Brace Face!

Well, today is the day… just call me brace face for the next few months! LOL! I can’t believe I’ll be going on my third set of braces. Maybe the third time will be a charm, ha!! At least it’s only for a few months. So I think I’ll survive! Just might post some pics, we’ll see, haha! :o) The second time of having braces was totally my fault, because I kept losing my retainer or my dog kept eating them up (seriously). Why dogs have such a fascination with retainers is beyond me, but I can’t completely blame it on him, and you would have thought I would have learned my lesson. But this third set is totally not my fault because the Orthodotist totally failed to tell me I have an option of a permanent retainer on my top teeth, and I do not want to be 80 years old and having to wear my retainer. And my teeth shift horribly when I even go a little while without wearing my retainer. So in order to get my teeth where they need to be for the permanent retainer, I have to go a few months with braces. So there’s the story, ha!

This is the culprit behind the chewed up retainers, haha…


I had to share these with you all. My BFF Melissa has been in a bead making frenzy lately and she was so sweet and made these two necklaces for me…

(Best picture I could get)


Now, how cute are they? I love the cross one and so happy she made me a St. Patty’s day necklace, because I have nothing St. Patty’s, so I’ll have some decorative jewelry to wear now! :o)

Okay, so I've been totally addicted to these CD's, have you heard them yet??? If not, GO out and get them, they are FANTASTIC!!!




This week’s school schedule has been kind of turned around for me. I didn’t have school Monday night and last night I had school, and then I’m off the rest of the week. Thursday I’m going to play hookie because Laura, a friend of mine, is having a lingerie shower. She is getting married in March and I’m totally bummed because I’m not going to be able to make her wedding because of a prior commitment. So I promised myself that I’d at least make it to one of her showers to make up for it. I know she’s going to make one beautiful bride and I’m so excited for her. So the shower will be fun and definitely pictures to follow. Not necessary of the lingerie, that’s kind of personal if you know what I mean, ha, but definitely of the good times with friends :o) So this week has been sort of like a mini-break from school, ha! Again, behind on my blog reading, you all are WAY to quick for me! haha!!

Happy Hump Day everyone!!! :o)
