44 days and counting

I saw my orthodontist today. More of the usual (powerchain change, wire change, more slenderizing) and then it occured to me - this is my last regular appt. until after surgery. I have an appointment at their office on Oct. 16th, but to have molds, xrays, and pictures made. Then two days later I see my OS to have more of the same. Then surgery the next week after that. Wow. The reality is really starting to dawn on me.

I am still making my list of things to get done before surgery and am slowly getting them marked off. Everything from getting my annual physical done to getting the car tuned up. I have a christening gown for my new niece that I need to finish. My dining room needs another coat of paint before I can get it put back together. Lists have been made of the grocery items and non-grocery items that I need to get. I will be ready, it just have to keep plugging away at getting stuff done.
