ran 2 miles around the track today with Wes and the kiddos.  Went to visit the in-laws and my own folks this weekend while my husband studied for and took his first final of his MBA program.  I think he did alright!

A few items:

I don't sleep well with my kids in the same bed, or in a strange/new bed.

I don't care what anyone tells you ladies (and burt) no bake cookies, halloween candy, and ice cream do not help with your endurance or speeed when running. :)  I love halloween, but I hate that I don't control my eating during october.  It's a free for all.  don't worry weight gain has been minimal. : )

I must nod in agreement to the halloween thing. I don't even buy halloween candy until that day - or I WILL eat it all! The best solution I've found is to set a weight loss/maintain goal during the holidays with a big reward around the first of Feb...keeps me focused through the crap!
