What's Working..and Not So Much Wednesday!
What's Workin':
1. My pedicure I FINALLY got yesterday! I had a spare hour...so went for it. It felt like such a splurge, but I swear every time I glance down at my feet, I get a lil' boost and feel like I'm taking care of these lil' guys I ask sooo much from.
2. My current Brooks Running Shoe and Short Giveaway. Yes, this is also a plug, but ya can't blame a gal for milkin' a deal that's pretty sweet. And I'm frankly impressed to see how well y'all know the shoes. Dang! So many ps out there are Brooks Lovers, and I can't believe I haven't owned a pair yet..And if you haven't entered yet, whaddya waitin' for??
3. Early to bed, early to rise. Sunday night it was 10:30 (ouch), Mon it was 10:00 (better), and Tues night...9:30! Sweet! And I've risen early 2 of the 3 days. I can do it, I can do it...
What's Not:
1. I need to figure out a new pair of shoes to wear. I've been ONLY wearing these cushy sandals above or running shoes for the past four months. And well...it's the first day of Fall, and I gotta branch...these shoes can only last so long into the Fall/Winter. So need to figure out a new shoe situation soon. I just don't wanna mess up my feet. Any rec's??
That's what's generally going on for me. Now tell me, what's working and not so much for you this week? Tawk to me, tawk to me!

What is working for me this week, is the 45 sit-ups and 45 push-ups done daily.
Good luck with the remainder of your week!
I'm kind of bummin that I have to blow dry my hair again after a summer of letting it air dry.
Thanks so much for all these shoe rec's! These are great! keep em' comin. I feel like all this info warrants it's own post!
Your toes look awesome! I have never gone in for a pedicure...can you believe it!?! That is one of the things that is on my to do list! I hope that you are having a great week!
Not working for me - getting a cold :(
What's working? hm this week has kinda been a cluster. CLEANING OUT is working. Made a HUGE (4 black garbage bags and a vacuum) donation to B&G club and am still cleaning out. Feeling so much better having less clutter laying around.
What's not working? Getting up at 4:30am to swim way too many yards for my current fitness (lesson learned) and over caffienating!
My shoe recommendation and favorite shoe come the cooler months are the New Balance Classic 801 series.

That link will show you an example but they have zillions of colors. The shoes are comfy (like running shoes) and look great with jeans and are easy on and off!
What is working? training with my Times instead of my Garmin; no more number obsession.
What is not working? cheddar and tomato sandwiched between two small corn tortillas....yummy, but not good workout food :P
This winter, I want to get a pair of riding boots. Basically a pair of simple, flat boots that will look good with dresses, skirts, jeans. I find that if I wear "interesting" clothes, the 3 and 4 year-old kiddos seem to "like" me and are more willing to work with me.
Trust me. I'm obsessed with shoes. But only very cute very comfy ones.
