MY DAD DID THE SAME THING!!! He now 60 with a 8 year old. My older two and my niece have a uncle that they are older than. It was hard for me at first but then my kids have been the coolest since birth. The didnt cry unless they were dirty or hungry. They were no spoiled, the slept in on saturdays.. They were PERFECT!!

We were JUST talking about that yesterday. He said he wants a Porche two seater. I was like um.... He heard the umm.... and said he want it when he retire. I was like oh yeah we will have two sports cars and a SUV. He was like SUV FOR WHAT.. I was like umm grandbabies. HE WAS HECK NAW!! I had to pull him back and remind him that the oldest will be 25. By that time he may have graduated from college with his masters and be married wit kids.. ya never know..

There are some places in the world that I will still want to go. I just want to take a year and backpack. Just go wherever the wind takes me. At 40 I will be still sexy to do so.. I give it 45 so the baby could get out of college. Then IM OUT!!

Wow, Nubie just catching up on everything.

Glad all worked out for you.

I love your personality ...

HHD

Hey Nubie!

Loving the new Avatar girlie!

Nuuuubaaaaaaaayyyyyyy! LOL!

See Kt whenever we hook up we will totally be off the subject of hair, lol.

Glad to mahog bless my page...

Sooo I'm in bed typing this becuz I feel too lazy for anything else. Now MY eyes are heavy n nose running from allergies; is it contagious? I feel like the only cure is to sleep!!!

Anyhoo, I peeped ericas vid on 2 strands and I learn somethin new everyday. I normally put some kbb milk all over first, mist w/aloe gro then grab n go using butter to each piece. Hooowever, tonight I'm gonna redo em and do her "twist within a twist" type method for more definition. And I like the idea of using an oil under the butter for moisture retention.

Mason is clearly fine cuz he hasn't stopped talkn (I'll fix that wit more medication) and he takin his azz to school tomorrow so I can have uninterrupted SLEEP!!!

I'll post pics of my 2strands vs erica method later tonight.

Hey Nubbie!! Nuubayy!! New Beee!! Nubie!!

Ok girl I am finally getting caught up. Glad the babie is doing good. I'm glad you are achieving your goals. I am very glad to ready anything you write cuz u crazy and know it and you don't care. Reminds me a lil bit of me.

Anyways I just wanted to say Hey!! Since I'm back from the Chi and trying to get caught up on the Challenge. So with that said. HEY!!

@ Nubbie - LOL!! Yeah that meeting may really be oh so off the topic of hair. LOL, but it will still be GREAT CONVO!! I would do the same thing as you and give my baby meds because I KNOW YOU TIRED.

NN:Wow im late but lol old soul. Sometimes i just feel like i always have to be the adult in a situation. Oh! Dont get me STARTED on that teen mom show. I cant even watch stuff like that without getting upset. I stopped watching reality shows all together because the stuff they do just doesnt make sense. Anyway, thanks! and are those allergies going through the computer now?!? Because when i woke up, my eyes iched, and i can barely breathe through my nose with out it hurting. ack Oh, and i cant wait to see the pics!

KTO: Wow! Im glad you got in control of everything and made it work out Ive seen some girls who dropped out of school (because of pregnancies) and they come back but they dont do any work at all. If you are back, shouldnt you be trying to reach your fullest potential? You can believe im doing everything i can in my power to get a good education. Also, gl with the retirment!

Wynter I told you, you are wise beyond your years..

Lol Why, thank you

So im lovin the results from erica's method of her 2 strands. I just pretty much re-did my twist using-in this order: water n evoo w/eo concoction to sorta re-wet em; kbb milk to detangle (was like butta baby); used my oil mix (avocado, jojoba, almond, and some nectar) THEN used qhemet burdock cream-i figured w/all those oils i'd use somethin lighter than butter).

It actually stretched my twist and when i was done i spritzed on my aloe gro (REEEEEMIX: aloe, NO WATER, eucalyptus, sage, rosemary, peppermint and nectar) all over my head. i got a twa so tryin to spray it on my scalp only is pointless I prefer to wear my satin bonnet cuz i feel like it holds the moisture in better vs when i was lazy n just slept on my satin pillowcase. Now i need to find my humidifer....

