not being lazy

I'm not being lazy with my posts, I just have nothing exciting to report.  As usual.  Man, who knew braces would be so boring?  (Ok, put all your hands down - we all knew this!)  I have an ortho appt on Monday, at which time I will hopefully be referred to my surgeon and we'll set a date.  I would cross my fingers, but that makes it rather difficult to type... :)  Till then...

huh, who knows...

Amazingly, my stress level over the weekend went through the roof, but the cold sore never quite materialized.  It felt like the start of one on Friday, but now there's really nothing happening there.  I'm not complaining, mind you!  Just a bit confused. 

I hope everyone is staying warm!  We're experiencing wonderful 45 mile-per-hour "breezes" with snow at the moment...  You can barely see across the street!  I'm staying in tonight... :)

1 Year!

I got my braces one year ago today!  Figures that I'd pick a leap year, huh?  366 days down...

And as an anniversary present to myself, I'm developing a cold sore on my lip.  Ugh!  I haven't had one for years and it hurts!  Totally stress produced, I'm sure.  But still.  Ugh!
