I Always Get Through It

It's unlike me to not want to write, but I'm forcing myself to. I hate missing days. I actually had a really good day, so I'm not sure why I don't feel like writing. Maybe because I'm getting tired. Probable. I always do that to myself.

I actually got up and went to the gym. I really wanted to yesterday, but it just didn't happen. I didn't go too crazy, but I'm still fairly certain I'll be a little sore tomorrow. S Health tracks weight training (as well as my steps), and I wanted to make sure whatever caloric expenditure it clocked was accurate (I'm not sure if it over or underestimates my output, since it isn't factoring in heart rate). I'd rather it be underestimated than over. So, I did lift somewhat heavy. I also took shorter rests between sets, and did however many reps it took to reach failure.

Before I left for the gym I put a deep conditioner in my hair, then tied it up in a bun. I left it in for a good 4 hours, then rinsed it out when I got home. I used the new Shea Moisture Sacha Inchi masque I got at Ulta yesterday (I had rewards saved up, and all Shea Moisture is buy one get one 50% off), and I think I'm in love. My hair felt so good as I was rinsing it out, and the curl defining smoothie from the same line is equally heavenly. As I was diffusing, I got a little concerned that maybe there was a little too much protein in the smoothie (my hair felt slightly stiff and I thought I saw a little frizz. Common symptoms of too much protein in my hair), but as it dried more, it softened and the definition was off the chain! I actually got comments on how great my hair looked, and the smell is divine. I love finding great products for my hair... and I love getting them for next to nothing!

I had a heart to heart conversation with Christine tonight. I don't feel too much like going into all the details, but I feel slightly better about work life. My role in the store. Where I'm headed. My current position is going through some changes, and I'm hoping I like were it's going. I still struggle with wanting to get the hell out of retail, but the fact of the matter is, it's never as bad as I make it out to be in my head. And I always get through it. This year will be no different.
