let her sleep for when she wakes she will move mountains

I’ve had trouble getting to sleep for the longest time. Sometimes my brain is just on overload and I’m thinking about all the things I have to do, replaying things I have done and coming up with great ideas for things I want to do. I usually get around four hours of sleep a night, although occasionally my internal monologue goes something like this…

“If I go to bed now, I’ll get eight hours of sleep.
         If I fell asleep now I’d get six hours sleep. Six hours is reasonable…
   … okay, now I have five hours …
                         … four hours ….
           … this is ridiculous, can I even function on two and a half hours of sleep?
         Ugh, an hour until I have to get up. Should I just get up now?
                                                                                    … *snoring*”

Who enjoys exercise?

Oh man, what have I done? I’ve become one of those people who actually enjoys exercise! Don’t get me wrong, dragging myself out of bed before 6am so that I can pull on my walking shoes is not my idea of fun at all, but as part of my knee rehab I have to walk to build up strength, so it’s gotta be done. Not to mention those endorphins, holy moly – that makes getting up early so worth it!

Cruelty Free SAFE Shopper App

When I decided to go cruelty free with my cosmetics this year, one of the issues I faced was not knowing what was cruelty free and what wasn’t. There are a number of companies that claim to be cruelty free, but sell their products in China, where animal testing is mandatory (you can read about that here)! So, how do you figure out who you can trust?
