Girlie stuff

I bought one of those make up kits that was too cheap to resist: over sixty colors of eye makeup, six rouges, 18 lip colors, six nail polish, etc., etc., for $15.00. I never buy nail polish, but hey, there it was, so I put on nail polish for the first time in fifteen years last night. And I didn't do a bad job for a rank amateur.

When I got to work this morning, I realize that the outfit I put on clashes with it horribly. It figures.

Welcome to LiveJournal to annieways

I wish to offer a warm welcome to annieways, who is lkw18's mom and is finally getting up her nerve to stick in her toe and try LJ herself. She and her husband D., who are very good friends from my old church, will be hosting the small study group I'll be joining on Sunday evenings during Lent, with the new church the girls and I are trying. Welcome, Anne! I hope you like LiveJournal as much as lkw18 and I have!

The path of virtue

Today's workouts:

3 fifteen minute cardio workouts on the elliptical at my office gym (total: 45 minutes). An hour yoga class after work. And I am leaving for a 1/2 hour karate class in a few minutes.

Breakfast: Shredded Wheat with banana, a tablespoon of Grape Nuts, a tablespoon of dried cranberries, and soy milk. Made a 1% coffee mocha (1 tsp cocoa powder) with 1/2 tsp sugar.
Lunch: Healthy Choice frozen chicken meal (breaded chicken, mashed potatoes, corn and peas, and cherry compote)
Dinner: braised kale, with a couple of ounces of chopped ham, 3/4 cup mashed potatoes. Had a half-glass of red wine for my heart, and took a calcium and vitamin pill.

Edited to add: had a late night snack: banana crumble: crumble topping: 2 TB wheat germ, 2 TB quick oats, cinnamon to taste, 1 TB orange juice concentrate. Mix them up, throw over the top of a sliced banana, and microwave for a minute and a half. This crumble topping is great for throwing over a lot of different types of fruit (e.g., apples, peaches, etc.) and microwaving.

Shazaam!
