August 24, 2007

This morning the boys and I got outside. I pushed them on their swings for quite a while, until my arms were too tired to continue. They played on the slide for a while. They are pretty good at the slide now and can even climb up the slide these days. They played in their sandbox for quite a while. I even had time to weed an entire flower bed that was completely covered with weeds, while they played.

We are suppose to get some rain today and it has been cloudy all morning. I love it! It was 78 degrees when we were outside this morning. Although it was a bit humid, it was still somewhat breezy and it felt so wonderful.

I am glad you are feeling well. I am curious about your hair. I have naturally curly hair also. What do you put in it or how do you do your hair to your liking? I am always on the lookout for new ideas.

Hi Jen,

First I use Wet by Sebastian, when my hair is still wet from the shower. Then I spray it with Paul Mitchell hair spray (I think it's medium hold). I usually have to re-wet it with a spray bottle once or twice because it dries so fast. It needs to be good and wet when I start to dry it with the hair dryer or it will be frizzier. Next I dry it with a defuser, holding my head to the sides and even upside down so that the curl goes all the way to my scalp. As it gets drier, I crunch it a bit using my hands. I never comb it or brush it after I get out of the shower, although I run my hands through it once before using the products. The more I keep my hands out of it, the better it looks and the less frizzy it is. I use a comb in the shower with creme rinse to remove the tangles.
