obsessions. here is just one of mine. i am completely obsessed with plucking my eye&&brows practically every single day. i don’t know why or how this started. wait, when i was a teen and my mom gave me a set … no, i am kidding. this is something that i just have to do.
i CAN’T STAND for there to be even one stray eye&&brow where it shouldn’t be. i have no idea why i started this, but it is a habit ingrained in me now and for years now. i don’t know why, but when things especially feel cruddy out and about … when i am making this right, i feel calm and peaceful. and family (mostly) leaves me alone while i am in the bathroom updating my plucks. so any of my OCD sisters out there, what are some of your obsessions? and i was even obsessed with taking a pic here to share. i took about 25 of them before i felt comfy with these two to share. i love it with digital camera toys how you can take as many as you like and then delete or keep whatever you want. and if you were wondering, yes, my eyes are blue and beautiful, i know. tee hee. you just can’t tell they are blue here.
hey, well great saturday to all, kathleen 🙂
PS. and if you are wondering why i wrote eye&&brows with the && in them … i keep getting all kinds of internet searches of people looking for variations of “uni&&brow mormons” and “mormons with uni&&brows” and that is just bizarre to me why anyone would search for that??? so, i messed up eye&&brow on my blog post to keep them away from here. make sense? 🙂
Dang sign in! *giggle* You’re looking at me! hahaha. I bet you’d be bothered by my mostly ‘natural’ brows. hehehe. Hrm, let me think about my obsessions.
The first one I think of is how I can’t go to bed without straightening the covers ‘just right’. All lined up, even, smooth. The covers need to also be heavy and soft. Now THAT’s a good bed.
My mother has been telling me for years to pluck my eyebrows, but I just can’t bring myself to do it!!! They’ve even threatened to pin me down and do it for me. I don’t know what the problem is, I don’t have a unibrow or anything 🙂
i am also obsessed with brushing my teeth! 🙂 i like them to feel clean! great day, kathleen
Oh, you would be bothered by mine too! Hmm, obsessions? I wish I had more! When I start a book I get NOTHING done until I finish it.
Hee- if I put the pictures together I can almost see your whole face!
need to have you come and do mine….i am terrible monster brow woman! you are so funny…and sorry about your nail that looks painful!
I am obsessed with lotion and vaseline. Seriously. I cannot go very long without lotioning my hands and feet. And the vaseline? It’s for my nose. Gotta love having dry crusties up there. 🙂
Hi I am obsess with lotion for my feet and hand they feel like they dry and also I use vicks in my nose .now you know you not alone and we probably need help
Speaking of eyebrows, there was a period of time when I actually shaved my eyebrows and penciled them in. Thank goodness it was only a phase.
oh yea,
i am so obsessed with keeping chapstick on my lips all the time. my dental hygentist says my lips are beautiful (no cracks at all is how she judges them!). he he
and so obsessed, too, with keeping lotions on my hands.
gotta stay moist 🙂
ha You are high maintenance! I have wild, yet thin brows. When I used to work at Penneys the makeup sales girls were always trying to pencil them in!
I really should go have them shaped, but, alas, I am quite lazy.
I have blue eyes, too, but bad chapped lips. I think I’ll go hunt some chapstick now…….
I get mine waxed cause I can’t take the long drawn out pain of tweezing. As for an obsession, hmmm…
I have to have my nails groomed at all time.
Fingernails & toenails.
No chipped polish, EVER will be on my hands or feet.
Drives me nuts 😉
I have to have mine waxed. I don’t have the patience for tweezing. I get half way done and get distracted and then I have uneven eyebrows- not cute at all!
I’m obsessed with being “connected”. I have to check my email multiple times a day, and the news websites to make sure there’s no breaking news. I’m such a dork!
yep, i am also soooooooo obsessed with checking email. i have it baaaad — that email addiction. or would that be good? i love being connected to some of my favorite people 🙂

Hehe, I am a bit OCD myself. Every morning I must make sure there are no dirty dishes in the sink, trash cans are all emptied, and laundry is all put away before I can relax and feel I have started the day. My brother was real bad about checking and re-checking to make sure doors were locked at night. Did you ever see the show, “Monk”? Now, that was funny! In one episode someone was after him and while running away, he felt compelled to touch every single pole he passed.
I feel the exact same way about my chin hair. (There aren’t very many of them, but I have to check all the time, because, of course, who wants to be caught with a whisker on your chin when you’re a GIRL?)
🙂 you make me laugh! 😀 I’m not obsessed with that, I pluck as few as possible, just enough to eliminate the unibrow!
I nair my eyebrows, heh, heh. My skin is too sensitive for plucking. So I nair for 3 minutes, rub on some vasaline and go. 🙂
like jen , i also nair my eyebrows.
