Monday is a fun day ..its the first day of the week

I can't find my phone, I woke up late, my Friday manicure is a thing of the past, I left my exam copies home...and the list goes on! Wonderfully fun filledy Monday.

I also lazied out on the hair care is more up there and I feel like I am back in high school... hair back in signature bun...check. Phew. That took care of that. At least I didn't chicken out and put back on a ponytail!

What Color are you eyes?

Soooo my day has started off with a couple humorous incidents. I got a call on my work phone from a strange number displayed with too many digits. I answered and soon realized that it was telemarketing to have be sign up/re-sign up some business publication. I said whatever, and proceeded with the process. ...

Then the guy, seemingly outsourced from somewhere else in the hemisphere, who already had all my information: name, email, address (electronic stalker?) nicely politely asked me "What is the color of your eyes?...We need to ask a personal question for security purposes to show that I spoke to you". 

The surprise at the chosen question made me answer correctly rather than with a smart assed comment like "fluorescent orange". I was truly tempted to call him back and change my response lol.

Anyway...how is your day going?

Still that got me to thinking maybe I should try to snap the color of my eyes....

Braid-ed-dy-do-dah Braided-i-day

So on my back to natural journey in a symbolic time #earthweek, I decided to quickly some single braids/plaits and just leave them out. I'm getting used to it, usually I feel I look like a 12 year old when I do. However, since I'm now in my 30's and that would mean I'm shaving a good 20 years of my true age :) I guess it does seem so bad anymore.

Why braids and not the ever popular twists? I dunno twists scare me more, my hair doesn't seem to know how to respond at times, some strings, some poofs, and sublimal testimony that somewhere under my exterior many ethnicities combined to provide my heritage. So the long and short, braids for now.

Gradually I hope to move to more "grown up" styles!

Naturally Me ... On the Go

So much for my earlier decision to blog more often etc etc. Yeah I am much better at following blogs and being part of the discussion....sigh. But anyway I am still ahead of my previous 1 blog every 2 months sure beats 1 every 2 years :)

Today though I hope to start a more regular trend as it will address a topic I've flirted with mentioned to others and always resorted to same old bad habits about... Reverting to and caring for my natural, black hair.

Thanks to #the HodgePodge Files for giving me the most directed and economical start yet!

I'm loving the Shea Moisture smoothie and plan to gradually work my way to a on the go but effective regimen. With 3 kids under six, time time time is a demanding mantra.
