Thoughtful. I’m thinking about how to be less afraid of change. When I was younger I could roll with the punches so easily, but as I get older I find I get more and more set in my ways. I’m feeling I need to push myself to mix it up…
It’s raining, which usually means my hair will go from zero-to-POOF the instant I step outside. I wrangled it into two low pigtails and stuck a hat on top.
Stila Lash Visor Waterproof Mascara in Black (from the Foxy Barbie Loves Stila beauty can). Have you tried it? It’s kinda awesome.
Super casual today — gray sweatshirt, khaki t-shirt, jeans and shiny black galoshes with a multi-colored argyle print
Nothing on my fingers, but Spa Ritual Lacquer in Treasure on my toes
See’s milk chocolate candies, reality TV marathons, shoes
Reading body language, baking peach cobbler, remembering random song lyrics from the ’80s
A mini BLT sandwich, a banana and blueberry yogurt
Overcast and rainy with temps in the mid-50s
Catch up on back issues of The Economist that have piled up on the living room floor, do lots of laundry (blah!), find out how to plant and grow lavender (I’m kinda obsessed with it), not let my body hair sitch get too jungly, get all my regular work done
Where my girls at on this lovely Monday? Are you ready to grab some coffee and catch up? Please copy the list below, and paste it with your answers in the comments.

Faye,
I’m sorry hear about the loss of your co-worker.
Karen, if you get on that stairstepper you have my admiration. I’m pretty fit and work out six days a week, but I cannot STAND that Stairmaster. I once told someone my idea of hell was Stairmaster-Stepping into infinity.
Hi again, Faye
I love/hate that thing. Love it because it really blasts the calories in a small amount of time, hate it because I’m always on the verge of falling off or passing out. Last time I was on it I tried stepping without holding onto the hand railings and let me tell you that was 100 percent NOT FUN.
I think you’ve hit it spot on — there should be another level of Stairstepper hell, ha!

Hi again Karen,
Re the Stairmaster — here’s a tip my personal trainer gave me. You get a stepper (like from step class) and put three rungs on each side. Hold a medium-size weight in each hand (5 to 10 lbs, depending on what you’re used to). Step on and and off the stepper while holding the weights, BUT when you step off, step off and bend one knee downwards while moving your arms down too. If you do this slowly and with control (alternating legs) it is really hard, but you get less tired than with the Stairmaster and your legs get really toned because you’re working the same leg muscles.
Sorry to clutter the board with non-makeup stuff, but I always like to share and receive exercise tips :).
