Rough Start

Today, has not gotten off to the best start.  The cat puked on my bedroom floor sometime around 6 am, I locked myself out of the house and had to break back in, there was an accident on the way to work making me 20 minutes late, I almost fell down the stairs, and to top it all off my head hurts so bad it’s making me nauseous.  I didn’t even drink last night!  Suck it Tuesday.

Ugh, anyway, I got right back into my regular routine yesterday with a lunch time workout.  45 minutes on the elliptical followed by 1 mile on the treadmill at about 8:30 pace.  After work I actually surprised myself by running the errands I needed to run. $63 shelled out at the dry cleaners for two pairs of pants I had taken in and a sweater that needed stitching, and stocking up on groceries.  Lots of frozen veggies, sweet potatoes, and chicken in my diet for the next 11 days.  Oh and did I mention I’m not drinking?  I suspect I’ll be quite pleasant to be around.

I also took full advantage of Cyber Monday yesterday, and knocked out almost all of my Christmas shopping.  My mom is the only person left on my list, and I plan on taking care of her sometime today.  I scored some awesome deals, like 30% off my entire order at one store and 25% off at another.  Love it.

When I was at my mom’s house this past weekend, I discovered and fell in love with my sister’s curling wand.  My girls Amy and Jess had professed their love for them before, but I’d never had the chance to use on.  Well after one video tutorial, and 5 minutes, I was hooked.  Mostly because it made my hair look like this:

Oh, hello beautiful curls that last without hair spray and still look awesome after sleeping.

And again.  I’m obsessed, and I tried to steal my sisters but she was not having it.  I also now know how Taylor Swift does her hair, because that is what my curls looked like right after I was done.  So yeah, I don’t know what it is about the curling wand, but it’s magic.

Alright, I’m off to hunt down some Advil and pray this headache goes away.  Peace.
