I headed to my mom’s yesterday afternoon because Matt forgot something at our place that they needed for the week. They are headed to Yosemite this morning for a week of camping fun. Luckee!!!!
Anyways, since they were rushing around getting stuff ready and packed I went through some of my old stuff and found my old collection of DvDs. Ha! Please note, I don’t like any of these ones. There was a really good Denise Austin one, but it’s not in this pile?!
But, I did find this Open Water Swimming DvD that I bought senior year of college. That was when I first tried to train for a triathlon. I ended up having to quit because I was taking 15 units, working and doing an internship. We’ll see how next week goes with my iTrythlon. Luckily, it’s just a pool swim!
I also got into our old home videos! I was born a big ol’ ham sandwich and the day my mom got our first video camera I am right there singing all the songs I know (and making a few up)!
I was also in a mall fashion show because my Grams worked there.
Look at that booty!
Since we were in the neighborhood I got my nails and eyebrows done at my old fave place. My brows are fried (I just think my skin is too sensitive and I need to stick to threading, bah.) But I’m happy with my toes!
We stayed pretty late and I came home and immediately crashed.
Now I’m trying to plow through some emails before I get my day started. I am going to attempt a brick workout with Pam’s triathlon group in a bit! Ah! Super scared.
Fuel for a brick workout? Sunday Pancakes!
Of Interest:
1. Did you hear about this Sudanese man who will be able to run “without a country” (the Republic of South Sudan hasn’t been approved by the IOC yet).
2. I was interviewed by Tour De Fit
PS – I got an email that someone bought a new phone on my mobile account and customer service keeps dropping my call. NOT cool.
Question: How was your Saturday?!
I had my brows threaded once, and I literally CRIED the entire time. That was the most painful thing I’ve ever done – and I’ve had natural childbirth twice! Seriously. Ouch! I’m a firm believer in waxing now 🙂
I agree! I think threading HURTS!!! And my eyes water very easily so tears were streaming down my face, but I swear I wasn’t crying.
Baby video–so cute!!! I actually meant to go through my childhood videos last night in search of one particular one from a camping trip, so thanks for the reminder 🙂
Your toes are done beautifully.
You were a pretty little girl. So cute.
Hey, I was also browsing old pics yesterday night – mainly those from grad school (which now seems like an eternity ago!!!). Oh I miss my classmates and the times we had in Cambridge.
And I love those sandals!
You were so cute! I know this is kinda random and sounds really gross, but a great cure for red, puffy eyebrows is hemorrhoid cream. It reduces the redness and swelling. My eyebrows stay bright red for a few days after waxing if I don’t use the cream, but with it I look normal within a few hours. 🙂
Thanks for the tip! I’m not sure I can use it just yet though since my skin is scabbed, would it make it burn?
It shouldn’t burn even with scabs. I buy the extra strength pain relief with aloe (the no name stuff). My friend recommended it to me after seeing my bright red brows two days after waxing. The cream is meant to heal and I’ve never had a problem with it.
How funny is that guy in the backround of your KMart fashion show booty shot?! Total 80s fit and stache!
I can’t believe they are dropping your calls..I would press 0 as soon the automated service answers
I agree that is a beautiful pedicure! I usually go with brights on my toes, but maybe I should consider a pastel.
What a cute kid you were. I love your red hair!
How did the brick workout go?
you have pretty feet Monica! hope that’s not creepy!! 🙂
love your hair! muy bonita chica!! 🙂
Thanks Pam! How’s it going?!
De nada! everything’s great! 🙂 hope to see you Thurs!
Best red hair ever!
Well, I’m feeling a bit hungover today, if that’s any indication as to how my Saturday was 🙂
It was a good night a bar hopping though!
I had a great day with my niece and nephew. Now they are gone and we’re picking up the other two in awhile. It’s an Auntie Amber weekend! Fun stuff.
I wish I could still watch my old home movies. Some old VCR messed up the videos a long time ago. I still have them, but every time I’ve tried to watch one it is just snow 🙁
I LOVE fitness DVDs! I’m going to start collecting good ones for college! Eeeee! (:
You look like a doll in those videos, so amazingly cute! My 16 month old daughter is already a ham (we call her Ham Sammie since her name is Samantha) and if she grows up to have a personality like yours I’d be thrilled!
I bet seeing those videos of you as a cute little kid gave Ben more baby fever!!!
You probably already know this, but your skin irritation could be due to the time of your current cycle. You shouldn’t wax a week before, a week after or during your period. TMI? It limits your waxing window, but trust me, your skin will thank you!
Have you tried calling a local store for your cell service? I’ve found they are usually better to work with vs. the national customer service number. Good luck!
There’s a great threading place in the District. It’s across from JT’s… It’s buy 10 get one free.
You look like you’re dressed as Rainbow Brite in the KMart fashion show. Sooo cute! 🙂 I wish I had old videos of my childhood, I’m a sucker for nostalgia.
I seriously think cell phone companies have the most frustrating customer service (followed up by satellite companies). Time to get mean 😉 Oh, and you were super cute as a youngin’.
You were a super cute kid. 🙂
Your toes are beautiful! What color? Essie or OPI? Do you feel ready for your iTrythlon?
oh my gosh girl you are presh as a child.
that hair!
such a cutie!
So random, but…. love your Target sandals! I have them in pink (and am wearing them today, thats the only reason I noticed this.) Hope you have a fab Sunday.
