Dreaming of a White Strips Christmas Monday, November 15, 2004
Lots of stuff.
Now that I am a non-smoker I decided to get myself some of those Crest White Strips. You know, the 7 bucks off coupon that was advertised on this site? Well I took that offer. Plus they were on sale at the store I bought them from, so I ended up saving 12 bucks on them. Whoo Hoo! So I have them on my teeth right now. I never had to wear braces or retainers so having something foreign in my mouth is irritating as all get out. Ok, that just sounded horrible. You know what I mean. I don't like it. However, I'll have a whiter smile is just seven days. I should post a before and after shot, huh?
I have been a Christmas fanatic lately. I bought M&M's with little sayings on them. They are very cute. Since I will be hosting Christmas this year for my family, I have been buying a little bit here and there. Like this shopping trip I bought the corn. It's a small start, but hey... I do what I can. Being that I just bought 12 christmas presents it's hard to afford much more. On the good side, I only have about five more people. I wish I was done! Only three more checks until Christmas!
Lets see. I made a huge step the other day with Kumbi. I have always felt a little sick to my stomach when he brought his child around me. This is the child that was conceived while he was dating me. He came into my work with her and his other two step-children to take them swimming. I immediatly avoided them. Then I sat and thought about how the child shouldn't be the one that suffers. So I did what I could to made peace with her. It took literaly all my mental strength, but I went up to her, kneeled down, and held my arms out to her. She's about 1 and a half (I think) and she walked over to me, looking from me to her dad to make sure it was ok. I then said, "Hello there." I then picked her up. I took her over to the clubhouse and gave her some ice cream. After that move I was her best friend. She's adorable. She's very well behaved and trusting. It took a lot to make the move, but I had to do it. I was sick of feeling sick to my stomach when I saw them together. Of course, it's sick of jealousy. All I want is to start a family.
So the guy from the dating service and I are going to meet on Saturday. I pray it works out. Him and I have so much in common. It's almost scary. I really thought Keith and I had a lot in common. However, this guy and I think so much alike. I hope it all works out. He teaches in Detroit and that a bit of a drive from where I live, but we'll see what happens. I really think it's going to work. I just have this feeling.
Ok. well it's almost time to remove these strips from my teeth. I don't think I have swallowed since I put them in. I am a bit nervous to, even thought they say they are safe. I hope everyone has a great night.
