Beginning of the End?

When is enough, well, enough? I had always assumed that when I got my braces off in high school that I would forever be rid of the orthodontist and braces and the teenage rite of passage.

Of course, that was, until I turned 29. I decided to go have my back tooth replaced, that ironically fell out because of braces as a teenager. Since time had passed, I had to get referred to for orthodontics to open up the space. Which, I had filled in college because I had to get sinus surgery to get the implant. Well, I had the surgery in October and the implant is in, minus the tooth.

If you're confused at this point, well, so was I. But, when I went in to the orthodontist, imagine my shock and horror to learn that I'm deformed! My lower jaw is too short/too far back or whatever and my upper jaw is too long...gum disease and jaw problems were foreseen in my future. It seemed that each time I went to the new specialist, another flaw was discovered. So back to my original question, when is enough enough?

I guess it's not enough until you get to the results that you expect. I just started down the road yesterday. I had spacers put in to prep my mouth for braces! Another 2 year journey has begun. More to come.

I'm Back!

Just got back on, finally! I told you that I was no good at this blogging thing...

It's been a long year of changing jobs, traveling, oh, who am I kidding! Every year is a long year. I finally made the move! I knew that it was a good idea to switch jobs for my mental sanity, but I was too scared to make the move, but guess what, it was the best move.

I now work with glue. As in, Elmer's glue. Right now, I'm still in hardware, peddling wood glue. I just realized yesterday that hardware is probably the worst channel for me. I don't have a house or any desire to be "handy". Instead, I would much rather find some young, single guy to do these things around the house for me. So, why do I always find myself selling hardware goods; from a cashier at Lowe's, to Woods & electrical accessories, to Miracle-Gro & plant food, to Elmer's & wood glue. Is God trying to tell me something? Like, maybe it's time to open a hardware store? Maybe just stock it with all my products that have failed at Lowe's!
