My braces weren't taken off yesterday! Boo!
But my Orthdontist did notice the gap that was forming between my front teeth and put a power chain on. It's completely clear, so it's barely noticeable... but already, just one day after it was put on, I'm noticing the gap that was there between my two front teeth is almost gone!!! :)
My mid-lines are still about 3mm off, so we are just waiting for those to come together (my orthodontist thinks about 2 weeks to a month is all I need) I'm really getting anxious for my mouth to be Braces-Free!!!

Tonight I am going bed shopping. Yes. I need a new bed! I have been sleeping on the same Futon bed for the last, give or take, 7 years! I think it's about time to take the plunge and buy a REAL matress bed!!! I went to Sears with my friend Katz a few weeks back, and we had a lot of fun trying out the different beds! I am going to take Collin with me tonight, and I actually DO plan on buying one tonight!!!
(I'm getting quite excited of the prospects of sleeping on a brand new pillow top matress! :)

**5 years of service**...
I knew there was a team luncheon scheduled for today but I didn't know what it was for or where we were going to be at until the meeting this morning. Turns out it was for ME to celebrate my "5 years of service" with my company! They took us all to the top of the Calgary Tower for a wonderful lunch! :) I ate too much... but what's new? lol
I also got a pair of Bushnell binoculars as a gift of my achievements. (They will come in handy on my hikes, I'm sure!)
