5 miles today.  leg feels all better, but now I have a small cold.  no work out yesterday b/c my 4 year old woke me up in teh night and couldn't get to sleep.  

my candy & chocolate consumption has been a bit high since my birthday.  :)  It's been licorice, chocolate covered ju ju hearts, peanut m&ms, peanut butter m&ms, plain m&m's, chocolate hearts w/ carmel in the middle, and one huge pb cup non stop since the 31st.  I think I need an intervention.  :)

I usually do pretty good in the summer, but then Halloween hits, then Christmas candy, then my birthday, then Valentines day, then Easter.  And finally after Easter I decided to change, but only until Halloween.
