Lil Miss : Recommends

I just came back in my room after taking a deliciously refreshing shower. It was a very long shower! I love long showers on the weekends. Actually, I love long showers every day of the week! After I got out of the shower my mom even put lotion all over my back. I suffer from eczema and if I don’t put a lot of moisturizers all over my body I’ll be itching all day long. That gets pretty annoying. Especially in the Winter when it’s cold out. Like most people my skin tends to be dryer during the Winter and having eczema only makes matters worse.

I still haven’t found a great dry skin lotion. Some lotions are good but they dry me out as the day goes on. Sometimes it looks as if I never even put lotion on to begin with. The thing that I hate most about lotion for dry skin is the smell. They usually stink. Can’t they make lotion that smells of Flowering Japanese Magnolia trees? That would smell great!

Oh man, my back is really killing me right now. I’m sitting at my desk doing some work and my back is in so much pain. Yikes. I haven’t really been doing work for very long so that’s not even the source of the back pain. My problem is that I made the mistake of sitting up at my desk all day watching videos online and now that I actually have to sit at my desk to work my back hurts. I always do that! I love to watch videos on my computer, but sitting here instead of in my bed is a really bad habit that I need to break.

If I had a comfortable desk chair that offered support for my back it wouldn’t be so bad but I don’t. So I’m basically sitting here for hours slumped over watching movies. Now my back is killing me. I wish I had the space in my bedroom for home theater seating. Maybe a reclining chair for when I’m watching videos? That would be so much better! I think I’ll stretch and rest my back for a while.

I’m not sure whether or not you guys remember me blogging about my leaky kitchen faucet a while back, but I’m happy to report that it’s been fixed! Actually it’s been replaced. We got rid of the old faucet and replaced it with a pretty spiffy new one. At first I wasn’t really a big fan of the new faucet because it’s kind of fancy, but it’s definitely grown on me. All of my life I’ve used the kind of faucets that have the separate hot and cold handles, but the one that we have now only has one handle for both the hot and cold water. That definitely took some getting used to.

I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve been burnt because the water was further to the left than I anticipated. Now that I’ve gotten a hang of this faucet I love it! It’s probably one of the best kitchen faucets we’ve ever had. With that said, if we could keep this design but go back to the other style I’d jump at the chance!

Today has been a pretty boring day. It’s late Saturday night (technically it’s Sunday since it’s 1:30a) and I’m still awake. I took a nap earlier in the day so I’ll probably be up for a while longer. I’m so bored. I really need to find more interesting things to do while I’m online. I was just watching videos a while ago. It’s so amazing to me that you can find almost anything online to watch. Sometimes when I miss my favorite shows I’m not even disappointed because you can watch them online.

I love that a lot of networks offer replays of shows online. They usually wait a few days after the original air date but it’s still pretty convenient. In most cases the view is just as good as it is on television. I love that! I can’t tell you how annoying it is to try to watch a show online only to realize that the sound and picture quality is horrible. Can’t they afford good sound and video cards? LOL I guess beggars can’t be choosers though!
