Some days are just like that!!


Sometimes life just doesn’t go the way you want.  Like this morning when I was in a hurry to go somewhere, and I decided to hurry and wax my eyebrows.  Well, the wax is almost gone, so it was a little hotter and drippier than usual when I heated it up.  In all the time I have been waxing I have never had this happen -  but as I was waxing my eyebrow the wax dripped and landed on my eyelashes!  Yikes!  I tried to hurry and get it off before it hardened, but it is designed to harden quickly, and it does!  There I was with half my eyelashes on one eye glued together in one blob!  How was I going to get out of this?  Sure, I could rip them out, but that didn’t sound like a very appealing option.  Finally I decided to try to heat the wax up with hot water from the tap.  I kept splashing my eye and trying to soften and pick the wax off.  I finally got it all off after about 10 minutes, and I still have some eyelashes left! (maybe half).  Better than none!  My mother always said you have to suffer to be beautiful.  Sometimes that is more true than others.  
I hurried to get dressed.  As I was putting my pants on I noticed that my jeans had a hole in them.  I figured it was low enough in the pants that nothing would show through that wasn’t supposed to, and I wasn’t going anywhere fancy anyway.  On my way out the door I realized that I needed shoes.  As I sat down to put the shoes on I realized that indeed, something was showing through the hole in my jeans!  What to do? What to do?  I didn’t have another pair of jeans that would work at the moment.  So I grabbed a needle and thread and sewed the hole up while I was wearing the jeans.  No, it did not look pretty, but at least I didn’t sew my unders to my jeans or poke myself.  I consider that a bonus on a morning like this.  Some days are just like that.
