I’m only 23, so honestly I’m not exactly educated when it comes to anti wrinkle serum, but I really hope that I don’t have to be at any point in my life. I know that people age and become old, and in my opinion I think that makes people beautiful. You get wrinkles because you have aged, learned, and lived life. Every scar is a sign of a victorious battle. I have a huge red scar going across my belly, along with some ugly ass stretch marks, but when I see them, I think of how I carried my daughter in my stomach for as long as I could. And even though it wasn’t long enough, she is alive, well and healthy. And also absolutely adorable. Like seriously the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.

If there’s anything I know about my body, it’s that I need to take better care of it. I have been dying to get a treadmill after having little one, but spending such a large amount of money really bothered me, so I didn’t exactly look into purchasing one. However, we were recently given a treadmill and workout gym system for free so I feel like it fell into our lap, I could not be more excited. The only problem is that I think I may need shoes meant for running or an actual joint supplement. I walked two miles this week and the next day my knees were absolutely killing me. I know that skate board shoes are not meant to walk/run in, so I’m going to try a pair of running shoes before I start taking supplements.

I am SO SO SO glad it is Friday!! This week work has been absolutely treacherous. Four times a year we produce a magazine full of industry related mumbo-jumbo that I honestly don’t know much about, other than the fact that it is painful. We have so much to do on a normal day that it is hard for anyone to fit in extra work making our deadlines impossible to meet without working a million hours. Lets just say that my dark eye circles have been on full blast this week when normally I don’t even notice them.

Thankfully there was lots of help this week and we met our deadline, but sometimes, especially now that I have a baby that I miss 24/7… I just want to crawl in a hole and cry rather than work a 60 hour week.

In my experience, the best acne pill has been the birth control pill. I don’t know if all birth control pills help clear up acne, but I know that many do and sometimes women are prescribed the pill specifically to clear up their acne. I don’t really have much acne anymore, but when I was younger and first started Lo-Ovral, it cleared it right up.

I know I mention it a lot, but birth control pills really are a miracle medication. There are often reverse side effects, such as the time I was on Yaz, I went totally crazy, but once you find the right one for you… it is really a blessing to have!
