Moody Style: Ugh, Ouch…Pesky Mosquitos

I hope that everyone is enjoying the rest of the weekend.  I’m so happy that I had the chance to really relax over the past two days. Here’s a quick recap of my weekend.  Yesterday morning, I ran in a 5k with some friends.  I’ll post about the race and my results a little later.  I also took a hip-hop class later that morning for some extra cardio.  I know I’m a little crazy.  Later in the evening, I met up with a friend of mine at a great restaurant near the beach.  Today, I lounged around and I watched TV most of the day.  I also spent most of today trying to avoid scratching over 15 mosquito bites.  Stupid mosquitos…these bites are very itchy.  Unfortunately last night, we sat outside on the patio for dinner and the mosquitos decided to have their own feast on me.  The weird thing is that I only felt a couple of bites throughout the night.  I had no idea that there were so many bites all over my body until this afternoon.  I don’t know about you, but I think that the mosquitos are really out of control this year.  I can’t ever recall having this many bites all at one time.  I’m really kicking myself now for not using any insect repellant before heading out.  I thought that I was going to be safe outdoors because of the sea breeze, but I was sadly mistaken. Have any of you had any problems, more than usual, with mosquitos this summer?  What’s your favorite insect repellant? Let me know in the comments.

Fresh Picks to Follow – iPhone Cases


I’ve been looking for a new iPhone case for the past couple of weeks, but I can’t make a decision.  I currently have an Incase cover for my iPhone and I love it; however, I’ve had it for over a year and I thought I would get something a little more colorful.  I just haven’t figured out what brand I want and how much I want to spend.  It’s amazing how expensive some of these cases are especially the designer brands.  I love how some of them look, but realistically I probably won’t pay any more than $50.00 for a new case. My top three favorites right now are the OtterBox, the Incase, the Speck pictured below.  For this week’s Fresh Pick to Follow, here are my top 10 iPhone cases that I’ve been checking out lately.  What kind of case do you have for your iPhone? What’s your favorite part about it? Let me know in the comments!
