You are beautiful.
I love you for who you are.
Everyone has imperfections. That’s how God made us, and what makes you unique.

I had four gum grafts last April. Yesterday, I learned that I have a bit of recession on one of those teeth again. The doctor says not to worry, but my suspicion is that the retainers I still (!) wear are to blame. I’m going back to the doctor in a couple of weeks for him to check.

If it is the retainer, I don’t know what I’ll do. If I don’t wear the retainer, my front teeth will get crooked. (Believe me, if I could avoid wearing a retainer at 35 — next week — I would.) If I wear the retainers, my gums may become a problem. Again.

Oh, I’ve been seeing this orthodontist for 20 years this summer. We moved back to Georgia around June 20. The orthodontist was pretty much our first stop. But I digress.

Why do we get ourselves so in knots about our bodies? My gums receding COULD really cause a problem. But so many body flaws (like crooked teeth if I stop wearing my retainer) aren’t a big deal. Yet, I fret, too. Sigh.

Thank you for listening.

This is why the Aveda salon and I are BFF.

Also, stop using that damn magnifying glass on yourself. No good! NO GOOD, I tell you.

I love this post. What good reminder of how physical traits make us who we are.

If it makes you feel any better I have found 3 gray hairs in the last while. I think it is one that just keeps coming back. That is what I am telling myself anyway.

I have completely skipped grey hair and am loosing my hair due to stress at 24 years old. I wish I had grey hair I could just dye.

I have way more facial hair than a chick should, I have to think about standing up straight (so if you see me not doing so tell me so I can focus again) and well….I am starting to get down.

:O)
