I have an ongoing internal debate between long hair and short hair. I love the idea of long hair, but whenever I try to let my hair grow it gets really dry and unmanageable, so I end up cutting it off and sporting a short hairdo. You can tell the changing of the seasons by my hair length. Spring is when my hair is the longest, by summer I’ve cut it all off because it is hot and frizzy, and by Fall I’ve vowed to let it grow again.
I’m currently in the mindset that I’m going to let my hair grow, and have a ponytail by summer. I was a bit skeptical that I could do it, until I received a sample of Naked Naturals.
Naked Naturals is a new natural shampoo and conditioner with no synthetic fragrances, no harsh chemicals, no DEA or TEA, and no animal by-products. What it does have is Keravis, a natural plant protein that increases hair strength up to 7x over other shampoos and conditioners which contain animal by-products. That means that my hair can grow healthier and stronger, which means longer.
I received my sample of Naked Naturals yesterday, and with only three shampoos, I can tell that my hair feels moisturized without being greasy and thick without being a giant poof-ball. It is scented with awapuhi and lavender so it smells fresh and clean without smelling like a perfume counter.
Thanks to Naked Naturals, and a quick trip to the local Walgreens to pick up a bottle, I can picture myself sporting a long luxurious ponytail by summer!
I hope that when Mike and I have a kid they can do something cool like Cruz Beckham and his break dancing. I think we could all do without a three year old flashing gangsta hand gestures, but besides that, he’s quite the showman.
My five year old cousin cousin, Kate, has a signature joke. It can be adapted to any situation on a whim, and is always funny. Especially to her. It goes a little something like this…
If she can work Gulf oysters into a joke, you know it’s a keeper. But as funny as oyster jokes are, they have a serious side, so if you love eating those slippery little muscles, you have to Be Oyster Aware. If you are an “at risk” individual (meaning you have Liver Disease, Iron overload disease, diabetes, cancer, stomach disorders, or other diseases that weaken the immune system) remember to eat your oysters steamed, fried, grilled, or cooked in some fashion so that you avoid Vibrio Vulnificus, which can lead to serious sickness or death.
If you’re “at risk” remember to cook your oysters, then crack an oyster joke!
I decided I wasn’t up to tackle anything today, so I put my husband to work washing dishes!
Maintenance came by two weeks ago because the apartment below ours had a water stain on their ceiling and they shut off the water to our dish washer even though they didn’t think it was causing the problem. They promised a new dish washer would arrive this week, and that is when Mike will be relieved of his dish washing duties. I don’t mind loading and unloading a dish washer, but scrubbing is not my thing.
Make sure to visit 5 Minutes For Mom to see what everyone else is tackling this week!
Jimmy Kimmel debuted his rebuttal against Sarah Silverman and Matt Damon’s birthday tribute, and it’s a solid effort. The celebrity appearances are almost endless, but Brad Pitt, Harrison Ford, Joan Jett, and McLovin top the list.
I think it goes without saying that the video is NSFW. Enjoy!
