Merry Christmas!

I am doing exactly what I should be doing today - resting! Resting in pretty much every sense of the word. My face is taking a rest from makeup, my body a break from the gym, my brain....well ok my brain isn't really resting - but it's not running on high speed like usual - so I'm purposefully taking a break from doing too much work.

This is exactly what I should be doing, need to do. Santa came and the present under my tree was 8 hours of sleep after weeks of napping my way through life (Insomnia and work had me going going going). Then after a wonderful cheat breakfast of Trader Joe's Greek Yogurt and some berries and granola from Whole Foods, I took another nap! My eyes were so heavy and if felt so great to let them close and simply fall asleep.  I have some sugar cookies (homemade of course) left over from client presents for me today and later I will make myself baked ziti for one with garlic bread (using ground bison for the meat, a heart healthy pasta and garlic bread from Whole Foods). This is my last Big Cheat Day. It's been over two weeks since my last cheat meal - in the off season I get about one a week but I extended my last completely clean time period to accommodate for the holiday - the holidays are easier when you can have what everyone else is having haha. Though, with the exception of the cookies, my cheat meals are still on the healthy side, especially since they are homemade and I can control the ingredients for the most part.

This is the calm before the storm though. I have some BIG things in store for 2012! A lot of irons in the fire and a lot to motivate me to push harder, to work harder, and to be better. Competition schedule is starting to line up and preseason starts very soon. I'm hoping to take my personal training to the next level and am re-focosing on my acting goals to make some headway there!

I'm very excited for the things to come!

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!
