Bad decision




So I wax. Do you? What do you wax? Well, I wax my body, well my eyebrows and girly mustache, not those other body parts they do in "Brazil." Any who.....
Today was the day. I hadn't waxed in FOREVER and so I decided I'd take a stab at it. I have been doing my own waxing since I got married, I use to live with this wonderful girl, Jamie, and she was a professional, but I got it free. The friendly roommate discount. She did great. She would spend a good 20 min. or more and wax, pluck, and make me a new girl with definition on the brow line. Well, at first I was horrible and took forever. However, through the years and trials, I have gotten better....UNTIL today. I decided to do it at the wrong time and that was the start of a horrible ending to this sad story. Why was the timing wrong you ask? Well, Connelly was awake and getting into, on, around, and breaking EVERYTHING he could find in the bathroom. (Basically, he was eating my tampons and opening up maxi pads one by one. Among other things he could find under the sink.) So my excuse for this horrific tragedy is I was rushed and distracted. As you can see my eyebrows are basically gone on the right side and totally discombobulated on both sides. Neither side matches and this is the ending result. I can't fix it and I just have to wait for them to grow back, and try again. To tell you the truth, this isn't the first time, and I doubt it will be the last. I know most of you are thinking, "Kandy, quit being so cheap and pay for the freaking eyebrows to get waxed." And to all of you, this is what I say, "NO. I'm going to stay "frugal" and just live with my ugly self for a few weeks until they grow back.

Kandy!

your cheapness is one of the many reasons I love you! I have also had some hygiene tragedies due to a mischievous little monster getting into anything and everything in sight! In fact my kitchen table chairs are all laying down or she will move them and use them to climb up things...so im surprised you have any eye brows left...lol

OMW (Utah here: Oh My Word!) There is nothing worse than wearing your own personal mistakes! Like the time I waxed my bikini line and showed up at the pool with massive black-and-blue bruises on the insides of my thighs. Shudder! You're right though, cheap is cheap. Call me next time and I'll bbsit! FREE!

After you told me your story at church, I had to come take a peak at the pictures. Ha ha!
You should wax what's remaining and then pencil them in. You mentioned you don't have any eyeliner, but I bet a marker would do. Oh! And I have some stencils somewhere, I bet we could find a good design. j/k
Anyway, I love that you posted this. And by the way, you do not look ugly, even with half an eyebrow :)

Found a home

Bell has found a new home. After I put her up for FREE on ksl.com, I got a ton of calls. The first little old lady that came to look at her snatched her right up. I was really surprised because Bell snapped at her right off, but I guess things are going well now. The lady called me later in the day, and said, "thank you, thank you. Bell is the dog I've waited for my whole life." She said that Bell just followed her around all day and the neighborhood kids love her. I'm so relieved.

Random thoughts

So this post is a combination of what I've been thinking the past little bit: First, this morning, I didn't do anything with myself because I was going to wear a hat to class, Anatomy 2320, and so I just picked my zits and got Connelly to go to my mother in laws, and left. Yes left without the freaking hat. I didn't comb my hair, didn't put make up on, and left the house red, picked on ugly zit face. What was I thinking. oh well, it isn't like I even talk to anyone in class or having an affair with my teacher so no biggy. Second, I took a test in my anatomy class Monday, and I thought for sure we would get our tests back today. WE DIDN"T. so I have to anticipate my score another 6 days. HHHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...... Connelly must be getting more teeth. He is Onery. He will be cute however about 10 minutes before he goes to be. He is really ticklish and giggly late at night. So then it makes it hard to want to put him in bed because he i
