WhooHoo 07/27/2008

Why is it that women shave their pits, legs, perhaps toes and pluck a few things here and there on their faces and trim a special something here and there...
Yet men do not maintain one thing that is going hairwire as they age. Their eyebrows!!

I bet a million, hairy bucks that if my eyebrows were as bad as the mens' out there...there would be no reason to trim me lil spots.

Oh...how does this relate to recover?
Easily...taking care of your outside as well as the inside.

lol...got meself out of that one....

Gotta sneaking feeling I'm going to be ranting today. Perhaps I should just go back to developing my cottage garden.

You just rant.....get it all out......but don't forget to laugh!

For some men, they have to hold onto all the hair they can....call it something of a desperate measure!
p.s. Happy plucking!

I haven't ever thought it was fair that men were allowed to remain furry.

I know a guy in LaCrosse though that is basically homeless and drinks entirely too much. He went to a party one night that he shouldn't have been at.(college students)he is about 60. Anyway, when he passed out they shaved half of him. He woke up in the morning and was stumbling somewhere. He stumbled past my house and I happened to be outside. I said hello and he walked up. He did not know what had happened. I couldn't believe my eyes. It was too funny. I helped him out and sent him on his way. He didn't look homeless for a couple weeks.

I pluck my eyebrows because if I don't then I have a unibrow!!! LOL I also wax my upperlip. LOL I guess I'm vain. Maybe Men just think they are gorgeous so there's no need to correct nature! Misconception on there part if you ask me!

I like to play...WhooHoo....come play, please.

deleted_user 07/27/2008

Men don't have it so easy. Did you ever try to wax your ears and knuckles? Ouch!

deleted_user 07/27/2008

i trim my eyebrows or they drive me crazy, my nose hair too. i am just glad i'm not like my friend, he has more hair growing out of his ears than i have on the top of my head.

The best one is Andy Rooney from 60 minutes--I can't even concentrate on what he is saying, those freakin' eyebrows have me so fascinated--I think there might be some birds nesting in there--just watching for a little beak to poke out....

My husband's regular hairdresser had closed up shop and he was in desparate need of a haircut. So he went to the hair place in Walmart. The beautician cut his hair and then before she was through buzzed one eyebrow and then the other. He was horrified! LOL Guess there was one woman that was willing to take the action necessary! LOL

deleted_user 07/27/2008

I keep mine trimmed.That seems to work,I also trim some other places as well.

deleted_user 07/27/2008

Yes! Thank God for women taking action!

Well I guess it is as same as a lot of things. Hair today gone tomorrow.

You're post has really made me have a good look at my recovery. 'SURE."

But I do believe I needed to take a good look at my hygiene when I came into recovery and start to take a little pride in how I looked even though I had or have a face only a mother could love.

Things like shaving daily ,brushing my teeth daily. Even brushing what hair I did have and yes trimming those eye brows among a few other things.

Enjoy your day ...

God Bless..
