The first half of this week has been crazy – filled to the brim with stuff. Like buying this car. It’s the “Celebration Edition” which means it comes with all sorts of cool gadgets and looks kind of like the inside of a cock pit. Dan is pretty much in love with it. It’s still hard to believe we’re “Buick People” now but it’s a really nice car. I’m glad we were able to swing for it – especially with the winter coming, nobody will have to be stranded at home, etc. It will also make a really nice car for longer drives, so comfortable and so much storage. It has one of those radios that tells you the song and artist playing – so cool – and this thing called a Heads Up Display that projects how fast you are going on the windshield. And a million other things that are probably old news to everybody else, but it’s the newest car we’ve ever owned so we’re pretty impressed (2004 LeSabre if you were wondering and didn’t feel like clicking the link).

Then yesterday was the dreaded Dentist Day. All things considered, it went pretty well. The tooth is out, yadda yadda. But even with the recovery going well, it’s still recovery. One good thing is I don’t have to limit my diet to liquids, but it does need to be things VERY easy to chew, like apple sauce, soft pastas, fish, etc. Last night I had macaroni and cheese. Oatmeal for breakfast. But it takes so long to eat that it just isn’t very enjoyable. And I’m tired. I don’t know if that has anything to do with the dentist, but I guess when you add in the newborn baby it isn’t terribly surprising. This is nothing unexpected, I’m not looking for help or feedback, just journaling this moment in time, you know?

Now it’s Wednesday and I just need to recover, rest and get through the week. Do laundry. You know, the usual. Boring, but whatever. It beats another trip to the dentist. And Monday is Labor Day which means Dan will have the day off – that is good news! I guess that’s about it. I’ll try to take some pictures of the new car sometime, I know you’re all terribly anxious to see that – lol – it’s definitely not the prettiest car, but we love it just the same.

How is everyone else’s week going?
