Carissa's Derby Box

So, Carissa had an assignment this week to make a Derby box float for their parade tomorrow at school. I think I went through 3 shoeboxes before finally deciding on what to do. Rob helped greatly too. I tried putting her barbie car underneath so it would have more movement with wheels but it wouldn't work. After some tears, we decided no wheels and she would just have to drag the thing a little harder. I bought her some supplies this morning after gym and work and she pretty much did it herself. I helped with some of the foil and tape and of course, gave a small amount of advice so it wouldn't too look cheesy. But, all in all, I think she did great. She's very proud of it and must tell Mrs. Hill she loves her on anything she can. What a great teacher she's been this year!

On a side note, I will be having some of my gums numbed tomorrow due to sensitivity before they can clean them. I'm so stinking scared that it's ridiculous. It's actually ruined my sleep today and I can't get it out of my mind. Please pray for me!!!!!!!

Going to the Dentist

So, I'm going to the dentist this morning. I haven't been in years because we haven't had dental insurance. I've VERY nervous. I'd rather go the gyn, to be honest with all of you. I've always taken care of my teeth but now that I have sensitive ones that have exposed roots (more than you probably want to know), I despise going. I used to love the way they felt when they were clean. Now, I feel like I'm going to puke. After that I'm going to have lunch with Kim P and then off to Swag's with Rob to find some new tennis shoes to workout in. We both desperately need them. So, to get through the dentist at 9am, I'm going to think about lunch with my friend and getting some new shoes. I sure hope that helps!

First Day of Blogging

Okay, I, like Val, have decided to give in and try this blogging thing. I can't promise that I will have new posts daily as I work 3rd shift and sleep most days. I hope that it will improve over time. Please just be patient with me as I also learn how to create this. I will begin by saying this is a "works in progress"! :-)
