Confession Time. That’s Not How I Look

Fun

29 Oct

Hello! Happy day! How’s it going over there? Over here it’s going well. I’m hard at work putting together a Halloween costume for my dog. Yes, seriously. I am not sure if it’s going to work out but I’m hoping it’s a slam dunk (and hoping she keeps it on). I want to give you a hint on it but I’m too lazy to get one of the pieces from my car to show ya.

Let’s talk about running and eating, shall we? I’ll go first Winking smile

Per my marathon training plan I am running only about 4 days a week. That means today was a rest day so I took a walk listening to Undisclosed and then did some upper body strength work at home.

Okay now it’s confession time. It’s been too long and I have a lot of get off my flat chest.

1. I have been getting compliments on my skin and glow lately. On Instagram people have been asking what I use on my face.

I have to confess, it’s not my face or skin or skin care. Well, I mean it is MY face. But it’s not that my face skin looks good or better,  I mean, um, nevermind. Honestly, I think a good facial helps too. If you’re looking for one, check out lindsaykeith.com.

Basically, I think it’s my phone. Sad, but true.

When I went to get my new phone I took a selfie with it and a few others to compare. This one is like pre-filtered or something, I don’t know it just looked better than the others. The point is my face is getting older and sadder and stuff, so the pics are a trick or something. (I have the Samsung 6)

2. I got a salad and large french fries at Del Taco the other night. And apparently I took a picture of one of those things – because I ate all the fries in my car.

3. I babysat for friends the other night and ate all their popcorn. I love popcorn and this stuff is good!

4. I think this is the most clever costume I’ve ever seen and no one else thinks it’s as funny as I do (I know this because I’ve sent it to everyone I’ve ever met except my pastor at church).

5. Speaking of church, I really want to start an all-women’s bible study group called “Jesus Jugs”.

6. I’m super bummed I am not running the New York City Marathon this year. I think it might be my favorite marathon! But I did get to help SR pick out her pre-race gear today. And by ‘help’ I mean I tried on random costumes at the Good Will and embarrassed her.

7. I had fro-yo for lunch.

8. Today is National Cat Day, but I’m not telling Vegas because then he’ll feel entitled to extra turkey and I want it all for myself.

Question: Got anything to confess?

    Any thoughts you would like to share on Undisclosed? Are you also interweaving Truth and Justice (formerly Serial Dynasty)? I’m basically obsessed. I thought Serial was well done, but I can’t believe all the new things they have uncovered. I really want to know more about Don now!

    Today I ate carbs and more carbs and more carbs. I had a burrito filled with rice for lunch…and for dinner I had autumn soup at Panera with a turkey sandwich and a baguette and a green ice tea. I am so happy from all those carbs!! I haven’t eaten that many carbs in I can’t remember how long!!! AND I don’t feel guilty about it!

    I made my bed today only because I knew my boyfriend was coming over and I like him to think I’m tidy. But really I hate making the bed and usually never do. 🙂

    the beauty face filter on the samsung phones is great- it’s automatically turned on and that’s why your photos look different with that phone. i suppose you could turn it off if you really wanted….
