The Garmin Forerunner 405CX that my mom bought me for my birthday arrived late last week. I haven’t had a chance to test it out yet, but I have gone through and figured out all of the settings. I’m hoping to go for a nice, long run on Sunday. It will be a slower paced run, since I have a field hockey game on Saturday, but I’m hoping to run 5-7km.
Speaking of birthday presents, my sister’s present came in the mail for me as well. She asked what I wanted, and I mentioned that I wanted some speakers for my Macbook Pro, since the built-in speakers in laptops suck (and my computer is the source of music for our house).
So she ended up getting me the Logitech Lapdesk N700 (Amazon link) – which is perfect because not only is it a lapdesk, but it has speakers and a cooling fan – all plugged in by USB cable into the MBP. It was exactly what I was looking for, and I am so excited! Perfect for lying on the bed and writing, or on the couch. I knew that she was ordering speakers for me, so I offered up $20 worth of Amazon gift cards that I had earned via Swagbucks. I actually just earned another $20 worth of Amazon gift cards through Swagbucks, so I’m hoping to use to help by Christmas presents this year. :)
