2. December is shaping up to be one busy month. We leave for Cuba in 17 days (who's counting?) and before then I have to finish (start) Christmas cards, Christmas shopping, some baking, shopping/packing for our trip and we have 5 parties and 2 family dinners to attend during that time. Not to mention training for Goofy and working my butt off for the Holiday Bootie Buster Challenge/Project Lean Mean Running Machine. Yes, I am going to NEED a vacation.
3. Last but not least, thank you to the lovely Amanda of RunToTheFinish (our HBBC Hostess Extraordinaire) for this award.
You can learn more about the Atta Girl Award here. Thanks again Amanda!

Well way to get out there and run anyway. Sometimes you just feel better after you do it - even if you really really don't want to at first. And just think you are one day closer to your awesome vacation!!!! So jealous!
5 parties? Oh my. You are busy!
I had a hard time getting out of bed this morning for my run and was glad I did. I felt so good and ready to start the day well before 6am!
So cool about Cuba. I've heard they have the most amazing beaches. Andy said once Castro dies we'll go!! Take lots of pics.
CUBA?! Take me, take me! Why and for how long. I so want to go!!!! Take a zillion pictures please.
Cuba certainly sounds like a nice reward for surviving a crazy month!
Keep up the good work with all the running and extra stuff.
MCM Mama
Sorry yesterday was crappy. December is a fun month but it is always crazy huh? Cuba will make it all worth it!
great job getting out there, vacation sounds much needed :)
great job getting out on a run that you didn't want to do.
and you definately NEED that vacation. lots going on between now and then
is K&D mac and cheese like Kraft in the blue box? Cuz I could eat a whole box of that too!
The mac and cheese sounds good! :)
I'm glad you had the group waiting for you! Definitely gets you out the door!
Honestly Marlene you are making us all look bad! You keep racking up all those points! You definitely need a vacation!
Great job getting your run in even though the couch was calling! You are doing an awesome job on the HBBC, I can't keep up!
You are busy!! Super helpful when others are counting on you.
You are smokin those HBBC points.
Nice job getting those workouts in! Keep it up with that busy schedule. And once you get back from Cuba, if you want to come train me in how to be a lean, mean running machine, you are totally invited. :)
Way to tough it out..
OK weird can women who Blog together alot end up in the same cycle?? Because I have been PMSing all week.. I am also blaming the full moon..
Hugs and good luck getting everything done..
Glad to hear hubby joined the group and you managed to sneak some miles in!
Cuba?? jealous...
Great job on the run. It was not a fun night to run. I am seriously procrastinating on the 100 + cards I have to write out. This year the husband is not getting out of it.
5 pts (i.e. Miles!) is still something impressive - especially when mac & cheese + couch was one of the options ;)
omg Christmas shopping....haven't even gotten to that thought-process yet.....
way to get out and run marlene :) the couch is all too tempting some days. good thing you got those 5 pts 'cause i'm sure you would've gone negative had you sat and ate mac n cheese instead ;)
You do have a busy December, but so great to have a trip to look forward to!
good for you on your double run, sounds like you are going to be very ready for the goofy! so exciting. you are my training inspiration, you train hard but really smart! and perhaps you are getting faster because you rock as well? i think so ;)
