Minor slip up...

The slip up wasn't enough for me to start this goal over but I was still really mad at myself.  It's my own fault because I had way too much idle time and I kept running my fingers over my eyebrows andI found a couple that really hurt.  The one thing I did do was make myself look in the mirror when I did it.  The good thing about that was that I was able to control it.  Luckily a couple of them were in the out-of-bounds area so it sort of helped me in a way, but I was still really pissed at myself.  Just shows that I really need less idle time.  It sucks because I really like to read so I have to cut that back :(  Anyway, I'm continuing this goal since it was very minor and keep going from here.  I'm still really proud of the progress I've made.

I am proud of you too! It\'s so hard. I was just sitting here at night thinking how stiff and hard my lashes feel and how I really want/need to pull them out. I know pulling one will feel absolutely wonderful. But, I know I won\'t stop at one. Ugh! Some days are definitely better than others. Hang in there. I will too. =D Hugs.

Thanks Kathy!!! I think that it\'s getting harder because I\'m not used to having them anymore so I keep running my fingers over them. Just need to make myself more aware of what I\'m doing. We\'ll get through this!!! Hugs back :)

Pulling only the ones that hurt will help you keep the rest growing. I haven\'t stopped pulling (plucking), however, I limit it as much as possible. Good for you being aware of it. Don\'t have to stop reading, just switch hands to something like a ball, towel, washcloth, or whatever works. I did that, and have been able to read!
