hair fiasco; cooking; no energy today

Yesterday, I had my hair cut and blow dryed straight. My hair is normally wavy. So I thought it would be interesting to see how it looked if the hairstylist tried to straighten it. She did such a good job. She said that her hairdryer was a special ionic dryer that she can order for clients but it costs $200. I didn't order one! But I loved how my hair looked and felt. It was really straight and felt like silk.

Last night, my husband was amazed at my hair. He said it looked "really different" which is his way of saying he likes it. But then he made me laugh because this morning, when he saw it was still straight, he asked, "How much longer till it frizzes out?"

I guess the answer was "Not much longer" because I washed it and tried to dry it the same way with a hairdryer my mom gave me that is ionic too. But I evidently didn't do something right because I ended up with a caveman hairdo. Too funny!

I guess I'll go back to "wash and go" style. My hair looks the healthiest when I don't blow dry it. I have a lot of wave to my hair, so it kinda does look "styled".

Today I am feeling so fatigued! I don't know why! I don't think I'll be able to take my daily walk anyhow because I have to cook some special food for an event I will attend tomorrow. But I would be tempted to stay home even if I had nothing to do. I just don't feel very energetic right now. I am wondering why. I know my diet has not been perfect the last couple of days, but it's pretty darn good. I am still eating all whole foods, and I am being careful to not eat too much at one time.

I guess I'll just drink more coffee and alternate with water, and hope that the cool evening air will perk me up.

Back to cooking...(I'm making stuffed mushrooms and a brown rice salad. Yummy!)

p.s. I am listening to Sweet today, the last 3 albums. Thanks E.!!!
