Tonight, I had a much needed girls night out and got to try something new. Some friends and I went to Vino Van Gogh (http://www.vinogogh.com/), a create your own painting party. Vino Van Gogh brings the painting party to you at a local restaurant, as opposed to a studio. It was so fun! We picked a Paris in the Springtime painting (this Francophile was in seventh heaven!) and while my painting didn't turn out nearly as good as the instructor's or the sample, I don't think it's too bad for my first masterpiece. I tried to channel my inner Bob Ross to paint happy little trees and flowers. Side note: I miss watching Bob's show; he always made painting seem so easy. Painting was really relaxing and a night out with friends and a (large) glass of Pinot Grigio were much needed!
I was able to go to the Rec Center at work to get in a 20 minute bike ride on the recumbent bicycle before our class. It was too hot to workout outside, unfortunately. I really enjoy the recumbent bike, but I don't feel like it gives me the best workout. I barely broke a sweat and my arms didn't do much of anything. I didn't really feel the burn, but I guess it was better than doing nothing. Not by much, though. I think a good elliptical workout is in order for tomorrow!
