Facial

The perks about working at a Spa, is that you get free or deeply discounted treatments.

This past thursday while at work, one of my "leads" asked, "have you received any treatments yet?" Me: "no." Her: "well, we need to get you in on them soon, so you know what you are talking about! (when 'selling' it to the guests)"

Next thing I know, I'm on the reservations system for two hours later. Yep- I got a facial for free ($162 value. I know, crazy expensive, right?) and pretty much got paid to get it too, because it was while I was clocked in at work!

And let me tell you, it was fantastic. It even came with a little foot and hand treatment as well. It was sooo relaxing. I had never had a facial before so I have nothing to compare it to, but regardless, it was very nice.

Supposedly, I have 3 more free treatments to partake of, at least one of them being a massage.

It didn't take much for me to be content with this job.

Fur Ball

Look at that little {big?} furry ball of cuteness. Doesn't that just make you want to have a groundhog of your own? Definitely

Well, that cute little Punxsutawney Phil of ours 'told' us today that we will have another 6 weeks of winter.

Being a Phoenix resident, that's great news! We'll take the cooler weather as long as we can.

Something else great that happened, is that I pretty much got paid to get a facial at work today. I feel so relaxed even just saying those words.

More details on that later.

Does "too sweet" exist?

...I didn't think it did, but making these Cookie Dough Truffles yesterday proved me wrong. They are good, but extremely sugary and rich. I'm going to have to get rid of most of them at work or something.

I guess I'll just go back to eating a few spoon fulls of raw cookie dough while making cookies.

On a healthy side note, today I've eaten healthy and enjoyed it. A part of that included tonight, I had some cut up baked yams with olive oil and some cinnamon. Mmmm.

Starting over and 90s songs.

Remember when I started this challenge? Well, yeah, I failed. I got to the middle of 4 weeks, and either A. would forget to do it B. not want to do it when I remembered it.

So, I'm going to brush myself off and try again {enter 90s hip -hop song here}, but this time I'm going to try the Squat Challenge instead. I get bored easily with things, especially when it comes to fitness so I wanted to try something different. Maybe I'll go back to the push ups, but for now I'm happy with this.

I can do it, if I put my back into it.
{I hope you caught that one too}

They say, "the way to a man's heart, is through his stomach."

Well, in this respect, I guess you can say I'm a man then, because my co-workers definitely won me over today.

I'm easy to please.

Nothing like some delicious homemade guac.

Parks and Recreation

One of our favorite shows right now, is Parks and Recreation. The first time I saw an episode or two a couple of years ago, I wasn't sold. Now, it has be laughing out loud just about, if not every episode.

Well, tonight I'm vegging and decluttering my mind while waiting for when I have to pick up Wolfgang from work. So what am I doing? Watching Parks and Rec bloopers on youtube, and laughing by myself.

Sometimes, I have this unrealistic idea that I would be completely content with my life, if I were an actress in a comedy TV show. They just look like they have way too much fun all the time.
