My Boobs Were Not Harmed In The Making Of This Post

The other day my co-worker went to do bookkeeping for one of our clients, who just so happens to own a Mardi Gras store. She came back with a little gift for me. What do you think?

I think they're pretty cool. And totally me. (And I didn't even have to flash my knockers to get them. Not that I would do that since I'm a local. I have a garbage bag full of beads in the garage. I don't need to flash to get them. That's what the tourists are for.)

In other news involving blood, Speedy has to get 4 teeth pulled today. It seems he has gigantic beaver teeth and a small jaw. The orthodontist said his baby teeth are blocking his adult teeth from coming in. And man if y'all could have seen his x-ray. It looked like a cross between Predator and Alien up in that kids mouth.

The doc is gonna pull 4 baby teeth today and hopefully his adult teeth will be able to come through. If so, he won't need braces until he's about 12 or so. *fingers crossed*

These teeth will be numbers 7-10 that the tooth fairy will be paying for. 10 teeth already and he's only 7! The tooth fairy is about broke... and sometimes forgets to wake up and do their job...

On the way to school this morning I told Speedy that my birthday was next month. He asked me how old I was gonna be and I said dun dun duuuun 30! He then said "Oh that's not old momma. It's not like you're 76! THAT'S old!". Thanks for making me feel better child. Now don't forget it in a few years when you DO tell me I'm old.

In news that DOES make me sound old, I'm trying to crochet fingerless gloves. I can't read patterns unless they're super simple so this is a bit tricky for me. I made one glove last night and mid glove I decided I didn't like the stitch so I switched it up.

I need to modify some stuff but once I get it the way I like it, I'll show y'all. And maybe do a giveaway or something. I'm sure y'all will be lining up for that one huh?

I'm sure glad this post didn't make me seem like an old lady.

From experience.....do not put braces on him this young! Trust me, he will have to have them again when he is in high school. Teeth still move no matter what! They told us my step daughter needed to have them when she was 8, I thought they were nuts! They said that her teeth would not be fixable with braces if we waited for all of her teeth to fall out! Let me tell you, THEY WERE WRONG! we waited until she was 12 to put them on and not even a year later here teeth are almost perfect! And they were WAY messed up before! My experience was BAD with them. I swear that it is just a way for them to make money out of you twice! because they know you will have to have them again! I had a friend that had them THREE times because she had them on to early as a kid! Ok obviously just my opinion! Off my soapbox now!

That is a nice necklace. It's worth a hooter shot.

Tiffany!
Fingerless gloves? I'm SO jealous and I want to see them!
Poor Speedy, I hope he has a quick recovery :)

Oh, and ditto what Heather B said.
That happened to my sister with BOTH her boys and she's had to pay for braces FOUR times.

Hope Speedy is feeling better soon. Maybe ice cream will help??!!

Yeah . . . your bewbs look huge in that picture! I can't imagine any angle that would make my boobs look big. Guess I should avoid beads - that might call attention to them!

Fingerless gloves? Kewl! I want to enter that contest!

I live in the area too, so sometimes I always think of walking around the house throwing the beads I got from the previous year at my son. He's old enough now to know better, which sucks.

And I want fingerless gloves!
