I left my curling iron in Kentucky.

Somehow when packing up all the stuff from my five-person family's five day stay in Kentucky, I forgot my curling iron. I know they are cheap, but I am going to be back there in two weeks so I hate to buy a new one.

And I am completely over my straightener. This is mainly because if I curl my hair I can go a few days without washing it, but if I straighten it I will have to wash it the next day because it looks greasy. I know there are those of you who get up every morning to wash and style your hair, but I just cannot bring myself to do it. It is hard enough to get up and spend some time with Jesus. Time with Jesus and a shower would have me up around 4.

So last week when I was getting ready I was forced to dig around behind all this...


in order to find these:

Hot rollers. Anybody still use them? Yeah, I hadn't used them in a while either. And the last time I used them I had long hair without layers. And I hear that pregnancy can do weird things to your hair. And I thought it best to spray them and take the time to clean my bonus room before I took them out. Which all might explain why I seriously underestimated the power of some hot rollers...

Hold on ladies... I had no idea I went to church with ANOTHER beauty pageant queen!

Had I known, you can be assured I would've been much more excited to see you in line at the bank yesterday, I promise.

WOW! Pregnancy did great things to your hair...mine wouldn't do that for any amount of product in the world.
And I still like the idea of a country song with the title "I left my curling iron in Kentucky!"

I probably have a curling iron you can borrow if you'd like while you wait until the 18th, but you're sporting those hot rolled curls so well you might not want to. You know, the 80's are coming back. I've seen the eyeshadow and shoes in stores to prove it.
