Quick Update

So today wash day, talk about that tomorrow. But I did manage to lose another pound this week bringing me back to my start weight of 120lbs. Wouldn't it be something if I could actually see a number lower then 120. Shocked

That's been like 3+ years. So in spite of eating black forest cake for three days I still managed to drop weight. Looks like my exercise routine is working. Cool

So I can have my cake and eat it too. Grin

Sorry just had to do it. Wink

Wash Day WTF?

So yesterday I figured I'd try something different for my pre shampoo treatment. I to the usual concoction of BBAB conditioner and JO I added some SAO, AKO, my KO dry hair oil, some AVG and rosewater. Mixing it together it came out thicker then it usually does. A good sign I thought. Unfortunately I had to use a cool blowfryer last night again. But this time my hair came out very dry, last week I used a blowfryer with the usual pre shampoo mix and my hair was fine. Huh

Weird thicker mixture dryer hair. Whatever not doing that anymore. So had front of hair pulled back with small ponytails to hold up barrettes. However they annoyed me because they weren't staying so I took them out. As I was combing my hair out I realized how dry it actually was. Tongue

I suspect I also didn't use enough oil today. So I put it in a side braid and left it.

Wash Day

So yet another wash day dilemma. I acquired greasy roots before I shampooed. Huh

The air's drier and yet my roots are greasier? Huh

And I just did a clarifying day what two-three weeks ago. Huh

Bleh I wonder what that's about. Anyway back to the typical pre shampoo mixture. Hair seems to like it a bit better as long as it's followed with ABS and ample dry oiling. Roll Eyes

It's supposed to be fabulous here on Friday, sunny and in the mid 60's. Cool

Autumn's last hurray I suppose. Then onto the snow! Grin

Yes well after that day where it was so raw that I thought my bones had frozen Shocked

I'll take a brief bout with the 60's.

It's only November 5th and already radio and television stations are playing Christmas carols and are running holiday ads. Shocked

And they wonder why by the time December actually rolls around that I'm practically sick of Christmas already. Angry

There is such a thing as overkill people.

Omg, I know! I heard a holiday radio commercial on Halloween, for crying out loud, and I was like, already with this? Really?! Shameless greed, man. Angry

Your scalp may be trying to compensate for the dry weather by producing more oil. Just a guess. Huh

And yeah, keep bragging, my spoiled little east coaster, but you'd better take lots of pix when the snow arrives. Wink

I have some from earlier in the year, but I have yet to get them developed. Roll Eyes

I think I even have one picture left to take on that roll... Grin

But I'll see what I can do.

I hope it's exactly what I suspect it is and that next week it will be down again. I wonder if I gained 3lbs instead of 2? Just being optimistic.

That about sums it up. Tongue

So yesterday was wash day, nothing out of the ordinary there. It was more humid today so I needed more oil and BBAB to fight frizzies. Wore hair in a braid that I looped around up the back of my head and clipped in place.

Bought some makeup from Ulta. They had a makeup train case with $195 worth of make up for $20 with a 20% off coupon. Cool

Good deal. Also got my dog some giant loofah toys. They're 2ft long! Shocked

Almost as big as he is. He's certainly going to have a Merry Christmas.

Wrapped up my long shopping day with some spice cookies and hot chocolate. Smiley

Ahh.

Weekend Con't

Angel: Cool

Uh huh, it does get better when you do it two days in a row. Wink

Today after minimal oil and BABB just to make hair a bit more manageable. I wore my hair in a flipped ponytail with the end braided and accented with two sterling silver and faux pearl hair combs. Good style for church Sundays with wind or foul weather. We had the former a bit.

Afterwards I bought outdoor boots for going out in the yard. And a cute pair of suede/faux shearling boots for when it gets cold. They were on sale. Cool

Yes another good day with a chocolate chip muffin lunch. More sweet deals and meals. Cheesy

Yes it rhymes I know. "don't spear me!" Cheesy

These sort of moments are rare indeed. You usually get one or the other but not usually both. So I shall desperately cling to my simultaneous consumerism and vanity while it lasts.
