New Orleans

My brother, sister in law, Brady and my dad are all in New Orleans to go to the Sugar Bowl. Michigan is in the Sugar Bowl and my brother likes to go to whatever bowl they go to each year. They keep sending pictures and it looks like they are having so much fun. I was bummed as I really wanted to go but I had to go back to work today. They got their picture taken by a reporter from Detroit and it was on the Internet. It was pretty cool.

My brother got the house in Ann Arbor they put an offer on. Pretty excited for them. Went to go see it last week and it is very beautiful. They have some time to sell their house before they to close on it. Will post a picture of soon.

Tray 1

Ok, I am on tray 1 of my invisalign treatment. I thought it was very uncomfortable getting them in for the first time. They have to put these "buttons" on your teeth that are permanent until the end of your treatment. They remind me of fangs. And the trays hurt getting them on and off. I thought I would rip them apart or crack them apart. Then some of the edges were cutting the inside of my mouth. A week went by and I couldn't stand it any more, as it was the holiday and my dentist was closed, I got a emery board out and filed the rough spots and it worked. I was shocked. After that it has been a breeze. I actually like them in. Sometimes I forget they are in there. Plus its nice as they fit so snug that it feels good to have them in there.

So of course I have to get them changed every two weeks and I get a new one this Thursday. Ugh here we go again. Its really not so bad. Just the first couple of days its some pressure.

I accidentally slit the bottom tray with my finger nail trying to take it out yesterday. But its not bad just a tiny slit and my dentist office said it would be fine till I come in on Thursday.

Thursday should be a breeze......

Happy New Years

Happy New Year!!!! I went to get my hair done yesterday. I got it all chopped off and colored brown. What a difference. I love it. I met my husband and my friend Stephanie and her daughter at the mall to shop a bit. Then we went to dinner at the Elephant Bar. We went to the movies to see New Years Eve after dinner. It was a great movie. I loved it. Had a very nice night New Years Eve. It is going to be another great year ahead.
