You can call me Bubba.

I am sitting here with my mouth still paralyzed, I'm sure John loves it. LOL. What a perfect time to blog since I can't talk!

I got my braces put on yesterday.. It is not at all what I thought.

1. I didn't think it would hurt.
2. I thought I would be ok with them.
3. I thought I would look ok.
4. I thought I would be able to eat.. at least somethings.
5. I thought I would be SUPER happy.

Boy was I wrong.

1. THEY HURT!
2. They make me have a little anxiety, kind of like being claustrophobic.
3. I look HORRIBLE, seriously, The Real Housewives would be jealous of these luscious lips...
4. Eating everything hurts, even soft stuff because it means I have to close my mouth.
5. I have been doubting my decision.

I'm sure it will all be worth it.. 2 years is a long time though.

Now let's talk about having 4 teeth pulled in one day.
I did have nitrous, not that it helped. I cried a bunch. Those dang shots to numb you hurt a whole lot. I felt like they were going to pull my face off. It was weird. I was watching Nate Berkus and listening to the Harry Potter dentist talk.. I felt like I was in a cartoon. Now I am relaxing in bed with my pain medicine and a mouthful of gauze wondering if I made the right decision.

Ok, no more whining. :) Hopefully Love Dare and working out will be back on track soon.
