November In Review

Time is flying by!  I really don't know where it goes, but I can't believe it's already December.  This week I'm trying to figure out what happens to my day(s).  I'm not working, so surely I should be done my Christmas shopping/have a sparkling clean house/be keeping up on correspondence, right?!  Oh, if only that were true!  Despite setting out to complete at least a project a day in order to feel somewhat productive, I'm behind on all of the above.  More on this soon, as I am tracking my time this week to figure out how to get the most out of December!

Before we get to that, I need to take a look back at November.  I started November with my longest no-rest streak ever.  I didn't run every day, but I did SOMETHING active every day for 21 days.  Usually, I went out for a full hour of walking or running and walking combined, though I did have to cut it short a couple of days due to some job prospects. This started at the end of October and took me into mid-November.  Then I took a rest day, for no good reason, and then kinda lost my steam.  I had an interview and was a pile of nerves that should have run, but didn't, and there was a day spent baking...  After an off week I got back into things this week and finished off the month with three snowy 5K runs with Cookie.  It is getting too cold to walk in the same clothes that I run in, so we're either going to have to run longer, or go out twice in two outfits if we're going to keep aiming for an hour a day.

Time spent running:   6 hours 32 minutes

Time spent walking:  14 hours 57 minutes

Time spent yoga-ing: 2 hours 50 minutes
Homemade Christmas gifts completed:  2

Christmas cookies in the freezer:  102

Christmas cookies in my tummy:  I've lost count.

What I'm looking forward to in December:  Night-skiing and a weekend away with the girls!
