pedicure

so i went for my pedicure yesterday. it wasn't what i hoped it to be. it was very rushed and it wasn't relaxing at all. it wasn't special and i could do it at home with exactly the same result. bah! i know for the next time. thankfully, it only cost me only £20 even though i booked the £36 one. apparently i didn't need the extra things that were included in the more expensive one, like removing hard skin because i didn't have any. so, 20 quid of my reward money gone and i don't even feel indulged. bollocks!

i really couldn't be bothered going to the gym yesterday, i was tired and didn't feel very athletic. but i went and i did 30 minutes on the treadmill alternating 2.5 min walk and 2.5 min run. so all in all, i ran for 15 minutes. i know it's not 15 minutes without stopping, but it's still impressive considering i found it really hard to do 4 min walk 1 min run not so long ago. i had to talk to myself constantly, encouraging and saying 'you ran for 10 minutes solid on monday so you sure can run for two and half minutes now!' i forgot to take my wristband again so i had sweat in my eyes. have. to. remember. my. wristbands. next. time.

mark managed to get home in time to take me to my aqua aerobics class today so i had no choice but to go ;) it was very good, it was a different lady doing it this time and she was good. it was a combination of toning and cardio and we were doing something new all the time so i was never bored.

it's the last day of the 'no chocolate or ice cream' week so i'm looking forward to eating chocolate and ice cream again. however, there's a catch - i can have two treats only next week. why do i choose to punish myself so? ;)
