okay well I don't update this often. In the other section I posted it's been a year!

So here is the progress photos here as well.

Just wanted to update this for the future even though I rarely post in it anymore!

Thanks for all those who have followed my story. And it's hard to believe one year ago it all began but hopefully this time next year I'll be completing this journal for good!

Today I had a big appointment but didn't know until I was there. They took off a bracket and repositioned it a smidge over on my one bottom tooth. I told her that inbetween my two bottom teeth there was a gap that I didn't like and she said, "yes were fixing that today!" So they took the bracket off and didn't know what to expect and it was a quick pop and then of course to put it back on was a pain with the stuffing of the cotton and drying the mouth up! Blah I can't believe people volunteer to get rebraced lol.

Anyways, they put a new wire on bottom along with purple powerchains.....My top wire hasn't been changed in like 3-4 months. I'm wondering if it's a finishing wire I have on and it will remain on until the end? I didn't ask? I hate asking things about the future like when will they be expected to come off? I just don't want to know! Anyways, I still have to keep the elastics in for the crossbite but she said it's all looking fantastic. She asked me if I like my results so far, and I do, and she said good everything is going well we just got to get a few minor things tweaked out!!

I cannot believe one how fast it's going and two that possibly in 6-10 months I could be out of braces already!! wooooohooo!!!! okay getting a head of myself. I'm going to expand it to 10-12 and think the worse but honestly I think I'll be done in 8 months (that's my prediction)! So we'll see. The tooth where they repositioned the bracket hurts but the rest of my mouth is fine!
