Okay the Party is Officially Over...Day 13

I knew this day would come but I was hoping it wouldn't come so soon. I'm officially tired of sitting around, having no real reason to get dressed (although I have been getting dressed lately) and having nowhere to go. I'm bored with watching TV (ok not really but I'm tired of it being the way I start my day) and being stuck at home. I still have so much longer before I go to work though so I pulled out an old fashioned post it pad and made a list of things that I can do with my time. I've finished two novels, which is awesome because I haven't had much time to read since BB was born but other than that, nothing productive has really happened, other than healing. Slowly. 

My swelling has gone down but is still there enough to make me feel like I'm not myself. It's just a slow process but I'm still hoping that I can get back to being me before I have to face all the people at work who wrote "you'll be even more beautiful when you get back" in my farewell card. Yes, people seem to think this is a cosmetic surgery, like anyone in their right mind would go through all this crap to fix a crooked smile. I do admit my smile and profile have always bugged me but I wouldn't have gone through all this (5 years plus of braces, rubber bands and this crazy recovery process) just to fix that. I would have let it keep bothering me all my life haha. I am super excited to be able to chew like a normal person though, which should keep me from getting bloated at every meal because I'm swallowing gigantic chunks of food. Yay. 

I picked up BB today at around the same time I would if I was working. It gives HH AND BB a break.   It's just very silent until my HH gets home. It was a really beautiful day again (California is the best) so it was a nice drive. Our house,  and neighborhood in general,  is always swarming with different types of birds and butterflies. As I was pulling out, they were flying back in forth in front of my windshield as if to say, "welcome back!" Ok I have an overactive imagination there but it was nice. 

It was a bummer not to have soup for dinner today but my little sister offered to go to the grocery store for me. Hopefully I can get some ingredients for another amazing soup. I made taquitos, rice and cheesy refried beans for dinner and ugh...I wanted to crunch into one of those SO badly. I considered blending it all into a soup but HH pointed out the obvious, that it wouldn't work. Soon enough, I shall devour everything in sight!!!!
