Henna

Ok so last 2 days I have done this whole process. My goodness it's alot of work. I had to boil the hibiscus flowers to get the red fluid, mixed that into the henna powder, let it sit for 24 some odd hours and waited. Last night I put it on my hair and rinsed it out this AM. It's a coppery brown in the house, my greys are straight up copper penny. I like it, it supposed to level out in 3 days, I don't know if it will become more reddish or what. I would love to acheive the deep red tones. I should've taken a picture this morning, but my camera batteries are dead and gone. Darn it.

Happy New Year

Good day, Good start new year and everything is all right. New Year was nice, had a great time at my friends party. My fiyah man went and enjoyed himself as well. Lately something has gotten my fiyah man down. I'm pretty sure what it is and I know I can't do anything to help. But it's plenty difficult to watch someone go through problems and just stand by. I know it's best, but still it isn't easy. Relationships are work. Anyway, another thing I resumed was taking better care of myself. I am back to exercising this time with my 16 year old. I figured he is fit and works out on the regular for the high school sports he's deep into. Well, golly, I went from 180 down to 174 in the first week. I was dying the first couple of days, it's all good now. Some of the weight was of course all water but it looked good on the scale anyway. Another positive with the water was it helped with my supreme bloating. My belly was so huge. My fiyah man noticed it and asked if I was near TOM. There are a zillion people at the gym, I'm sure it's the new year thing and all. It's like the gym is too small, but I'm sure it's just the number of people inside at the time. I imagine it will decrease along with most people drive. I'm hoping that by the time I lose hope, I will have lost enough fat weight to continue and push through, my son will be a huge driving force. I figured if I gave him some extra cash in his account for the workout help, his drive would push me through my lack of. My hair is growing and not growing. the ends I think are in need of a trim. I will attack this later.
