He has not been a happy camper with all the dentist appointments. And I've been the same way this summer - not very good about keeping up with all my bloggy friends at all. My son started school on Tuesday and my daughter starts next week...hopefully once we've established a routine (which I am NOT happy about), I'll get a bit more organized.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10019980832742495532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323746891853175496.post-83219075698365964252011-08-18T08:59:00.815-04:002011-08-18T08:59:00.815-04:00You're forgiven.

(In the very very back)<br />2. Orthodontia - been there too. I hate those spacers. They hurt. I used to get my kids KFC mashed potatoes and gravy and a chocolate shake. But smoothies are even better.<br />3. Moles - got 'em. Hopefully none of them lethal. I keep my eye trained but there's so many I forget which one I watched last. I do not have fair skin, however. Just old skin.<br />4. Novel - !!! That excites me so much you have no idea. I'm a little new here so I don't know what kind of novel? Is it a surprise? If not, tell me.<br />5. You are forgiven. Pineapple makes my mouth hurt anyway. Although it's sooo delicious it's almost worth it.
