The Eyebrows of a 59 year old

I've come to realize over the years that my body is my body and I'm glad I've got it.  I'm healthy, compact, close to the sidewalk, and everythings works pretty good.  I'm almost proud of my pretty good hair, great eyebrows, excellent cheekbone structure, and everything south of there is what it is.

Now taking care of my great eyebrows has become a "thing" since I started wearing glasses 6 years ago.  I can't see my eyebrows to groom them - I have to ask a member of the sighted population to take care of them.

But a couple of days ago, the light was good so I thought I would check for strays by looking through my glasses as if they were magnifiers and to my shock and horror discovered MY EYBROWS ARE GROWING SIDEWAYS DOWN MY FACE!!!  This is not good!  If you only have 3 things you think are good about your body and one goes sideways on you (literally) it makes for a very short list........

LOL--I know the feeling! But I guess the good thing is that we never expected our moms and grandma's to have perfect eyebrows, so why should we have these unrealistic goals for ourselves?

WOW - I have really been letting myself go, because I'm only 46 and it is already happening!!! Although painful I am a huge fan of cosmetic micro-pigmentation- Yep- Tattoo them suckers on and while you're at it the eyeliner is a nice touch as well!

Thanks for keeping me laughing.
Lots of Love PKG
