Looks like the "I"s have it and the beard is going to get longer. I think I will set a new goal for myself to grow till at least Feb. 1st and then re-evaluate.

Thanks to everyone for the constant and unwaivering encouragement you have given me. It really does make a difference.
Goes to show the power of the beard board! Now if we could just find a board to help with all of life's major decisions so we'd be sure not to screw up, we'd be set! 

Cheers to the decision to grow for four more weeks!
