Hey All!


Hey!
Just writing a quick note to let everyone know that my grill and I are still alive and in one piece! LOL I've been doing a better job of wearing my bands...I must admit I still don't see a huge change :( Kinda scared because I don't want to wear these things longer than I have to! I'm hoping I will have these off by Christmas! Crossing my fingers....and of course crossing my fingers I don't have to go through jaw surgery. And to all my fellow bloggers and their grills who are about to undergo jaw surgery...you are in my thoughts and prayers! I wish you guys the best! I'm sure you guys will do just wonderful and come out with a marvelous smile in the end! xoxo
Summer is in the air and I love it! I love love love summer time, and this summer of 2010 will be my second and last summer with braces!It makes me want to get into shape and I've been hitting the gym and eating cleaner lately! I need to fit into my Capri's that don't fit anymore!! I'm sure I can get into them in a few weeks! Just watch! I know I've been under a lot of stress lately with work and it was consuming my life there for a bit...with no time for my self...but I'm determined to find time for myself and the gym, and of course my Buggy! I've been walking with him more as well.
Oh and this weekend we celebrated my good friend Cassandra's graduation from college with dinner and drinks and a family BBQ on Saturday. It was super fun and there was extra good food! Burgers, hot dogs, steak, salad, cheesecake...so so much food! My grill and I were in heaven! I'm much more comfortable eating fully dressed with my gear...I've learned little tricks along the way. It doesn't compare not even 1% to the first day! I remember that so clearly because it was so hard and funny at the same time! Well...now it's funny, but at the time it wasn't! LOL and while I was there one of the guest had a grill! A fully-polished, blue-banded, bedazzeled Grill! I get so excited when I see someone else with a grill! A fellow Griller! LOL She felt totally comfortable in her gear, sporting a smile all through the evening so it made me feel extra comfortable! I love people who arn't afraid to show their be-dazzels! It empowers me to do the same...so to all you out there who do the same: Thank You! :) and keep on Smiling!!!
My teeth have been extra sensitive this time around. I think it's because my grill underwent a major detail...with the cleaning and tightening all at once. My next ortho appointment is in August, the second I think. But will be posting before then...just cause.

My cousin Neddy and I in Las Vegas two weeks ago! He's such a nerd...but I love him!










Much Love <3
