The Little Things

Happy Friday! I ran out of time to post last week so I have TWO weeks of nail polish for you! First of all, let’s start with this week! This week I’m wearing Essie’s Jamaica Me Crazy with “sparkle on top”:

To me this feels like a most ideal fall combination with the orange and yellow of the sparkle and the pink below it- it feels like fall, and for some reason it’s a bit difficult to see in the natural light.

Last week it was all about Essie’s Smokin Hot:

I love the richness that comes with this color, and it’s been my go to racing color. Above is the picture of that nail polish with the Arch in St. Louis!

And now for some Friday Facts:

I’ve been craving an Apple Chai for the last few weeks (I’d never had one before but it sounded delicious!), and I finally got one on Monday night! It was delicious… and then I remembered that it had caffeine in it! In my excitement I forgot, and I just can’t have caffeine past the early afternoon. Whoops 🙁

Last weekend I went to a soccer game, and it was windy and misting that night, so I threw up my hood and enjoyed the game. At the end of the game I snapped the picture below to my cousin, and it was only then that I realized that my hair blended into the fur on my coat and it looks like I have a full blown lion’s  mane. Oops!

The wind blowing from behind me certainly didn’t help.

Let’s talk about gas prices for a minute! I filled up for under $2.00 last weekend, and got SO excited! Does anyone else feel gleeful when they fill up for cheap?

Each week I try to do some Sunday Self Care. This week it involved my first indoor bike trainer ride, some time sitting outside grading quizzes, and reading and candlelight while watching Quantico. Is anyone else watching?

I’ve only bought race photos at one race before this year (Indy Monumental in 2014), but I decided to purchase photos from Rock’n’Roll St. Louis because I loved them! I just wish they were less expensive.

Now it’s your turn to share! What’s one random fact from your week?

      Thanks! I don’t often have spectators at races so if I want any pics of me at races, I have to buy them. I felt like this one was worth it 🙂
