UPDATE 2: Using All Natural Homemade Shampoo

Ok so I had the worst time taking pictures this week...I think I'll have Kel take them next time... but here is one shot of what my hair looks like after almost 3 weeks. It's getting there. Still a little oily, but nothing too terrible. It's been so hot I've just been wearing it up anyways. I can't wait to be able to post the photos of it looking healthier than it did before!! PS...don't mind my bad dye job. I really need to take the time to redo it! The darker ends is because the dye hasn't worn off there yet.

Am I ok?

As I am nearing three months after my second trimester loss, I still have people asking me if I am ok. Most of the time my response will be "yes I'm doing ok" or sometimes "I'm hanging in there". If I am truly honest, the answer should be "Not really"...or at least "Not always". Yes, most days I would appear fine. Many of those days I even feel basically fine. But then there are the days when I just...don't. I'm not sure if it is still hormones, or just my body, mind, and soul taking it's own round about way to deal with the last few months. Lately though, it has been tough. Yes, I know, I have 2 wonderful and amazing little girls. And they should be enough. And they are. And they're not. I should be happy with my life. And I am. And I'm not. I feel as though I am in a constant struggle with my self. My heart and my brain are battling and I'm not sure who's winning. At first, it seemed pretty...

The Dirty Little Secret about Deodorant...

So this post is from my other blog... http://anewlifeforusall.blogspot.com/ . I will duplicate some of the posts over to here...but please check that site out too if you are interested in reading my posts about natural products and creations! :) Source So Deodorant. We all know what it is...and I'd say probably 99% of us use it. Why? Well, originally it started off as a way to keep away the smell from sweating that was caused by dirt and bacteria. But as times changed the newest and greatest thing was added to many deodorants..... ANTIPERSPIRANT. I am certain that the majority of people purchase their Antiperspirant Deodorants with out even giving a seconds thought to what they are putting on their body and what this product is actually doing to them. Let's take a look at the ingredients list on the back of a deodorant container... So the main ingredient I want to talk about just so happens to be the #1 Active Ingredient in an...

Holiday 2012 Influenster VoxBox

So I just got my second Influenster VoxBox in the mail the other day... This one I am MEGA excited about!! It had a bunch of fun and exciting things in it.... Here is what I found when I opened the box.... The first item was the Goody QuickStyle Hair Brush. It claims to help dry your hair 30% faster with these little microfiber bristle things in between the regular bristles. I tried this out on the first day, and so far I really like it! I think it did in fact help my hair dry faster. I am concerned that it might be difficult to clean hair out of the brush the way it is designed (I have long hair and tend to leave plenty behind after brushing)...But over all I think it is a pretty decent brush! Next up...my all time favorite... The Quaker Oats Medleys--Cherry Pistachio!!! I LOOOOVE Quaker Medleys....and somehow they knew the Cherry Pistachio was my favorite! One of the best things for breakfast. I've always liked oatmeal...but this...
