Thursday Ramblings...

Soooo glad it's Thursday. Although, I really wish it was Friday. This weekend is going to be a busy one. The LSU Baseball season opener is Friday night. Saturday, I'm going to our Godchild Lane's, birthday party followed by another LSU game Sunday. This is the first time in a really long time that the weather is going to be great for opening weekend. We've been in the 70's all week & that's supposed to continue!

Yesterday, was my 7th Yogalates class. I don't know if I've mentioned but each Monday the "routine" changes. You're still working all your muscles but the exercises are a little different. For example, we always do some sort of push ups. Last week you could do regular ones or "girl" ones. This week is these things they call "cricket". While you're doing the push up you bend a knee & stick it out to the side. I don't know if that makes any sense but it's the best I can come up with. These things are HARD. Especially, being that I can barely do a regular pushup. There's different ab work than the previous weeks & the leg work is different. It definitely keeps class from getting boring. I'm also excited to report that despite my questionable eating over the weekend I did manage to lose a pound last week. Yes, I know it's nothing to go crazy over but I ate, wasn't starving & I lost SOMETHING. I'm very excited.

I FINALLY remembered to use this the other day.
I've used it 3 days & I really like it. My skin definitely feels cleaner & softer. A tube of Olay exfoliater comes with it too. It seems to be pretty gentle. It seems like my makeup is going on smoother but I could just be imagining that.

Toodles!

Random Hump Day!

It's Wednesday & that means Yogalates! I can't say that I'm excited about it but I do look forward to it a little so that's something right? I've been eating pretty good this week too. Hopefully, that will continue.

I bought this thing Sunday at CVS.
I use the term buy loosely because technically it was free! HA! I had CVS Extra Bucks & coupons. I've seen lots of people talking about the Clarisonic but with the price tag on that thing there was no way I was buying it. I saw the Olay one in the paper & it's only $30. Affordable even if you don't have coupons. Has anyone tried it? Olay claims it works just as well as the Clarisonic. I haven't tried it yet because I keep forgetting. Hopefully, I'll remember tonight.

Today's another beautiful day. Yes, that's sarcasm. It's cold, cloudy & going to start raining this afternoon. I'm soooo over the weather. I'm ready for pretty days & pool water warm enough to get in!

I finished a couple more books in the last week.  The first one was How I Learned to Love the Walrus
I've read another book by Beth Orsoff & really, really liked it. It was called Romantically Challenged. This Walrus one wasn't as good as that one but it was cute & it was only $2.99 on the Nook so I really can't complain. The other book I finished is Stash.
This one started out great. I was able to get interested in it right away & it didn't take long before something happened to really get you into the story. However, it didn't continue that way. There were like 3 or 4 main characters & they were all involved with the same story line but the way the author went from one to the other seemed choppy to me. I don't know how to explain it but suffice it to say I don't recommend this one. Luckily, this came from the free book pile at work that my friend Wendy has access to. Currently, I'm reading Kisser by Stuart Woods.
This is the 17th book in the Stone Barrington series. I really love these books. They're murder mysteries but always good. They don't have to be read in order either. 

I guess I've been random enough for one day. Have a good Wednesday!

Toodles!
