Finding Good Mascara

Workout:  3 mile tempo run, abs, and upper body endurance - I had to throw in the upper body endurance video (which is killer tough) because I'm making chocolate chip cookies today:))

I'm definitely not a beauty expert.  I'm your typical drug store shopper when it comes to hair and make-up supplies.  And I get my hair cut at the mall.  Which according to some is totally ghetto!!  I'm a stay at home mom so I obviously don't need to look glamorous, but I still want to look cute.  And thankfully, you can make yoga pants and a t-shirt look super cute!!


And as far as make-up goes, the one must have product I need to look cute is mascara!  Most days it is all I put on.  It's easy, it's quick, and it does amazing things to the eyes!  And, it makes me feel prettier.

 However, finding a good mascara is so dang hard!!!  I thought maybe I wasn't finding good mascara because I was buying drug store brands.   I then decided to do mega research one night on good mascara. Soooooooo, in my quest to find the most amazing mascara I found Dior Diorshow to be either #1 or #2 in the polls.  And I splurged.  I wanted long beautiful eyelashes like Kim Kardashian so badly that I spent the money.  Okay, actually I found it on e-bay with free shipping for only $13!!  Anyway,   bye-bye Rimmel crap, and hello good mascara!!!


And I must say - I'm totally NOT impressed!

Pros:  It doesn't clump, ever!!!

Cons:  Pricey - around $28

I thought my list of pros would be a mile long, but sadly, my quest for good mascara is still not over. And yes, I know those Kardashians have beautiful eyelashes because they are fake;)

Summer Races

Workout:  3 miles easy - 100% humidity and dew point of 76!!  UGH!! Since fall is here in just a few days I thought I should throw my summer races up on the blog while it is still officially summer!!;) I was pumped about my summer races.  I had a good workout plan in my mind, and I was going to break 23 minutes!!  I was so determined!  Well, I thought I was so determined.  But, I guess I wasn't that  determined because things fell apart pretty quick.  There was vacation, and then our cruise, and then traveling up to Illinois.  And although I could have run during all these events, well,  I didn't.  OOPS!! Fisher Fair 5k I ran this race with my brother, and this was his first race in 20 years!!  It was really cool to run it with him, and to see him get back into running.  I actually only ran "with him" for about 7 steps, and then he took off. Mile 1 -7:34  Yeah, way too fast.  I'm actually pretty good a...

A little mommy rant!

Workout: HIIT download/2mile run Okay moms, I hate being bombarded in every parent's magazine and internet article about all these super star moms.  You know, the moms  that feed their kids organic food, only let their children play educational games, and make their two year old do service projects. You can judge and put your nose up in the air about me, but that is totally okay, because I judge you, too!!!   Seriously, I want to throw my greasy hamburger in their face and tell them to shove it.  My kids are awesome, healthy, happy, and enjoy life.  And I enjoy the things I do being their mom.  It is totally okay to: 1.   let my kids eat McDonald's french fries.  2.   let my children watch cartoons....right smack dab in front of the t.v.  3.  Allow them to drink  a late night polar pop!!  I believe this is Dr. Pepper. 4.  iPad games instead of story time at bed!! I don't care that these things...

Running on a break

Workout:  30 minute run - 10 minutes easy, 15 minutes hard, 5 minutes easy.  Ab work Running I decided to take a break from running.  My knee had been bothering me, and all my runs felt sluggish.  After a lot of going back and forth I decided that maybe a little bit of a running break was what I needed.  The funny thing is that I am kinda still running while "on a break".  So, the day after I decided to take a break I signed up for 2 races.  Oops!  Ok, one race isn't until December so that doesn't count.  But, the other race is this Saturday.  I have been running 2 - 3 days a week.  Just easy 25-30 minute runs.  Basically, just enough survive the 5K.  The race should pretty much be torture.  I am NOT in race shape at all!  And it has been HOT!! Yeah!!  I'm talking sweat dripping, eyes burning, seriously can't see a thing HOT!!!  I would have jumped in the lake behind me here,  but I saw a m...
