Not that anyone asked, but I think I cracked the code on a nice little self-care routine to ease back into work after a glorious 10 days off. This may become my new Sunday routine because I need a way to shake off the Sunday night blues.
- Quick (2 miles) run outside: I have a race in a few days and this is part of the training plan, so I’ll adjust my mileage as needed. And hopefully sleep better.
- Face mask: winter is murder on my skin so I’m doing everything I can to keep it happy. Plus I look insane and like to startle Ed.
- Wash makeup brushes: in addition to being a key piece in not being gross, this will also keep my skin looking good. Win-win.
- Deep condition hair and cuticles: OK, clearly a big part of this routine is appearance-based but it makes me feel better, OK?
- Brooklyn 99 and The State marathons on Hulu: Self-explanatory if you know me at all.
Feel free to adapt any of these for your own purposes. Happy New Year! Take time to take care of yourself.
Is This Thing On? 
You could avoid all this by simply growing a beard. *The more you know!
I’m Portuguese and Italian so if I skip a threading appointment I could probably make this happen by end of the month. Good tip!
Tom and Donna! My faves!
