What color are you?

I almost got the crying baby out, then I put on my big girl panties and trudge through my next assignment:

Choose a color to write about. Use the thesaurus function on your software or a printed thesaurus at least ten times during this exercise. Work to focus your writing and write tight. Make the assignment no more than 250 words.

_________________________________________

Inside the crayon box, the big one with 72 colors, the one that makes all the kids in your first grade class jealous, yep that one with the sharpener on the back, you will find me in the purple section. They call me lavender. I’m a free spirit that goes with the flow, wherever the wind takes me and boy do I smell good. People will stop me and say,

“Hey, I know you, don’t I? Where have I seen you before?”
“The lavender field off of Route 82.”

”Right! That’s it!”
It happens all the time. I don’t want to sound pretentious or anything but I have a calm, mitigating effect on people. I’m easy on the eyes and bring a smile to a face. Sometimes a face that’s had a particularly rough day at work, a face that’s belabored after a trying day with a family member or a face that’s sitting in front of a computer endeavoring to finish what they may think is a difficult task and they are stuck to their chair until they are done.
I roll with the punches and go on forever. You can see me wave ever so gently in the wind and then I can disappear, leaving you wondering what you just saw. Leaving you with a sense of contentment.
“What the heck? Was that a ghost or just a shadow?”
No it was I, and they call me lavender.

Lather, Rinse, Repeat

The husband had to go into work early today, so I got the shower second. And it's throwing off my whole day. Being off schedule already, I decided to throw caution to the wind and try a different shampoo and conditioner. I received samples in the mail yesterday called Naked Naturals. The samples are for color treated hair and are lavender scented, it’s like they knew me when they sent it. I love lavender and I have gray roots.

I used this natural shampoo and I have to say I smell pretty good, it’s a shame no one is here to enjoy being around me and my hair. And I don’t think the dog has noticed or she’s just not saying anything. Besides the pleasant scent, Naked Naturals is free of harsh chemicals and is suppose to make your hair stronger.

I have struggled with my hair forever. Flat, straight, thin, dry and now gray hair. I would love to see an improvement with this hair of mine. After using this shampoo and conditioner, I think my hair feels a little fuller, maybe a little more bounce. It’s definitely worth a try, because the more you use it, the better it is for your hair and I have a coupon.
