Brainbreak or Brainstorrrrm

Being back at work and having to wake up at 5/5:30 a.m. everyday has finally caught up to me. I’m the person who regularly got to sleep in until 7:30 a.m. on the weekdays because I don’t have to be at work until 9:30 a.m. So this early morning business is killing me! It’s definitely my choice to get up that early. I could sleep in a bit more, throw my hair up in a ponytail each day, forget the makeup and grab whatever I see first to wear. But we all know that isn’t me. I’m a southern girl and we like to look our best which does take time. Like I’ve said before on this blog, I feel my best when I am confident in how I look. Vain I know, but it’s true. If someone could just invent a 20 second full face of makeup applicator, my life would be complete. Not to mention I’d probably look even better because I could sleep longer, thus waking up each day looking well rested. But I’m getting away from my whole point of today’s post. And that is that I’m quite tired and in need of a brainbreak. I might have just invented the word brainbreak, sounds good to me. I’m allowing myself to say, “Hey brain, here’s your 15 minute union. You’ve done a lot of thinking today, just relax.”

And in order to allow my brain to relax, I like to watch funny youtube videos. My friend Sarah reminded me of this fab video that I haven’t seen in years. And now I'm watching it over and over again, forgetting about all of the responsibility that I have and just resting. Enjoy, you’ll thank me when it’s over.
