I've got into a horrible pattern of broken sleep when I have work the next day. I wake 4 - 6 times every night, usually after dreaming that my alarm is going off, imagine doing this 6 times before your alarm actually goes off... it's like groundhog day. I've monitored this for the past three weeks and I sleep just fine when I don't have work the following day so I'm obviously allergic to my current job. I had a gorgeous 10 whole hours last night which surely illustrates my point?
I've really cranked up the water consumption this week. I've been taking a 2 litre bottle of fizzy water to work with me for most of the week and the top two thirds of my face look tons better already! Skin is clearer, plumper and brighter. Not bad for just a few days and hopefully, the last third will follow suit pretty sharpish. Of course the only drawback is that you need to spend a penny much more often. The team that has the dubious honour of being situated near the restrooms must think I have a bladder the size of a raisin and I'm desperate to explain the increased water consumption to them. For the time being, they'll just have to talk about me... they shouldn't be counting anyway.
I was walking through a corridor on Wednesday with a colleague when she asked if another person should be with us, I looked back to see if the other person was following and promptly walked into a pillar! (This is the pillar that I've walked past successfully for the past four years.) Luckily, I only hurt my arm and I now have a ping pong ball sized bump and a complimentary bruise. Isn't watching where you're walking something we learn as kids? I was obviously over due for a reminder.
I watched "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" this week, and I forgot how good it was. 90 minutes of lovely escapism and I really enjoyed it. I'm toying with the idea of going to see "Bridesmaids." I haven't read any reviews yet, it sounds like it should be good and it's written by a woman rather than a man trying to think like a woman, but I hope it's not trying to be a female version of "The Hangover" as that just wouldn't work.
I've just read about Carmen Dell'Orefice, at 80 years of age, this beautiful woman is still a working catwalk model! Can you believe it? She was blessed with great bone structure which is half the battle but it shows you that if you talk care of yourself, you can look good at any age!
Plies are completed nightly and are like a habit now, woo hoo! Still doing the arms with my water bottles and although I say so myself, they're looking toned and as a bonus, the shoulders are not bad either. I confess I didn't even watch the Tracy Anderson Butt and Thigh workout let alone completed it but... it is on the list for the weekend, possibly even this afternoon.
Caught a bit of "10 Years Younger US" again this morning. They gave the victim fillers to add "youthful plumpness" to her cheekbones and to wipe out the laughter lines she had between nose and mouth. At her big reveal, she still had huge lumps of filler situated on top of her cheekbones as they hadn't had time to spread out! There is something to be said for water, salmon and good fats. I think I'll take my chances on the latter but you know what? Laughter lines show the world you like to laugh.
After the rain early this morning, we now have sunshine! Jogged for 30 minutes this morning and it'll be arms and plies later. Happy Friday to you although you may well be in bed now so Happy Saturday instead! x
