That's a freeway.  You have to drive 20 minutes from where I live to find one of those.  And yes not much town activity along them mostly exits and roadkill.  So even the sticks in SoCal are more developed. 

Wash Day

Wash day was yesterday. Humidity's a wee bit higher so hair just feels dry and gets a lot less poofy, but is still problematic.  Finally had a shower cap fail last week. So I'm down to two.

Today's style was supposed to be a herringbone all the way down but I still can't get the hang of the tail part. So I stopped at the base of my neck and ended it in an english braid. It's fine either way.

Got new mascara today, had a coupon to boot.  Finally can throw out my old one, it was starting to act funny, which is usually the sign that its been around too long.

Rain was nice last night, we've got some more lined up for tomorrow ending Sunday morning. 

I have decided to again embrace longer nails, which are still called short, 1/4" out or less from the tip is considered short. I never go past 1/4". They're "me" so I shall retain them to the best of my abilities. So of course I decide to start when they're peeling.  So I coated them with nail strengthening polish, and I'll make sure I get enough protein and we should be fine. 

Holy crow!  Reminds me of a few years back when we got a wicked storm.  It was the tail end of a hurricane and the trees were bending and the house was shaking!  I put my bunny in a basket and wrapped up the bird cage and took them down to basement. I ran out into the yard gabbed my bonsai tree and dashed back just before it hit.  Poor bunny was trembling and so was I.  He plastered himself against my chest and dug his nails in.  The hail was bouncing off the house.  The sky had turned green and all I could think of was tornado!   When it was all over there were golf ball hail all over the grown, and some broken windows in other houses.  Freaky Canadian weather!

Catch Up And Such

Wash day was Monday and yesterday. Nothing exciting. Current products suck like a Hoover so that's where we're at.  Hair also decided not to grow last month. 

Today's style was braided and contained under my last large tortoise shell jaw clip as it was windy and rainy.

Speaking of that, got stuck in the unmentionable Wal-Mart, which is now only useful for cheap slippers, and nail tools,  during a thunderstorm. It was raining very, very, very hard. And thundered occasionally too but was mostly raining like the end of the world.  Meanwhile back home it stormed for two straight hours.  How glad was I too miss that.

Speaking of nails. Alas another one broke.  Quel surprise. 

So my birthday is Sunday.  I will be making a cheesecake of some sort for Easter/my birthday/my dad's birthday (which is today) next weekend, forgot to get a recipe this weekend.  Well at least they're forecasting beautiful weather, mid 60's and sunny. 

Weekend Style

Thanks Angel.  And it was blasé as all my birthdays have been for about the past decade. 

So Saturday, in what I would describe as a fit of insanity , in desperation to deal with my ever drying hair I used some of my remaining KO oil.  Not only did it do nothing but my hair is now greasy and dry today.  I have finally gotten the message though. The message my hair has been sending me for the past three and a half years. You hate natural products. I get it. I shall now return to the last known working product, which would have last been used when I was in high school.  I know I'm a little slow, but hey at least I eventually figure these things out right? 

So hair yesterday was some more of the same. A flipped ponytail with the tail braided and accented for the first time this season with my flower/enamel and crystal barrette.

Twas warm yesterday and tomorrow it will be cold.  Easter forecasts are contradictory at best. 

Oh yes and another nail has been lost to the cause.  And I spilled nail polish remover in the bathroom while removing my last pedicure color.
