braces suck, swaps are cool

i am in pain. i just got back from my brothers office. my lower front 4 teeth have been pulled on, pushed in and tightened today. i had involuntary tears starting to come down that's how painful this was. {braces suck} but on the bright side of things, i got my favorite things swap today from lyn whose from texas. and well, she ROCKS!! look + drool over the goodies she sent me! {black floral tote, big red pop, zero candy bar + some lemon heads, mary kay products, tons of paper/stationary/note cards for list making + a gratitude notebook, which i desperately in need of at the moment, yummy recipes, a texas book, a fantastic pen + some gum. ham might snag the gum from me, that's his favorite kind}

feels like christmas in july. this is why i love swaps. though at the moment i need to bust some butt in order to get my other 2 swaps out in time. i will have finished photos when all is sent out.
