Around 1:30 we left for my 2:40 p.m. appointment with tooth-man. At 1:40 p.m. I was stuck in a 5 mile back up on a closed I-80 after a policeman shot and killed someone after a traffic stop. We SLOWLY make our way to a closed-for-reconstruction-road that they re-open for us (and all the other I-80 traffic after 3 hours). I get there only an hour late. We see the doc. I get to have 1 hour of freedom, 3 times a day this week! NO latex in mouth - makes tongue itchy (BAD). So I have real rubber bands. I am checking out the radio stations and even call my seester, Holly, in NYC to have her check the internet about road closures. No much news. So I take the back way home. SLOWLY. SLOWLY. SLOWLY.
The girls and I are GREAT travelers, but after spending almost 6 hours in the car today together, we were glad to get home and stretch our legs.
Here are the COOL X-rays of my mouth/head BEFORE and AFTER surgery. You can actually see (if you look close) the 10 mm new gap in my jaw. And now I have a chin! COOL!
And see how the teeth line up now, and the bottom front teeth aren't pushed up anymore! COOL!
