Sometimes I'll buy something thinking, I HAVE TO HAVE IT... I'LL WEAR/USE  it ALL.THE.TIME. And then there's those items where I think, I don't really want it, but for this price, I should just buy it. Surprisingly, whatever it is I think I HAVE to have, I usually get rid of it. But the items that I don't think much of, I hang on to forever. Weird.

Going back now 7 years ago. I bought this yoga mat before I left for college. It must have been really cheap. I think it's been used 5 times since then. But I've never gotten rid of it because I knew there would come a day where I would want to brush off the dust and bust out a yoga mat. I carefully maneuvered my way through the maze in storage closet and found it in the very back. I'm surprised the mat wasn't in the original packaging still.

Until it cools off enough to go outside running, this yoga mat will suffice for some workouts. Oh, and there's that half marathon I signed up for in 2 months. The last one I did was when I was 21 weeks pregnant. I'm hoping this one will have less port-a-potty visits since I don't have a baby pounding on my bladder. :)
