I'm starting to stress ...

Again it is the TEETH

Jaw surgery is coming up ...

It could be one or two jaws ... I'll know Monday.

I will be eating next to nothing unless I can get it through a syringe or a straw.  Even a straw may be off limits ... no sucking.

I'm looking rather fit for me ... even sort of thin.

I may be a waif by the end of February.

A bikini this summer may be something I may just consider.

Jaw surgery may not be so bad.

Maybe ...

Good luck with your appointment. I hope you get some good news. Thinking about you and sending out positive thoughts.

This sounds terrible...hopefully you will have some good pain meds, although those can sometimes make you feel like pooh too.
really though, on the upside, something like THIS is what I need to get my butt a bit on the smaller side.
terrible, I know. But I try to look for the silver lining.
good luck.
Your girls are gorgeous!!!

I hope this surgery goes as well as possible, E. Maybe you should try to fatten yourself up a bit over the next few weeks to make up for what you are probably going to lose in February? ;)
YIKES! Why in the world are they doing this to you? What's wrong? God bless you, girl. God cover you with His peace.

What a way to lose weight, though! Good luck on your appointment!

I guess the bikini thing is a nice way to look on the bright side; I'm just sorry you have to be uncomfortable now.

Aw honey, it'll be okay. You'll probably be totally sick of protein shakes, but do you have any other options? I doubt you'd put yourself through jaw surgery if you didn't absolutely need it.

And when you can eat 'real' food again, just put the APB out there and all your bloggy friends will send you care packages full of calorie laden treats! :)

Good Luck! If you need me to blend a big mac for you just let me know.

Momto5minnies meets the Pioneer Woman!

I read her blog and knew that she was coming into town for her book signing and I thought about going, but I also knew it was the day that I was getting my braces off (MONDAY 11/9). On Sunday night before, my husband made a quick trip to Walmart and brought home a flyer saying how Ree Drummond (The Pioneer Woman) was coming the next day. I'm not sure if my husband was more excited about me getting my braces off the next day or having me MEET THE PIONEER WOMAN. I guess I really did want to go, but now I HAD TO GO! Monday was a crazy day ... jitters in the am 4.6 mile run to make me feel relaxed (it was also my longest run yet) drop the 12 year old at her homeschool art class quick trip to Walmart (to see if there were Pioneer Woman cookbooks ... no luck, but my husband picked me up a few ... I'm gifting some for Christmas). home to throw a pot roast in the crockpot braces removal at 11:30am dentist visit at 1pm usual afterschool chaos of swim team home for a 30 minute rest wa...

A scattered post ...

I throw myself into stuff all the time.  It can be anything from the start of a swim season, a new school year, the election, a vacation, an exercise routine etc.  I'm kind of in a phase where I really don't know what my focus should be.  I turned on the television and honestly, I have no idea what is on this fall season ... NO IDEA AT ALL .  If I watched television in the past few months, it was something kid related or Fox News. I NEED A NEW FOCUS. My current thoughts  ... reading a fictional, just for fun book stepping up my exercise routine thinking about our Christmas wish lists and shopping baking more ... I really am slacking in this area ways to save money so that we can get a new (second) washer and dryer for the upstairs (not a fancy kind because this would mostly be used by my oldest two children)... I actually have hookups. I wonder if a lot of people go through a sort of "lull" period this time of the year.  Surely it doesn't last long with the start ...

Not a lot has changed ...

As a puppy he always liked a warm spot. We call Comet our "close talker" (from Seinfeld) because he is in your face and always a little too close for our comfort level. The girls don't seem to mind, but it can be a little annoying for my husband and I. Really, he is a fabulous dog. He listens well and is so gentle with everyone. *We don't let Comet on furniture ... except for the playroom/schoolroom couch. There he enjoys relaxing and being read to by one of the girls. SPOILED POOCH!
