I don’t feel like I’m doing very well with this challenge. The past couple of days have been pretty bad. I was sick & up all night coughing, then my husband got it worse than I had it. We still have a whole chunk of wall missing and I haven’t even touched it for clean up because the dust would set me coughing again. Now my car is in for $500 worth of repairs to fuel leaks (seems important to fix). It isn’t dire, but I just feel overwhelmed and I can’t focus on anything. So I’ve been pulling sometimes realizing it and mostly not. I haven’t done well with getting tools to use since I’ve been so busy grabbing kleenex & heating water for tea.
I just received my copy of the documentary “Bad Hair Life” by the now executive director of Trichotillomania Learning Center Jennifer Raikes. I wanted to preview it for inclusion into my BFRB presentation in November. It was quite good but I found that the power of suggestion was pretty strong. I should’ve had a hat on, fidget toys around, and taped my hands behind my back. 
I should not have put it in at 11pm (my normal bedtime) while my defenses were even lower than normal.
See…not focusing or using my tools or making great choices. But I’m hoping this weekend with some good live music back in my home town will help clear my head and get me back on track.
