MarciLouWho's Excellent Braces Adventure

[LeahRuth]

Your teeth have made so much movement. And you've got my favourite colours going on in there

Hi Marci. I joined since your last post prior to yesterday. I just read through your thread. Thanks for the chuckles. I think in your humorous tone, but I am not so elegant at conveying it!!

Your teeth are coming along nicely. Back on Valentine's Day you posted that the purple (I think) ligs were shaking up your OCD...so now you have pink and orange...how's that working for you? I have to admit...all those color choices do seem like fun. I have Damons and don't have ligs....of course they do allow their use, and I'm only 2 weeks in, so only time will tell.

Keep up the entertaining posts!!

Hi Kipepeo!

Thank you! I have just now noticed that my teeth are actually lining up in a nice conga line like they're supposed to! Yay!

As for the ligs, I had not posted a picture of the power chain and ligatures I had after the silver and before the pink and orange. . .it was plum crazy (dark purple) and Mediterranean Blue (deep teal color). I really enjoyed those colors and got lots of positive comments, so I figured I'd just stop worrying and go with it, you know? I still feel a compulsion to match my ligs but now they're power chains and I have no idea why that makes it different but I just try to relax and enjoy. . . embrace the color. Heh.

Next time, I'm going all blue to please my five-year-old. I have to wear these for approximately a year and a half longer, so I have plenty of adjustment appointments left to try out more colors. The pink and orange are so much fun - and it helps that my elastics for daytime are also neon colors. I'm really actually having fun with all this. Except when my teeth hurt, but heck, a couple of ibuprofen tablets and I can take care of that.

Thank you, Kipepeo and Ruth for stopping by and reading. I appreciate your time and your comments.

Looking good Marci. I planted my garden with orange and pink flowers this year too. I will never be cool enough to do that in my mouth. LOL I'm too shy.

Hope you are doing okay and feeling better!! Not sure the ambulance thing sounds like much fun

Hi there, Elle! I've missed your typeface.

Yeah, it was a whole bunch of No Fun At All. It will henceforth be referred to as my Unfortunate Incident. I'm still sort of waiting for an outcome, too. But suffice it to say, I completely forgot I had braces for two days. So there's that. Heh.

Soo good to see you!
