GOING BOLD

I have to admit that I usually choose more traditional colors when it comes to nail polish. And most of the time I am only a shade off of the pinky reds I am drawn to. So when I was browsing polish yesterday, I was suprised to be drawn to Norra.

Norra is the ZOYA shade that I think resembles blackberries. It is darker than I normally wear. It is more purple than I normally wear. But I really was seduced by the mysterious depth of color in the bottle and even more infatuated once I painted it on my nails. Ahhh, yes, this may be my new color. At least for fall. I may have to go back again to find another luscious color for winter. But, it will be hard to break me away from this one.

Thats funny, because whenever I get the urge to paint my fingernails I always want to buy a shade like that. Deep purply vampy color. Like dark like black without being to Gothy. But I never buy it because I never keep my nails painted! Speaking of nails my are long right now and when I was shutting the car door tonight when I was on the phone with you getting Miss, I busted one! Arg I hate that, its always a middle one too!

I just have to give you props too mom for working out and dieting! I am only working out to keep my mind focused. I was dwelling too much on not being home with Miss and becoming a real downer. So I decided that it would me "count" the days so to speak, although the new pants I had bought are tighter now, so losing the five pounds I gained since Pooks and any additional will be good. But I am glad you and Bruce are pumping away! Can't wait to see you in January!! xoxo

A, Just tell remind yourself that every minute working out on the treadmill you are doing great things for you and your health.

Small changes in your eating and exercise pay off in big rewards. I'm loving the Bowflex! We shall see how much of an improvement I have in 6 months!
