Nope, but I guess weather forecasters' inability to properly predict snowfall isn' t just limited to out here. Roll Eyes

Ish Cold

I failed to wash my hair on Tuesday due to a distraction caused by horse pull events at our state Farm Show. Good for my hair anyways to sit in extra natural oils. So yesterday I did a TWC with my new hydrating conditioner. Hair is showing a bit of improvement in the flyaway department which should be corrected with the additions of the matching shampoo and a new comb. Roll Eyes

Leave ins were ABS, SEM, KO, and BBAB.

It's been so friggen cold. Thursday night/Friday morning we got down to 3° and our high was 17°. Last night we got down to -3° and managed to get up to 19°. I managed to get my hair into a french tuck which actually looks like a big mess. Tongue

Covered by my angora hat it's totally forgettable which was the point. Definitely a day for warm coats, fuzzy hats, boots, scarves, sweaters, and gloves. And lots of hot chocolate. All of which I wore and what I shall now consume. Thankfully there's a warm up coming by mid week that and that I don't live north of where I do, where they got down to -20° or better. Or in Maine where they got down to -50.° Shocked

Too cold for even this North Easter.

And how's your football team doing? I quit watching (and I use that term loosely) after ours lost miserably to the Steelers. Roll Eyes

Thermal underwear, no I'm not kidding. You need a second layer at that temp, and preferably as little exposed flesh as possible. Especially if there's a wind chill. Believe it or not there were still people walking around in just sweatshirts and I saw one kid in shorts. Huh

Some people just have no sense.

"Watching" most likely meant you flipped channels a half hour into it saw they were losing bad and stopped "watching" there. Grin

We're playing today. So we'll see we just might make the Super Bowl again, then I can be into more than just the commercials. Grin

Just kidding, the Super Bowl is usually a pretty good game. I've seen some exciting moments in my time. Then there have also been the games that were total snores. Roll Eyes

Yes, even this fan manages to get bored from time-to-time too. Wink

I'm not male so I'm not die hard. Grin

Thermals! I knew it. hehehe Wink

Believe it or not, it actually gets cold enough for them here in SoCal every so often.

And my dear, you give me way too much credit. Roll Eyes

Flipping channels would suggest that I'd been sitting idly in front of the tele for any given amount of time...which is unlikely for me. Wink

Actually, I think my parents had the game on and I walked in, watched long enough to predict the outcome, then left the room. The next day's headlines confirmed what I already knew.

My mistake. Roll Eyes

And yes they pretty much were doomed from the start of that game. As was our team who decided now was a good time not to show up. Roll Eyes

Around here it's about par. Roll Eyes

Oh well Super Bowl commercials are still fun. Grin

Yesterday I mixed up my own version of a Moisture Mist, that is the same line of my hair products. However I haven't been able to find a place that sells it so I improvised. I took the same scent hydrating conditioner I just bought dumped some into a spray bottle added water and I've probably something practically identical to what I can't find. I used it last night and this morning and it's cut back on the static from combing big time. It should work exceedingly better than my last at home leave in conditioner concoction which was made with a conditioner my hair didn't like and oils my hair didn't like. Perhaps I'll pawn my leftover KO onto my mother, who usually winds up with my castoffs anyways. Roll Eyes

My monthly measure and weigh in has me up a pound but my waist is the same. Huh

Whatever I'm more interested in keeping those inches the same then the pounds. And if anyone can actually tell the difference between 118 and 119lbs. They're certifiable anyways. Grin

Wash Day

So this wash day I tried something different that I found on here. Twas called C-COW-C. Now I've done both COW and CWC washes both with bad results. The COW just added a grease layer and the CWC did nothing. This, however, left my hair softer and not greasy. Happy less flyaway and dry hair. Leave ins were ABS, SEM, and MM. I think I'm getting the hang of this. Cheesy

