The last year has been pretty good in terms of work as I focused on clients and ended up achieving almost 1 million dollars of sales! Our problematic employee was also finally eliminated last December so the last 6 months have really been some of the best I have experienced working at Birks! Even in the 6 months prior to that, I gained a confidence that ended working in our favour as it eventually pushed this crappy employee out. In general, confidence was a BIG thing this year and I have learned to say NO to a lot of things or at least stand up for myself more now that I know I’m almost un-fireable (now that I have dealt with how HR deals with problematic employees).
One thing I started focusing on a few months ago was my weight gain and metabolic slow down. I gained about 10lbs in December putting me at 130lbs which at 5’4 is well within normal parameters, but what is really bothering me is the fact that A LOT of my work clothes are not fitting! I hate having to mass buy clothing like this so I’ve been trying to make sure that I hit at least 10K steps a day at least 5 days a week and eating less processed food. Chocolate is my real weakness and I have realized that I cannot give that up in full! It’s just too good!
What should we expect on Cosmetic Proof? Well, it’s pretty evident that my blogging has slowed down and though my husband brought up that blogs will probably become non-existent now with the AI summaries being given whenever you Google, but I will continue to show up here for ME and for those of you who get nostalgic and want to read beauty blogs 🙂 In terms of frequency, I can honestly say that I am doing the best I can, but I don’t think I will ever be at the 20 posts/month that I once was. If I can do 10 posts, I am happy to hit those double digits!
Happy Long Weekend everyone (even though it’s Tuesday)!
