That next day I mailed out 2 postcards and did my first run/walk of the year! I had been putting the running off because of the cold weather but I decided to suck it up and just do it. It was around 32 degrees that morning but I didn't die. I've been running/walking ever other day so far. On Wednesday I ran the whole mile without stopping for a walk break! I was so proud of myself. Well I went out this morning in 25 degree weather and had to walk twice for a short stretch. The cold really slowed me down. I still made good time though. I'm trying to get to where I can run a mile comfortably and then I'm going to up my distance. I've been using the Nike+ GPS app on my phone and I really love it!
This past Monday was a great day!!!! We won the National Championship!!!! It was great game and we watched it with some awesome friends. I don't know if I've mentioned this yet but Chris is building me a Alabama Pandora bracelet now. Every time Bama wins a game I get a charm for my bracelet. This was the other thing that I was referring to in my last "I Want Wednesday..." We went to the Pandora store in the Summit on Tuesday and he let me pick out 4 charms! He said that I needed more than 1 for the National Championship win and I won't be adding anymore beads until the fall.
I've also started taking an online photography class and the best part is it's FREE! I follow this wonderful lady on Instagram and she's a high school photography teacher. You can sign up for it through her blog. <------Click there to join the fun! We've already had one lesson but you can jump in at any time. This is the picture I submitted for my first assignment.
I used Chris' fancy Nikon D3000 and I think it came out pretty good.
Burlesque is back in full swing! We have a Review show at Green bar on Jan. 28th and we are doing a Valentine's show Feb. 11th at Green bar also. Check out www.Pinkboxburlesque.com for more info :) We have our individual and cast photo shoot tomorrow. Should be lots of fun as long as it's not too cold.
I think I've covered most of my busy week. Hope everyone has a great weekend and see you soon ; )
Sounds like an awesome start to the year! I've always found it so difficult to keep up with outdoor exercise in the winter. The app sounds like a great way to stay motivated.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes for your Valentine's show!
Yea I'm not the happiest about going out in the cold but I know that I will feel better if I just do it! haha Thanks :)
