So, the theme of my blog today is self improvement. There are a lot of ways I want to make myself better spiritually, physically, mentally, etc... I figure this is a good time to start because on Wednesday I have a hair appointment, and a dentist appointment. I want to do something different so I am thinking of getting a perm. I never do anything with my hair so it is always flat against my head and my original color has been growing back for almost a year now. I keep getting frustrated that I am not doing enough so I am going to give it some texture with a perm. I am also getting whitening trays and a mouth guard at the dentist so my smile should be looking good (not that I am too worried about how it is now). I am going to get gung ho about counting calories and working out again, and I just paid for a tanning bed. So, in a few months I should be thinner, in shape, bronzed, with curly hair, and a whiter smile. I have taken some before pictures to track my progress. These pics are a little embarrassing, but that may be the motivation I need.
This is what I usually do with my hair

I just wanted to update that I wasn't able to get a perm because the hair was to damaged where it was colored, so I got a cut and decided instead to continue to grow out my original color. (Much to the dismay of Andrea & Tawny who are in hair school and can't stand my two tone look while it grows out). I will admit, it doesn't look awesome, but I am determined to get my original hair back and have not dyed it since Novemeber 2008 before Hawaii. I keep getting my hair cut 4 inches at a time (thanks to Andrea, she is great) and I probably only have 2 more major hair cuts to go! It only took 2 years. Geeze. I also didn't do so hot on my weight. In fact, in March-April I actually gained 7 pounds that I am now trying to get off. So frustrating. My teeth are whiter though, thanks to Uncle Bart. So, my efforts continue.
