In the days leading up to the much-awaited holidays, I got fortunate enough to have my wisdom teeth pulled. Obviously, it wasn't very fun at all, but it did give me an excuse to take two days off of work and to do absolutely nothing during my time at home. I literally watched 8 movies on Netflix during my comatose state during recovery. This all happened last Wednesday and I am still having issues eating anything crunchy or hard. My left side still hurts, but the right side has healed very nicely. I am so happy to be eating solid food again. I felt that all I could eat before was just sweet, and even I got sick of sugar! I was sucking on tortilla chips at work on Friday--I was so desperate for salt!
Saturday, or Christmas Eve, I was feeling better and was able to eat some bread and other soft foods. Brody went skiing without me in the morning. When he returned we went to Julie's house for Christmas Eve dinner and a family party. It was quite fun and the food was enjoyable (at least what I could eat was yummy).
The next morning, I woke up first, because my insomnia has returned for some reason, and we started to open presents.
We were spoiled by both families...I got a ton of clothes and Brody got a Go-Pro video camera..so now he can film himself skiing or other escapades.
Christmas Day was spent at Paul and Brenda's. We had fun just hanging out with everyone and I even had enough energy to play Just Dance on the XBox Kintec...wow was that a good work out. We did take some pictures after church on Sunday, but they were all on Brenda's camera. I will have to get those from her later.
Now I am back to work..trying to recover from all the festivities...anxiously waiting till my next three-day weekend!
I like the look of the blog... and I'm sorry you had to feel miserable over Christmas. Didn't know you were getting your wisdom teeth pulled... so sad to miss out on all the good food! You look cute though! Hope you have a happy new year! Miss ya.
