Pinterest Polish

Well, hello there! I've had an interesting week and a half or so. I mentioned in my last post that we were off to Prauge for the weekend, and I will post about that soon, but first I want to update you on my fitness progress. Last week I worked out four days, so I'm starting to get there. I'm looking forward to the weather getting a little warmer, because its been cooooolllld here. Once it does I'll be able to log some road miles!

I have also tried a couple of Pinterest nail arts. The one on the left is called Saran Wrap nails. I painted the coral color first and let it dry completely. Then I painted the aqua color and patted a piece of Saran Wrap over the wet polish until it looked as I wanted it to. Then I painted over it with quick dry top coat. The accent nail was done with striper polish.

The right nail was just done with white polish, five vibrant colors and a bobby pin.

This weekend I am going on a mission trip with my church to Poland. I'm very excited and will update soon!

Valentine's Day Nails

Today is the day of love. And here are my nails on love. For this manicure I used Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Frutti Petutie as the base color, Julep Oscar as the gold sparkle on my ring finger, and some Kiss brand stripers. Happy Valentine's day!

P.S. this is my first post uploaded from my iPhone app, what do you think?

Wait...I have a blog?

Here I go again reverting back to my old ways.  I start something and then it gets hard, or I forget to do it once so I ultimately quit.  NOT THIS TIME!  Yeah, I started this blog a month ago, and already started slacking on my posts.  No, I'm not giving up this easily.  I guess I just haven't really thought of much that was interesting to say, or so I thought.

I've also found it hard to get back into the marathon training schedule.  I keep coming up with excuses, but it is LEGIT cold outside, and I find it UUUBBBER boring to run more than 2 miles on the treadmill.  So I have only been able to force myself to do it 4 times since my last post.  I did it twice two weeks ago and twice last week.  I talked to my sister about it yesterday, and about how I give up so easily, and she was so much nicer to me than I am to myself.

The lesson that I'm learning, and the one that I've been trying to learn my whole life, is that even if it doesn't go perfectly as planned, it's still not okay for me to give up.  Blogging is something that I've been wanting to do for a while.  SO, I'm going to do it.

Upcoming topics to be seen:

• A trip to Prague for the 4 day weekend this weekend.
• More nail photos (I've recently received more polishes that I ordered)
• Some pinterest pins that I've tried.
• continued progress on my marathon training
