Spare time, on surgery time.

I got my widsom teeth pulled yesterday.
All four of them.
Thankfully, my recovery is going well.
I haven't looked like the darnest chimpmunk.
I was stuffed with gauze yesterday, but I'm gauze free today.
In a few, I gotta go do a couple of the 20 steps to keep me on the path of recovery.
I was told I need to brush my teeth, which freaks me out with the idea of stiches in my mouth. I will give it a soft attempt and see how it goes. But its also really gross not brushing teeth. Yick.
Been living on strawberry applesauce and Frostys. Its an alright diet for me:) Today I am upgrading to Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream. Mmmm.

Now, the thing about this whole widsom teeth, I had to take time off work. And I would love to use my spare time to scrapbook. But thats sad, it seems like the only time I get spare time, is when I have sugery. How sad. I'm hoping that after my bubble bath in a few,I will be well enough to scrapbook. I have to finish 3 scrapbooks by Monday night.
1. Scrapbook for my best friend Lindsey and I...I'm making two, exact copies. One for her, and one for me.
2. Scrapbook for my other best, Kate. A bleated birthday gift. Her birthday was in December, after we all went home for break. She did mention to me that she would love to have a scrapbook of us from me. Tends to be what I make for all my girlfriends. This one should be a little easier because it is a cordinating scrapbook, where I picked out one theme of paper to use. I will just have to be creative with embellishments and titles.

Speaking of my break from college life. It got extended a lot longer. Meaning I am taking a semester off and then transferring to a different school in the fall, one that is closer to home. Lots of reasons why. Has NOTHING to do with the school I was at, I LOVED LOVED it there, but unfortunatly, life didn't pan out so I could have everyway I want. But I recently discovered a very good friend of mine from high school is also transferring to the school we are both going to in the Fall of 2008. So we are looking at rooming together, getting an apartment. That is exciting and scary!

Okay, I'm off to rinse with warm salt water, brush my teeth, take a nice warm bubble bath while reading The Nanny Diaries. Then hopefully I can bear sitting up and watching a movie or two while scrapbooking :). Gotta get those books done!

Blessings,

P.s. Does anyone read this? If so, I'd love to hear from you!
