morning workouts

After a good break from the gym, I'm back at it. Last week Husband and I went 4 times, at 5am. This week I've gone twice already, at 6am. Husband was off yesterday and needed to sleep, and he had to be at work by 6am today. I'm hoping he can go with me tomorrow.

I've been gymming long enough to know that I need to get up and go. If I dawdle too long, I end up skipping it. When I workout before heading to work, I leave the apartment within 20 minutes of waking up. It's wake up, pee, put my contacts in, feed the cats, drink some water, and go.

Back when I was going to Jazzercise (from 2000-20007!), I went after work. I very rarely went home first, because it made leaving so hard. I know that once I'm at the gym, I'll stay and have a good time. But it's actually getting there that's the tricky part. ;)

New dress!

I ordered this dress from JCrew to wear to a wedding next month, and I love it! Even though I got it in petite, I need to have the straps altered a little. It fits really well other than the straps, and makes my legs look long and my waist look small. I'm quite a fan!

I'll wear it with my grey heels, which are from last season, and I can't find a picture.

Husband is in the wedding, as the best man, and he'll have a tux on. I don't know what colors he'll have, but I hope it matches my dress!

Back when I was teaching and making serious (well, serious compared to what I make now) money, I got my toes done every two weeks. Now that I'm part time and hourly, I still get pedicures, but much less frequently.

However, I'm not sure this is an economically wise choice, as I have started buying nail polish like it's going out of style. I really like this Sally Hansen line. They have all kinds of bright colors, and the brush is super wide and makes it easy for me to paint my toenails.

So today, I'm painting them Speedy Sunburst. It looks like a watermelon kind of pink. My toes are currently red, from a pedicure I indulged in two weeks ago. And I hope this Speedy Sunburst lasts until I get to CA and do the girls' day pedicure with my MIL, my SIL to be, and her mother and sister.
