Fast Track & Spartacus 2.0 - Wk 5, Day 3, Wed, 4-Apr-2012

DORIS' DAILY SUMMARY/LEARNINGS: 

• BP:  112/65, 66 bpm - HRs a bit too high, but I didn't sleep well last night.  It took me a long time to fall asleep and once I was asleep, I kept waking up.  That's a sign of overtraining for me, as I had no thoughts or worries.
• Did a lot of reflecting, watching YT videos on injuries, strengthening muscles/joints, as well as unpaid writing.
• Got my kids' hair cut today at a salon that specializes in black hair.  My kids are half black and half Chinese.  My hair is not typical Chinese, as it's wavy.  Ellen, the woman that did my daughter's hair, is a miracle worker.  She got my daughter's hair as smooth as my hair, kept it long and cut it in long layers.  My daughter LOVES her hair.  Thankfully I brought my camera that also takes video.  So, I got to make several instructional videos to help me as I work on my daughter's hair in the future.  There are 2 main tools I now need - a nozzle for my hairdryer, and a flat iron set (Bio Ionic Freestyle is what she used).  We got some other things for her that she'll need to help her maintain her hair - like a skull cap, scarves, clips, combs.  I only bought one hair product.  I really liked Ellen as she didn't put all sorts of chemicals in my daughter's hair to get an incredible look.  My son is happy with his haircut, too.
• Wanted to take a nap, but by the time I actually wanted to, there was no time.

SMARTER GOAL:  Enjoy my day of no exercise.
