My choice for today is C!! I had a horrible day today that isn’t really worth talking about in great detail; however I will share my coping methods with you.
Why is it that some people go out of their way to be jerks (I would normally use another word)? Over the years I have dealt with a wide range of jerks both in my personal and professional life. Why do people try to demoralize you?

1. Often times it is the other person that is inferior
2. Some people have ego’s the size of Texas
3. Unfortunately, some people get their kicks from watching you sweat
4. Who knows, who cares, and does it really matter?

The most important thing to remember in these situations is it doesn’t matter how hard you fall only how fast you rise!! How you rise is a matter of personal preference. I sulk for about 5 minutes, pray, spend money, eat, soak in a hot bath until I’m shriveled up, watch television, sleep, and remind myself that God has got this thing fixed!!
The next time you’re stressed out on the job, had an argument with your significant other, or just feeling down about life in general, treat yourself to a hot spa bath. Go purchase some bath salts ($5-$8), body scrub, and soak. Here are my personal favorites:
Kimono Rose Bath Salts by Thymes ($5.00) - this is my all-time favorite. You should get about 3 baths out of this one. If you live in Louisiana you can buy them at The Keeping Room. If you live somewhere else please visit Thymes (store locator). It is so worth it.
Coconut & White Tea Body Scrubs (The Body Shop $15.00). Of course you shouldn’t stop with just the scrub. Treat yourself to the coordinating soap and body butter, you deserve it. The Body Shop.
Incredible Spreadable Scrubs (ORIGIN $25-$30). I like ginger, and lavender&vanilla. You can find an ORIGIN counter at Dillard’s and Macy’s. Again, buy the matching crème for the full experience. Please visit Origins.

When given a choice, always buy the creams and body butters in a jar instead of lotion. Lotions are watered down and serve no purpose other than smelling good. Crèmes and butters not only smell good but they actually help your skin to retain moisture. It’s the winter time, moisturize!!
If you try one of my favorites, let me know what you think.
I’m going to leave you with this. The next time you have a bad day always remember that it is only one day, a day that you will NEVER repeat again in life!! Thank God for His grace and mercy, and the opportunity to start all over with another day.
Your favorite gal pal,
KC
