Pinch me I'm....German.

On Sunday my Brother and I will attempt to run a 5K!!

This will be my first run that I will be in. I'm really excited, except the fact that I am REALLY out of shape and haven't really ran for a few months...

I had fully planed to be in shape for this.

Then I got THE cold.

plus our road has been covered with ice for the past three months.

Having said this, I really am excited to run! it should be "fun", or so I keep trying to tell myself..

The other day my Brother reminded me to where green.

I love green! but after looking in my closet, I came to the startling discovery that don't really own anything green!

How could this happen???

So, I had to make something green A.S.A.P!!!

So, here it is! a Green Ear-warmer!
