Great Day to Be Alive!



I woke up this morning to a beautiful sunrise, and although it was raining, that did not dampen my mood. You see, this past weekend, I was a bit under the weather, and despite the numerous tasks I needed to accomplish, I could not give my 100%.  If you watched my 50 random facts about me video, you will know that I am a perfectionist, so I needed to really "kick this cold/fever/flu/what-ever-sickness" to the curb.

After taking meds all weekends, and it working just a little, I decided to try a different more basic method... increase my vitamin C intake. I'm not a big fan of vitamin C tablets, so off to the grocery store I went... on this wet, yet beautiful day.

I tweeted as I arrived at the grocery store:
  "The Best Time to Go to the Grocery Store is when it is #raining".

This is very true.
 
I stocked my cart full of colors of the rainbow

... discovered some new fruits that I think will get some giggles from the girls (Big Sis and Lil Sis). Have you ever tried "Little Grapes" before? They look like grapes but are the size of raisins.

Picked up some squash... yeah! I have been watching too much @Nap85 DearNaptural85 vlogs. Planning on making something with these.. Hmmm...

Then decided to infuse my water for the day with some orange and strawberries


I did eat 2 whole oranges for breakfast and a handful of cherry tomatoes... LOL!

This is my first time trying infused water and I am looking forward to trying more infused water recipes.

Bottoms up!

What to do if it seems like your natural hair is not growing

Image
@breezyspuffs (IG) If it feels like your hair isn’t growing, the issue may not actually be growth itself—hair grows about half an inch per month on average. The problem may be breakage, slow growth, or factors that hinder visible length retention. Here’s what you can do to promote healthier, stronger growth: 1. Check Your Routine for Breakage Causes: • Reduce heat styling: Excessive use of flat irons, curling irons, and blow-dryers can damage hair. Try air-drying or using lower heat settings and always use a heat protectant. • Limit chemical treatments: Frequent coloring, perming, or relaxing can weaken hair, leading to breakage. • Be gentle when detangling: Use a wide-tooth comb and start from the ends, working your way up to avoid pulling and snapping. 2. Moisturize Regularly: • Dry hair is more prone to breakage, so keep it hydrated. Use moisturizing conditioners, deep conditioners, or hair masks weekly, and consider leave-in conditioners or oils like coconut

  @breezyspuffs (IG) Getting rid of split ends in natural hair involves a combination of good hair care practices and regular maintenance. Here are some effective ways to manage and reduce split ends: 1. Trim Regularly • Schedule Regular Trims : Every 8-12 weeks, visit a professional stylist or trim your hair at home with sharp hair-cutting shears to remove split ends. • Search and Destroy Method : If you prefer not to cut your hair often, this method involves trimming individual split ends as you spot them. 2. Moisturize Your Hair • Use a Deep Conditioner : Regular deep conditioning helps retain moisture, making hair less prone to splitting. • Leave-in Conditioner : Apply a leave-in conditioner after washing to maintain hydration throughout the day. 3.
