In case I confuse those of you who are also my alt universe friends!
Our Christmas Vegan Feast was nice. I think if I went totally vegetarian I could do it. Vegan, might be too hard!
Aloha,
Wendy

Yes, President Obama, in person! He comes to Hawaii every year, and works out at the Marine Corps base while he is in Kailua. I saw Mrs. Obama and the girls at the beach two years ago. I didn't go up to them, but other people were. I figured they needed some privacy.
BTW the president was sporting some nice Beats!

So cool. Obama has more energy then anyone. How does he maintain a work out regimin and run the country.
I have tried eating vegAn and it is too high maintenance for me. It does make me feel great and I have a ton more energy when I can do it but it's just not possible with a busy schedule.
I eat 90% vegetarian. I eat fish a couple times a week and once every few weeks I eat red meat. For me strictly vegetarian doesn't feel right. I have low energy even if I am eating lots of non meat protein.
When I am working a lot my diet goes to shhit - I am looking forward to getting rid of most of the sugar in the new year.
Your Christmas dinner sounded great!

I'm on the cookievore diet right now, with a side of winevore. Seriously. It's ridiculous. I'm going to have jaw muscles like a horse from eating cookies right out of the freezer.
I try to be locavore since I live in a rural area and can get meat and poultry from my neighbour farmers. Used to catch my own fish but those days are died with my marriage. It feels like weeks since a fruit that isn't wrapped in chocolate or non-potato vegetable passed my lips.
Back on track next week! But no vegan or vegetarian...I'd lose my mind. Love cheese and hate tofu way too much!