Wash Day

So yesterday I did a TC-COW-C. Hair is soft and happy with flyaways under control. Leave ins were the usual ABS, SEM, and MM. Wore hair today in a flipped ponytail with braided tail. As it was windy and cold today. Tongue

Yesterday we made it to 50°. Figures I'm not going out until today and tomorrow, which will be even colder. Roll Eyes

Hair will probably be the same for tomorrow with the addition of an accent for church. Wee... Roll Eyes

Hat/cold weather hairstyles are growing annoying. Tongue

Wash Day

So yesterday was wash day. And it was time for a clarifying routine. So it was done with my new clarifying shampoo, that I finally got to use. Roll Eyes

DWV with another wash and conditioner. The usual leave ins of ABS SEM and MM. Hair's not complaining too much and is clipped up and out of my way.

Last night we got 4" of snow. Cool

Still paltry but I'll take it, except it switched over to sleet/freezing rain this morning and is now freezing rain/rain. Tongue

It never fails. Roll Eyes

Cold And Wash Day

Wash day was yesterday with a T-C-COW-C with my treatment being left in for over an hour. Hair was braided for under hat wearing as it was cold and windy... again. Tongue

Tomorrow will be the start of a two day warm up which is possibly being followed by a massive snowstorm. Shocked

*does happy dance* However as I, and Trisha know don't believe it 'till you see it, because these forecasters can't get anything right. Roll Eyes

Think snow everyone!

Wash Day and The Storm That Wasn't Roll Eyes

Yesterday was wash day. A, now, typical C-COW-C. Leave ins the same ol' same ABS, SEM, and MM. Will need to make more MM. My stupid flyaway hair wants gallons of it. Roll Eyes

Yes, yesterday was the snow storm that wasn't. Now we did get 4" of wet snow. And it did snow practically all day. But Saturday it was "supposed to" give us a direct hit and about a foot of snow. I can't remember the last time we got a foot of snow from one storm. And I was looking forward to it. Angry

Now we have a two week warm up ahead, which I hear is supposed to bring cool weather to SoCal. So there goes are chances of snow. Tongue

Today I attempted to do a self trim with feye's instructions. My ends were looking spooky. Well I failed miserably so I just had my mom even it out. Luckily no length was lost especially good seeing as I hadn't added any in the last month. Angry

Stupid hair. Roll Eyes

Wash Day and Nail Polish Huh

Yesterday was T-C-COW-C day. Followed by ABS, SEM, and MM which I still have yet to make more of. Roll Eyes

The warm up is here! Which meant not having to go out with a hat on. Cool

And not having to worry about my hairstyle fitting under said hat. Cool

Since I still wore a coat I still wore my hair up, I hate the way it hangs with that coat. Tongue

I did a braided loop with a jaw clip. It's supposed to be even warmer tomorrow. And will stay in the 40's-50's for at least all of next week. We'll probably get a snowstorm afterward. Which is equally cool. Cool

In a fit of insanity. Grin

I decided to paint my fingernails yesterday. *checks to see if Angel fainted or if her jaw needs to be picked up off the floor Grin

* They're our now neatly, Shocked

, sporting a color with a lousy name, Metalworks Frost form Sally Hansen. It's a metallic royal purple with faint purple sparkles that are only actually discernible in direct sunlight. It's perdy. Roll Eyes

LMAO!

Sunday, yes I'm slow, I know. Roll Eyes

I wore a braid with my black beaded beak clip. It was wicked windy yet wonderfully warm. Which it will also be again tomorrow, when we perhaps, *gasp* hit 60°. Shocked

It'll probably snow a foot next. Grin

4 days later and my manicure is still holding up. Shocked

Huh, wish I could explain it. Roll Eyes

Air dried towels suck. Tongue

They get all hard and crunchy. Our stupid dryer has a part that needs to be replaced. Angry

Luckily my mom ordered it today so soon we shall have a working dryer with nice "soft" towels. Roll Eyes
