my camera battery is dead.
i will buy a new battery tonight, but no pics for today. we got quite a bit of work out this week which is great. my last boat customer tonight was awsome- he came in with a huge basket of chocolates and beer for mike. i had his name in my head wrong for the whole last month though so i am a big dork (nothing new here) and was embarrassed about that. he was happy with the job though (it did turn out really nice). it has been another crazy week of ups and downs but i am handling it better. i went to the doctor yesterday to get refills on my hormones so that i won't be caught without any due to lack of effort on my part. i feel so incredible physically since i have been taking them. i have dropped two pants sizes (i am an 8 now) but gained 2 pounds. i am 162 at the moment which is huge to me, but i am not going to worry about the weight as long as i look good and feel good. i have some pics of ian with his retainers to post- jovi- didn't mean to make you feel left out..... ian has really been feeling self-concious about his mouth because his teeth have huge gaps between them and he has an overbite. it looks like his teeth are too big for his mouth. we wanted to start braces, but he still has 12 baby teeth so we had to do the double retainer thing for the next couple of years. he has blocks on them so that he can't move his jaw back to correct his overbite and the wires to bring the teeth back in. he is a tounge thruster so we are having to reteach him how to swallow with his tounge placed on the roof of his mouth instead of against his teeth pushing them out. he knows that the benefits will outweigh the pain and annoyance of them. owen and jule will most likely have them too, although their teeth are not like ians. i have mounds of patio furniture to sew up and some car seats to get out, but i am hoping for the next wave of boats to drop off. i am down to two today. we got 4 out this week. wish us luck!

ah, thanks for the retainer info! zion has an overbite, too, tho his is apparently just the way his jaw has grown (ie no external factors like tongue thrust or thumb sucking etc). we're looking at braces for all kids as well :)
wtg on the health stuff! i really should be more fit. sigh.
