So I woke up yesterday morning not being able to bend over and tie my shoes. At some point in the night, I swear someone came in my room and kicked me square in the back, because it hurt so bad. What in the holy heaven did I do to my back? Yeah, still do not have an answer for you.
I begged and I pleaded with my kids to rub my back… and well
for those with pre-schoolers, you know what kind of back rub you get.. haha..
bless their little hearts! They do get
an “A” for the effort! But I still
didn’t have any relief. So I thought
about what I would really help me. My
first thought… A hot bath..check!
Slipped into a hot bath… glass of wine… check! Then I had the idea that I could stretch my
hamstrings while I was in the tub and
my muscles were warm from the hot water.
Perfect! When I got out, I felt
about 75% better and then put my big fuzzy robe on and then I was 100%.
It’s amazing how something so simple could improve your
outlook on the day.
Now I know that this is totally off topic, but I have to give a shout out to two new products that I’ve tried. One is from Aveeno. It’s their Anti-Fatigue eye treatmentserum. I love this stuff. I bought it on a whim because I was almost out of my Smashbox Photo Op. This serum is a 2 in 1. It helps take away the puffiness that the late nights leave behind and then brightens under the eye. SWEET!
The other one is from Josie Maran. I was standing in line at Sephora and I have
to admit I’m always tempted by those little sample sizes they have by the
registers. This time I’m glad I made the
leap. I tried her Argan DailyMoisterizer with SPF40 in it. It’s a
little sticky at first, but then feels so light on my face. Even better is it’s scent. I’m very sensitive when it comes to putting
product on my face. If I can’t stand the
smell…it’s gone. Even if it is the
miracle cure… sorry Charlie, come back when you smell better!
So until next week, have a great weekend!
Cheers-
