I just noticed that I haven't updated for a few weeks, and I am on my laptop and have no pictures on here, except one of Edwin and I. Boring! He's not boring, it's just a boring picture.
I'm all better, but I have 2 huge canker sores, they keep getting stuck on my braces, making them tear bigger and not heal very fast. I got a Magic Mouthwash for a really bad sore throat back in October(I think) and it has Lidocaine in it, which numbs anything it touches. It's so funny, my tongue, my lips, everything. But it lets me deal with the pain a little easier. Rinse with salt water every once in awhile and use wax. I think it's either pecans or almonds. But if I eat pecans in certain things it doesn't bother me at all, but if I eat them in ice cream(ben and jerry's butter pecan and tin roof sundae) I'll get them. Or Costco's chocolate cover almonds, which are the best, I get canker sores like none other, but if I eat them in salads or an Almond Joy, doesn't bother me at all. I hate it. But I've also eatten a lot of fruit lately like fresh pineapple and strawberries, and lots of fresh veggies, like tomatoes. Oh-well!
Things are ok right now. They are upgrading some stuff at work in PFL(my area) so everyone on my shift in my group had the option of going to day shift or do TLO(temp. lay off) for 3 weeks. It's really hard to go from night shift to day shift and back again(unless you've tried it, don't tell me I'm just being a pansy). So I decided to do TLO, I didn't want to, I want all the hours I can get, even thought we really aren't busy, I really can't afford to take TLO, I had the option of staying out till March 22, but I can't do it, so I will go back to work in 3 weeks. It will be nice to have a vacation to get somethings I've been putting off, like sewing the edges of my quilt together- that I started last summer. Clean my room really good, I plan on doing a lot of cooking. I only like to cook in the winter for some reason, but it's hard because I have no one to eat it. My mom is always on some random diet and my dad can't eat certain foods. Then people get mad if I take what I make to Shellies kids, because they don't need junk food(I personally like to make dessert stuff). Oh-well. I want to learn how to make homemade tortilla chips, pineapple upside down cake, there are a few others I want to try, I just can't remember right this second, it is 3:30 am. My brain is tired.

Dating Edwin is a lot of fun. We are learning more about each other, just random things. But it's fun. He is so kind and sweet. He's a really good person. That's what I love so much about him.

We got snow and it still hasn't melted. It's been so cold that it will melt during the day, then freeze at night, so whatever is facing north still has snow/ice. That's another bonus about TLO, I don't have to freeze at night when I'm coming home. yeah!
I just made some oatmeal, for some reason it sounded really good and now I can barely keep my eyes open. Wow! I guess I will go to sleep! :) Hopfully this isn't a false tired, because thats what happened last night, I was so tired, but when I went to bed, I was too wired to sleep. I hate that, then I get restless legs, it's horrible. So I go upstairs and lay on the couch till I fall asleep. It helps for some reason. Maybe because I read too much in my bed and when I actually do go to bed, my body doesn't think it's time to sleep. And when I lay on the couch, I always fall asleep, so I need to stop doing that. Oh-well! Night! :)

I get restless legs too. It's super frustrating! There is an herbal supplement my family takes for it that seems to help. Also I have found that if I take a warm bath for a little bit when they get restless I fall asleep easier.
