Finally A Day OFF!

I am really starting to appreciate my 12 hour shifts and three days off I use to have back in the states. Here we work 6 days a week with one day off.  And let me tell you that day goes fast. I usually have Sundays off but they were holding a class for some people so I worked Sunday and had off Monday.  I tried to do everything too and my lil day off. I worked out with my trainer, went to get my hair touched up. The salon here is off the hook, its amazing how Kuwait is really a transient work place for many people around the world. For example the ladies that worked in the salon. Most of them had came here from Ethiopia (shout out to Chrissy!!) and Camroon Nigeria. By the way Ethiopian woman are beautiful I was just admiring their skin and bone structure and eyes very distinctive.  So i digress. But they leave their families to work here. So for 50 dollars they took the front section of my braids out, washed and conditioned my entire head, massaged my scalp, blew it dry, rebraided the front and then dipped and crinkled it all over in two hours! I was like wow that is great. Then I went to another beauty shop that was owned by people of asian decent ( i don't want to offend but I can't tell the difference between chinese, Vietnamese, korean or  what so I will categorize by using of asian decent)  and they do massages, pedicures, manicures, eyebrows, and facials. So I got my eyebrows down and they don't use was they do the threading technique which was interesting I did get it down in maryland before (thanks Trina)  and it hurt like hell but it wasn't so bad this time. I researched it a little bit and they said it is better than waxing because waxing leads to less elasticity around your eye area and will give you "crows feet" and saggy eye leads.  I didn't venture out and get my feet done because we take care of a lot of people with ingrown toe nails and cellulitis. I want to by my own supplies and take them there first before  I venture out on that. Then I went to the pool and when the water was as hot as it was outside and it felt like I was taking a warm bath I went back to my area and called myself taking a nap which lead to me being up at 0300 my time 2000 your time. So anyway I feel good about getting out doing me on my day off.
