up late

I'm up pretty late these days.

Mostly trying to get more done, but some times just watching the rebroadcast of the olympics or getting lost online. It's bad. I know.

Tonight it was cleaning.

Today I managed to clean every room in the house, but I left the kitchen for last. (Because it's my least favorite. I hate how quickly and easily it tends to get messy again!) It got put off so long, I didn't start cleaning it till 11pm. Not the best idea, but at least I got it done. And tomorrow when we get up I know I'll appreciate having it clean.

Even when I stay up this late I try to take a shower before going to bed.

I use to think I couldn't night shower because my hair looks kinda crazy the next morning, (big and wavy- sounds cute but let me assure you it's not!) and my cheap straightener never could tame it.

But last year I finally invested in a CHI straightener.

This amazing straightener has made it possible to take my wild morning hair and straighten it into something beautiful. And showering at night saves me a lot of time the next morning. Now all I have to do is straighten my hair and put on my makeup. I hardly ever need to blow dry any more (which I love because blow drying it took so long and makes my thick hair even thicker!)

I also like night showering because I don't feel rushed, and it never has to get put off because something comes up or I run out of time in the morning. It seemed like when I would shower in the morning I would often only end up getting a shower every other day! (embarrassing but true.) Ever since I switched to night showering I've actually gotten a shower every day. (and don't have to worry about what the kids are doing) Plus night showering is a great way to relax at the end of the day.

Well it's getting later and later. I better go hop in the shower and get to bed.

You never know when this baby will decide to show.

I gotta get SOME sleep!
