Can you name 5 different.............

Hair today.  I co-washed on Saturday, detangled, trimmed, and twisted.  I applied leave in and Shea butter to the ends only and voila! I bought this bow Friday at the mall right before I got called a little girl by an employee at Bath and Body Works :-/

Types of apples?  (I saw this on a billboard and thought it was fun, by the way, I failed)

Tootles for now........

Hump day happiness.....

Phew, here we go....

1. God woke us up this morning!

2.  Avis is taking espanol lessons

3.  Lovely lunch today with the ladies at top hat

4.  Staying home next week :-)  Hooray for resting....

5.  Great chiropractor visit yesterday

6.  Had an interesting dream last night

7.  Tried a new conditioner this weekend that I so far quite like (more on this to come once I use it a bit more)

8.  Met Dr. James Merritt on Sunday-in case you don't know him he is a pastor at Crosspointe church in Duluth Ga, and has a program, Touchinglives, that comes on TBN every Sunday at 8:30am and webcasts anytime you want at touchinglives,org.  He is an awesome teacher and more importantly, from what I gathered during our one meeting at least, a very kind, loving and giving person. 

9.  Zoe's smiling :-)

10.   I had a wonderful weekend with my family in Ga and got the opportunity to whoop up on Micah in Wii tennis Saturday night....yeah, my arm still hurts.....I won the game but Micah with his 5 year old wisdom could definitely get the last laugh since I'm pretty sure he isn't still sore, oh what a 24 year difference can make

That's all for today, share some happiness in the comments section porfavor

Kudos....that wasn't so extra ordinary

Add caption

Hello there lovelies~

Today I was talking to my Granny and she mentioned something that made me wonder why we act surprised when people do the right thing/the thing they are supposed to do.  A younger cousin of mine had a baby recently, and my Granny was commenting on how the father has been a help to her.  I immediately thought he should be, he was a help to her making the baby.  And although I think it's awesome to acknowledge and praise people when they do that right thing, I don't feel like it should be a  surprise.  When did doing the right thing become extraordinary?!?!?!  So, I decide that each month on the first Friday I am going to have a post titled "kudos.....that wasn't so extra ordinary" dedicated to acknowledging something right that a person (or group) has done that should be the norm, the expected, just the plain right thing to do, but nowadays isn't always.  

So, if you see someone do something or know of someone who has done something that deserves a kudos then send me an email at curlykinkybeauty@gmail.com and let me know so I can post it.  If you can add a picture with the email that would be even better!!!  

I look forward to hearing from you all.

New blog

Hello there lovelies~

I decided that I want to try a new conditioner.  As I do with most things I try for the first time (hair products, doctors, friends) I searched for reviews.  My search led me to a new blog that I almost immediately fell in love with.  Kendra, from "natural with Kendra,"  is a wonderful natural sharing her experience.  Kendra is apostolic and approaches her hair journey from a biblical point of view while giving great tips and motivation.  So when you get a chance check out Kendra's blog and let me know what you think.

Have a great weekend.

Hump day happiness

Here we go.....................

1.  God woke us up this morning with purpose

2.  A great message this morning on TBN

3.  Last full week of the semester

4.  Went over exciting research data today from one of my projects

5.  Shunta is loving "team natural." We should get that testimony from a once upon a time "creamy crack" addict

6.  The beautiful weather is sticking around

7.  Fun times in Cola this past weekend (Shout out to Breana and the cast of Dream Girls)

8.  Upcoming fun times in Ga this weekend

9.  My baby (Micah, the nephew) is turning 5........I needed to pause while I sit in amazement at how Micah went from being born yesterday to 5!

10.  I am finishing the book Unglued.  I started reading Unglued as a library borrow, but it expired before I finished.  I had to go back on the hold list and wait for weeks to get it back.  I finally got it back yesterday and have already read 2 chapters (love this book).  Okay, how cool is this.  I borrowed the ebook on Overdrive and when it renewed the book was opened automatically to the page I left off on!!!  I'll write a review when I finish reading this book.  I LOVE it so far (and am almost finished)

Well, I suspect that's all for today

Leave a little bit of happiness in the comments section!

1.  God woke us up this morning in good health

2.  You- all of my family and friends who consistently read my blog

3.  I reached milestone one !!! (Feel free to begin planning my parade....NOW)

4.  The semester is so close to over, phew, a break is definitely welcomed

6.  Dreamgirls in Cola this weekend

7.  I found a good youtuber to do yoga with in the mornings (Bryan Jones) 

8.  I didn't get the summer grant I applied for- although this doesn't seem like something to be grateful for, not getting this grant taught me some needed lessons/brought about some good revelations and for those lessons I'm extremely grateful

9.  Birthday in a couple of weeks....oh my goodness, when did Micah grow up?  He'll be 5!

10.  Beach vacation in 1.5 months (I think it's time for the countdown to begin)

That's all for me today.  Please share your happiness in the comments section.  I love knowing what great things are happening in your lives.

One thing remains....

Hair after a wash and go.  Conditioner and leave in by Cantu.

No matter how my hair routine changes, and boy does it change, there is always one thing that remains the same.  When nighttime comes those fingers get to working, and I give my scalp a good massage.  Supposedly massaging your scalp increases blood circulation and helps with hair growth.  Personally, I just think it feels good :-)
