01:: Hubs and I have been staying up way too late every night watching the Olympics, and we're pretty sad that it's over. I loved watching the games with him and being amazed at how fast and skilled these athletes are. It's been inspiring to watch Mo Farah, Missy Franklin, the Fab 5 and Kirani James {first medal for Granada!} win the gold. It kills me when they show the athletes' parents cheering for their kids. And has anyone else noticed how good the commercials are?
02:: Apparently the Olympics inspired Mike and me to start running again. Tuesdays, Thursday, Fridays and Saturdays we run 2-3 miles after work {in the hot, hot sun}. Glad to have exercise in our lives again. Hubs gave me a Timex sports watch for our anniversary so that I can keep track of my running times - it totally motivates me to push myself on our runs.
03:: I am loving this new basecoat called "Sticky" from CND. My friend Paige suggested I get some after complaining that my nails were chipping the day after I painted them. Seriously, this stuff works. It keeps nail polish on my nails for a week plus!
04:: I've been thinking about taking a break from facebook or completely disabling my account. What do you think? I think it's more of a time-waster for me these days than anything else. At the same time, it would be hard since we are far away from so many friends and family, and I love being able to see their pictures and updates.
05:: We bought a new dresser {well, new to us} last Sunday night. I was so proud of hubs. He was spontaneous with me and jumped in the car after seeing a post on Craig's List. Now, I'm itching to redecorate our bedroom. I'm sure I'll post more details about it soon. :)
What was your favorite Olympic event? I loved watching the runners, but diving was my favorite. Since we don't have cable, Hubs was bummed because he couldn't watch the less popular sports {table tennis, kayaking, basketball}.
