I went online shopping today…early this morning. Perhaps I wasn’t fully awake, because I was planning on just grabbing a couple (2) products. What happened?    It’s all her fault.

Ohm Body

• Sweet Hair Pudding
• Aloe Hair Gel
• Crown and Glory Avocado Custard
• Awaken Hair Deodorizer (Folks smoke around me)

Beauty by Donna Marie

• Lock and Twist Pudding
• Cocoa Hemp Hair Buttermilk

CurlMart (naturallycurly.com)

• Oyin Juice and Berries
• Oyin Burnt Sugar Pomade

Hydratherma Naturals

• Daily Moisture Lotion
• Follicle Invigorator

I NEED TO BE
Well…I couldn’t decide what to get. The only reason I went to CurlMart is because Donna Marie was sold out of the MiraCurl  Moisture Mist and I’m a little tired of the smell of the CD Black Vanilla Leave-In. I always wanted to try the Juice and Berries (I Greg Juice). It made NO sense not to grab a jar of Burnt Sugar Pomade, because I do that stuff too.  Plus, Oyin takes too long to ship. I can’t wait 2 weeks

Hopefully, the Ohm Body Hair Deodorizer will be nice. I hate when a smoker gets around my freshly-shampooed hair

*Update* Added two (2) products by Hydratherma Naturals. Yes…I know

*sigh*

Okay…how did I miss THIS product line? I don’t know y’all. I may have to try a few things

I’m just feelin’ some of the products….the descriptions are just WONDERFUL I the name “Donna Marie”….I feel like I can trust her to do right by my hurr. I may be off the wagon.

What’s happening to me? I’ve been so good, for so long….
Don’t NOBODY (yep, that’s the way I said it) come up in here with “I love her products! They’re the best!” type comments, either. I’ll send you to blog “purgatory”, till you repent!

Folks wanna keep me broke!

Or,  am I about to fall off the wagon? I’m supposed to be done with trying new products. I have my staples and my regimen down. I’ve not had a product purchasing binge,  in over a year. I’m doing good.  That may change.

Here’s what I’m thinking I need to get, from Darcy’s Botanicals:

• Natural Coils Curling Jelly.  I can  see this working for two-strand twists. I can see it very clearly, too.
• Deep Conditioning Mask. When I was down-deep–and-dirty in my over-the-top  need to buy every product made for natural hair,  conditioners were on the top of my list. I conditioners. This one looks delectable. My hair is salivating.
• Herbal Leave-In Conditioning Spritz: Nothing like a good dose of moisture, for parched tresses. Spray leave-ins are great for daily, weightless conditioning. They contain water…the best “moisturizer” for naptural hair.

So, what do I do?  Do I give in to my desire to have these products in my possession? I’ve been good, for over a year, right?

I am not a product junkie. No…no…no.

I don’t have time to blog. I don’t. So, rather than try to talk about one thing, I’ll hit a bunch of stuff, and hopefully you’ll get what I’m going for. Here goes…

I don’t like “church”. I’m breathing hard, as I write this, because I know it’s bad for a Christian to say they don’t like “church”. But I don’t. I find it often boring, irrelevant, drab, and full of “sick” folks…who THINK they’re so much more “well” than sinners, but they’re not. I know I’m a complete mess, without Jesus — and even with Him, I know I’m prone to “falling off the wagon”, if I don’t stay close and prayerful. We’re so easily “scared” by folks who don’t know God. We can’t seem to “get” that we’re just LIKE THEM, without Jesus, and some of us, with Jesus.  I need The Good Shepherd. Everyday. The Body of Christ has not progressed, while the world is getting sicker, by the second.

President Obama better have nerves of steel, cuz folks are looking to make him go mad — all the scrutiny and nitpicking. It was mentioned on another site about how Obama’s association with Jeremiah Wright almost ruined his political career, yet John McCain’s association with John Hagee never was a serious issue. Yeah…we shall overcome SOMEDAY, but that day ain’t here. Watch your back, Barack. The haters are growing in number, and in hatred — AND many ”evangelicals” are just as hateful.

Why? Why does a man kill his wife, five children, and them himself, over the loss of a job? Then, names his murdered wife as the one who came up with the plan to kill everybody. Since the beginning of time, women have been used as “scapegoats”, when the bottoms fall out of men’s lives — Heck, it started with Adam, remember? He told God (instead of taking responsibility for his own actions), “The woman You gave to be with me, gave me the fruit…” For some reason, I don’t believe Lupoe’s claim. But, we’ll never know, will we?

Now, before folks start talking to me about the “pressure”, let me just say this: We are growing folks, who can NOT take pressure, hardship or misfortune.  I’m so sick and tired of reading about men, killing women/wives/children, because they lost their jobs, or the IRS was closing in, or the sky was falling, or whatever. Can you imagine Lupoe’s children’s thoughts, when daddy was pulling the trigger? How horrific to think that parents are not a refuge for their children. Selah.

We need The Lord, y’all. Too many “church goers”, and very few disciples/worshippers. We prefer “the rituals and traditions of man”, rather than spiritual intimacy with The Most High One.

Okay. I’m about to detangle my hair (it’s in two-strand twists), for a shampoo. My hair is sectioned off, and I reach for the spray bottle, to wet down each section and apply conditioner. As I’m sprayin’, a thought pops in my mind, ‘Wow, this water smells just like Windex!”. Well, my friends, it’s because it was…Windex (Lime Action Multi Surface).

Carry on…
