Hey Ken, Just checking up on ya.
Your teeth are really looking sporty with that new color scheme and your gums really look nice too. Amazing differance even since you quit smoking and at your next piero app. I bet they will notice too. I was going to point out that your 1 year anniversary is coming soon too eh! :-V (AUGUST 1ST ) :-V I bet they will be coming off sooner than you think because of all the big changes they have seen lately.They really do look nice!
How's the Vega coming? Will you have it back for the coming weekend?
Have you seen those cute little fawns lately?
:-88 Cheers,-Tom :-88

Hey Ken, glad to hear things are moving well (if slowly) for you. Nice to hear that we share something else in oHIo-- deer in our back yards. It is always a plasure to see them even though they eat our favorite flowers and veggies sometimes. I gotta remember they were here before we bought the land.
It's all in how you see yourself!

I've been trying to find your exact perio history but haven't been lucky enough as to find the nitty gritty. If I wasn't on plain dial up then maybe I could find it faster but I'm going to be a pain and just ask you to repeat yourself or point me in the right direction.

Ken,
You are doing great in so many ways. It's nice to see that you have your midline back! It isn't going to hppen for me, but I can live with that.
We have a 16 yr old house guest from AZ here this week-- he loves the TREES and the DEER!

Hi Ken,

Glad to see things are progressing well! Your journal is a joy to read; exremely thorough and detailed, and it certainly is educational for us novices and relatively new members of this forum :!:

Guess I'm like Laurie -- I read your journal from the beginning but it seems as though there's some pieces I haven't seen regarding your perio issues. Would be interested in seeing that additional history if you wouldn't mind pointing me there!

Keep up those fabulous journal entries -- you could write a book! :-#)

:D :D :D Glad to throw ya a big party Ken!And that burnout looks like it would be fun as hell to do! I bet your still smilin! I bet the passers by just hung out their windows when you lit them up! Do you use anything like bleach and water anymore or is it pure H.P.? Is that a whiff of smoke I see by your left header? Hows the Vega?
Those 12 hr shifts are a bummer. I worked 10's 7days a week for 3 months a while back and I liked the money but not having anytime for yourself sucks.
Cheers- T.I.
