Lulu Finds and Links I Love This Week

 

My hormones and I are feeling much better today thank you. In fact, a good venting was all they really seemed to need yesterday as after we spoke, I headed out for a terrific run.

Somewhere in the fourth mile I decided the run was terrific simply because I hadn’t noticed what music was playing in my ear.

Do you know what I mean? Like all of a sudden you wake up and realize what you are listening to, as if you had been asleep or in this case, so tuned into your run that you weren’t at all tuned in to what was blasting in your ears?

I can’t say my music has been right these days though. I don’t know, I go through phases where I love my playlist and then have days where I constantly hit shuffle even when I already have the music set to shuffle.

Part of me keeps considering a run without music at all. I don’t know that I can do it but maybe I will try for a bit tomorrow morning.

Anyway, lots of tids and bits to share with you today. Anyone remember the movie The Other Sister when they ate tids and bits for free? No? Only I remember random movies and random scenes like this?

It’s insane to me that we are over half way through the month of April.

Next Saturday morning (April 26th) is the 20th Parkinson’s Unity Walk in Central Park. Click here to register and learn more. 100% of donations go to Parkinson’s disease research.

It doesn’t feel as though it is almost May because suddenly the weather has reverted back to winter-like temperatures where I am running in four layers again.

I saw this new shirt at Lulu yesterday. I didn’t buy it but I think I really like it.

It’s called the Lightened Up Long Sleeve- the material was super light but seemed perfect for the current weather we are having and especially for those mornings where it should be warm out but isn’t quite warm out and you don’t want to be cold.

Maybe it will go on sale?

Oh, and please let me know if you have ever tried the Lulu underwear.

I didn’t buy them but the sales girl said she loves them and wears them even when not running. Nylon and spandex all of the time? I just don’t know.

I also don’t know how or when I found the time this week to surf the internet much but it seems that I did because I bookmarked a bunch of links I wanted to share with you this morning.
