I never update of here because I feel like I never have anything new to say. Anyway...
The last couple months have been pretty crazy. I think I passed all of my finals! Also, I passed all of my skills tests in clinic this semester on the first try! I was pretty excited and happy about that since I didn't even pass one off at all last year. No more Junior fall semester of dental hygiene for me. I think I have it down now!!!
I start to work on patients next semester. If anyone needs their teeth cleaned talk to me!! I have to find all of my own patients. It is a lot cheaper than going to your dentist too!
On a sad note, our dwarf hamster Isabelle died last Thursday. We had her for 2 1/2 years. She was a good pet to us and we'll miss her. I think we will be getting a couple more after we are done traveling for Christmas.
I found out that I have to get jaw surgery this summer. Fun for me. I also have to get braces...again. wahoo!! My mouth is costing us a fortune. Literally like $20,000 after its all said and done. Too bad it couldn't have happened after I start working for a dentist and making some money. Instead it had to come at the poorest time of our lives. Oh well that's life right.
Anyway, I'm trying not to think too much about all of that and Joe's health problems. I'm trying to focus on the excitement of Christmas! We are going to be at Joe's parent's for Christmas this year. I just hope we can get down there with all the snow we've been getting. I have all of my Christmas shopping done. I just have to finish making my sister-in-law's present. We even got Christmas cards this year. Even though I hate Walmart I love their prices. We were able to get 40 photo cards for under $14! The picture on them is the one that is in my header now.
I hope all of you have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!
