I recently changed some of my beauty products and now I spend the day in a fog of new smells. I don't like scented products, so nothing I wear is particularly strong, but there's a definite adjustment period while I walk around in a vanilla and green tea cloud for a while.
Taking a leaf from my friend Heather L's book, I'm posting a product endorsement. My new shampoo is Burt's Bees Color Keeper Green Tea and Fennel Seed. Having naturally curly hair means a struggle to find shampoo with no detergents in it to dry hair out. Dry hair is a curly girl's worst enemy! In fact I have just started to use shampoo again after a two year hiatus. Don't get grossed out! I cleaned my hair every day, I just used conditioner to do it. I boosted my curl power a ton, and always smelled fresh and sweet, as is my nature. Anyone who knows me will tell you I'm fresh.

Accountability Corner: Tracking My New Year's Resolutions
Resolution #1: Accept affection from people in the form it is offered as opposed to the form I'd like to receive it in.
How am I doing? Fantastic! The people from whom I don't wish to receive affection have stopped trying. It's really the best of all outcomes. Bliss...
Resolution #2: Do not get bogged down with fear over the important life decisions I'm facing in the upcoming year.
How am I doing?
The realization is dawning that I now have 4 months or less to resist the fear of life changing events. Fear is the mind-killer!
Resolution #3 : Bye-bye Back
Fat
How am I doing? I am doing well. I've added a morning routine to my Jazzercise, and now use 8 lbs when doing weight work. I'm thinking of increasing to 10 lbs at my home workouts. The back fat needs to go, and now I need sculpted shoulders as well.

The Hampster's On The Wheel: What's Going On In My Brain
- I wonder whether the Retinol I've introduced to my skin care regieme will really make these lines go away.
- Pickling pears seems like a good idea. Sometimes my ideas don't transfer well to others.
- I think in some ways blogging has made us more rude. I know people for whom a personal note is a thing of the past. All info is posted, so isn't it just as if they've told me? NO. Some things deserve a personal address.

I often share my favorite things too. In fact when we redo my blog I'm going to have a "favorite things" section.
I know what you mean about adjusting to scent. I've notices lipsticks can smell very different. Some of them downright unpleseant.
