I really need to update this blog more often when I take the photos. LOL!
It's a tad blurry, sorry. I have a hard time taking photos with my left hand. This was my tribute to Fat Tuesday. This bracelet is from New Orleans. Got it as a gift when I was there last year. It's kinda sad. A whole year since I've seen many of my friends. Love ya ladies!
My other nod to New Orleans, my fluer de lis necklace. This also came from New Orleans. I love this necklace. I found it in the cutest little shop. They had lots of adorable jewelry and writing materials. I also bought a fluer de lis in silver, so I can wear one no matter what color I wear. :-)
Well, it's been awhile, but I have been taking photos. Sorta. There isn't much going on, so there aren't too many photos, but here are some:
March 22, 2009 - I'm not the world's fastest runner by any means, so 13:14 isn't that great for a 1 mile run, but it is the fastest time I've ever had! I did this yesterday. It made me happy to beat my personal record. I go each Sat. to the park. Next week I'm hoping to go back to 2 miles.
March 22, 2009 - Lizzie and I were sleepy last night. LOL! I was a tad surprised that she stayed like this actually. She will spend HOURS sitting on my lap, but not so much cuddling like this. So, when she stayed, I grabbed the camera and had to take a picture. Isn't she cute?
March 23, 2009 - It's back! Classes that is. And the homework. Ugh. I'm almost done for this semester, will be done at the end of April. Which is kinda freaking me out. Today I worked on Literary Review. That's oh so fun. In just two weeks my Introduction to my thesis is due. Can you see why I'm freaking out???
Because one injury in a weekend is just not enough. *rolleyes* Hubby and I were making a delicious dinner of mac 'n cheese with green and orange peppers, corn and tomatoes when I slammed by poor left index finger in the vegetable crisper. My poor finger swelled up immediately and it sure as heck hurt! So this was the weekend of injury for Chris. LOL!
Warning: Gross photo
So, Friday I went for a walk. I try to walk at lunch a couple times a week for some exercise, since I have class two nights a week, so I can't do much at night those days.
So, Friday off I went. I have a nice 30 minute route laid out. I went off walking. I got about 2/3 of the way through my walk and the sidewalk attacked. I was minding my own business when the sidewalk tripped me. I went down hard on my right palm and right knee, as you can see. It was freakin' painful! And to top it all off it, the fall caused a tear in the knee of my FAVORITE pants! So ticked!!!
Knee feels better today (Sunday), but there is still some pain. Stupid knee...
So, you saw what my Mii looks like, so now you can see what I look like in person doing Wii Fit. :) I was doing the Advanced Step, which is the one I do the most often. It's 5 minutes, which is long enough to add up quickly, but not so long that I get bored. LOL!
And don't those roses look nice? My lovely hubby gave them to me for Valentine's Day. Isn't he sweet?
This really only happens in winter, all the kitties on the sofa with me. The reason? It has nothing to do with me, it has all to do with the fleece. It's a kitty magnet. I do love when the sit with me though. They are the nicest kitties and are great heat generators. LOL! It was a lazy afternoon, which was nice.
From closest to farthest - Pooka (black kitty), Higgy (tabby cat), Elizabeth (the kitty curled up on the red fleece blanket)
For Christmas, my wonderful hubby got me the Wii Fit. I played with my Mii and this is what I look like on the screen when I use it. I thought it was kinda funny and while it's not me, it is Mii. LOL! I wish I could change clothes though. I would NEVER wear white pants!
