Day 29 - Christmas begins...

Today I was awoken by some inconsiderate builder knocking on the front door at 8 this morning, however I choose to ignore it thinking if it was anyone important they would ring me. Anyway I eventually came down at 10 to only be confronted by the rudest of builders who had torn up the entire front pathway into my home. This I was not even aware was going to happen! So now we are left with a massive hole to entrance of home with boards across that we have to balance on to get in and out!

Luckily mum came to my rescue and we went into town to attempt first lot of Christmas shopping. This actually went better then planned. Although children are much easier then adults so be warned all you adult relatives out there you may be getting lego or barbies!

Anyway we then had lunch out, yes out, I ate a jacket potato with loads of butter and baked beans (thanks ladies at Greggs) and actually managed to do well. Was feeling very full and satisfied for once except still dribbled half of it down my chin without knowing and got a few strange looks brushing my teeth in the toilets and then attempting to put elastics in. I realise I have been so blessed with eating through this ordeal and how quickly I have healed I do stretch the realms of possibility though.

I had my hospital appointment this afternoon and it went very well. My orthognathic surgeon was happy I asked him to take my braces off and he just laughed and said

'You know you need braces on for 6-9 months' 

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! 6-9 months that's way past my birthday. I was not best pleased with this news as you can probably tell, however, typical me, I would not accept this answer. So waited to be seen by the orthodontic team and my lovely consultant said should be able to get them off a lot quicker as my teeth have moved beautifully, so still in hope for that awesome 24th!