Im gonna do my twist out tonight vs wait til tomorrow becuz i feel like the longer i let it hang the better it gets and plus when i walk the bridge tomorrow morning i want the wind to blow thru my scalp. im just gonna have to contain myself and try hard NOT to wash it after im done!!

So before i show u my pics, pay NO ATTN to those big fat pimples doin the stanky leg on my face. Im tryin to get back on my facial reggie so i started fresh wit the oil cleansin method yesterday. Also, can somebody...anybody PLEASE recommend some sunscreen to use for the face n body. Im prone to sun poison (not burn)...yes POISON which pisses me off cuz i cant enjoy to tan like everyone else so my mainly my arms always break out with these lil raised bumps and turn red and...nevermind!! So yea..that would be helpful.

My twist w/greased scalp from pooka butter and used Safi avocado butter to twist on dry hair


Erica's method-notice the stretch


And im gettin better in the back...

go head with dem dere twist!!! I cant wait to see the twist out!!

I cant wait to see the twist out too!!! I've tried this method a few times too (stumble upon it). I like the results.

I like your twists. Looks like it will make for a great twist out

So i did my twist out and i must say...their are OOOZIN moisture . i used my kbb creme to seperate em and twirl as i untwisted and i can smell the lavendar vanilla KICKIN..mmm!! i only used a dab. my butter isnt this strong smellin ...Anyhoo, im gonna leave em alone for now but after a twist out i usually prefer to massage my scalp to hide the "parted" and i kinda like the poofy/messy look. When i get up in the morning i'll probably just massage ***hold up, im losin my train of thought cuz im watchin the Dan Band on the Tonight Show, lmaooooo***

ok yea, ill fluff a bit before i leave the house tomorrow, im thinkin im gonna treat myself to lunch after my walk on the bridge. i always like time to self so i'll take a good book "thank god, im natural" and enjoy my favorite chinese resty!! (hunan shrimp EXTRA SPICY w/egg drop soup **lickin lips**). i know i dont have 100 day hair like sweet so im gonna see how long this twist out will last me but since im sure it'll stay moisturized at least another day or two (from how it feels now) i'll mainly just spritz n go. I looooove not doin jack shyt to my head ooops, did i say that... i forgot...im a laaaaydee!!

the pic doesnt even show the full BLING in my hair from the moisture


still workin on the back but its untouched for now


gotta work on the parted ness


i need to pin the side up or somethin different


Overall, i loved the results and practice just makes it better n better. Im almost scared to revisit my coiling days becuz they take so long ...standby for that one!! i wanna make use of my headbands n stuff but i dont want to abuse my edges too much so im gonna wear em freely for now, i got to put my accessory stash to good use.

Your are working that twist out. Looks good.

Have you tried lifting the roots lightly with a pick to cover the parts?

Hello miss laaaaydee lol Im lovin the twist-out I always adored the chunky "i let my hair do what she wants" type styles. Sorry it took me so long to get back to your page but oh lawdy i done had me a long day! and its not even over yet lol. Oh and before i forget, sun poisoning is NOT the business. Im also a sufferer.

glad to know im not the only one lackin melanin cherry!! ive already decided instead of a bathin suit im showin up on the beach to lounge in scuba gear.

@lynnie, i havent tried usin a pick to lift the roots, anytime i bother wit it i go too far and it ends up frizzy...EEEEK!!

Well dont go too far then...

yes mama lynnie

Why does today feel like a friday??? i've come to the conclusion i hate the back of my head's shape. it looks like Kid's from kid n play!!! so when i wake up and try to fluff the back from lookin so flat...UGH!! so yes lynnie i will try to fluff em out wit a pick and learn when to stop, lol.

im so unmotivated to exercise right now. im SITTIN on the couch catchin up on my blogs while wearin my exercise outfit. i woke up in the right direction and got lazy all over again. im so scared to attempt my Insane workout dvd again so i think i'll just chase after my son later at the park. even he out runs me...on a BIKE!!! why cant somebody just fund my lipo operation and be done wit it

I wish today was friday! You are getting better with the twists. I'm gonna try the erica twist method.
