Things I’m Loving / 06

Happy almost weekend friends! I’m working 11 hour shifts both days, so I’m expecting the weekend will just fly by. I hope you’re luckier than me and have only fun things planned. I only have one week left doing inpatient hospital medicine until summer, which means my schedule is going to be a bit more relaxed for the next few months! It’s crazy to think that my first year of residency is winding down.

In other news, I just changed my running shoes for the first time since December! I usually try to change them every 300-400 miles so needless to say I was long overdue. I was starting to have knee pain and muscle tightness after my runs and I finally had that ‘aha’ moment that it had been too long. One trick I’ve found to make sure I don’t go too long it to write the date I start a new pair on the footbed with a permanent marker. I’ve also heard of people rotating shoes to allow the footbed to recover in between runs, but I’ve never done that.  How often do you buy new workout shoes?

 

Here are some other things I’m loving from around the web!

There’s a new record in girl scout cookie sales.

I am making these for my next party.

Meanwhile I won’t be waiting for my next party to make these. Nom.

These are the best-looking chocolate chip cookies I have ever seen – and they are vegan and gluten free!

What are the chance if I try this updo it will look this lovely?

One of the best craigslist dresser makeovers I have ever seen.

This petal explosion is a definite day-brightener.
