Body Time ›Daily Routine

messy week, small reset

Didn’t do much for about a week, shift flipped again and I kept getting home at weird hours, so tonight I finally did the whole routine instead of the two-minute version, felt good to just finish it!

Rinse-free cleanser first since plain water leaves my skin tight, then the ointment on the spot behind my knee, then waited before anything else.

Packed another box for the move too, found a couple of half-used lotions I forgot about, tossed the older ones, kept the newer.

Knee spot’s calmer than last week, still a little raised but not weeping. Neck’s bothering me more now, probably the screen.

Trying not to skip again even on the 11pm nights.

    That two-minute version to full routine gap is so real, my shifts keep getting rearranged too and some nights the rinse-free cleanser is genuinely the only thing that happens before I’m out. How long has the knee spot been sitting in that raised-but-not-weeping stage, is this the first time it’s calmed down this much or has it done this before and come back later.

    It’s been going on since before the move packing started, so a while now. Mine calms fast if I keep up the ointment but flares back quick if I skip a night, does yours react the same way to skipped nights?

    Thanks for relating, helps knowing I’m not alone on the messy weeks!
