Wisdom Teeth

The teeth on the top are my upper wisdom teeth and had been taken out some time ago. The teeth on the bottom are my lower wisdom teeth and were taken out yesterday afternoon. They had to be broken before they could be pulled out. I have very stubborn teeth.

Tomorrow

Tomorrow I have work from 7am to 2. Then I go strait to the dentist to have my lower wisdom teeth removed. I have the next 2 days off, to recuperate, clean my room(which is a ridiculous mess)and do some major school work.

A New Computer

I have made my first investment with the money I earned with my first job. (My parents generously offered to pay half, even so it was a pretty penny) A laptop computer. I figure with my going of to collage in the sometime near future it would be a good thing to have.

At first I bought a Gateway just like the one that my Dad has. I talked to a friend to see if he would optimize it for me, and he suggested that I not get a Gateway, that I would be better off to go with an HP, or an Accer. Sense I had not opened the box I returned the Gateway and ended up with this Dell. So far I have been very pleased with it.

Even though I don't technically need a computer to study, I have all the books, it is still much easier to be able to look up something if I need clarification, and with my own laptop I can do that from home or go down to the library or coffee shop for a change of scenery.

I Told You So

Did I not tell you to be careful when driving. 4 days, 4 days after getting his licence Jon-Paul has totaled the van. That has got to be some kind of record.

Now it Was Not His Fault. He was rear ended when waiting to turn into our housing division. Everyone is OK. The van is not.

I was out front giving the shrubs a hair cut when Naomi comes dashing down the street towards the house with a look of panic on her face calling for Mom. They we're in an accident and everyone was OK. We rushed down there. Naomi had been sent to get Mom because they did not have a working cell with them and Jon-Paul being the driver could not leave the car.

So sometime in the near future we will be getting ourselves a new fuel efficient car.

Warning, teenage drivers

After gathering all the needed paperwork Jon-Paul has at last, his drivers license. So I suggest that you be careful while on the road.

Garden Greens

This is what I got from the garden in the way of the mixed greens that I planted. Not much. Mom used them in the salad for dinner and they ended up being very bitter, at least to my taste.

Happy (Late) Birthday

Jon-Paul's birthday was on the 11th. Happy Birthday. This is the jacket that I made for him. It is suede that I got at OHCO (a fabric store that sometimes sells fabric by the pound insted of the yard) for a VERY good price. The jacket is a little bit big (I was unsure exactly how the pattern would compare, and I figured to big is better than to small) but that just leaves room for a sweater underneath when the cold really sets in.
