I am gainfully employed

I'm going to be working in the deli at the grocery store here in town. I'll still be available to the kids, so that isn't so much a worry for me, I guess.

Josh and I went to the dentist yesterday. We kind of knew Josh would need some work done, but I was floored when the dentist told me that I needed braces. Now, if he had said Maddie needed braces, Josh and I would find a way to make that work, financially I mean. But really, I can't imagine shelling out that much money for me. It's...well... just weird. (oh, and the braces are to correct my bite. With my history of TMJ, missing molars, and my headaches*which he thinks are due to my jaw muscles being so tight all the time from my bite* I have to go to a special orthodontist.) So between the the 2 of us, we need around $10,000 worth of dental work. Yeah.

Well...I guess it's a good thing you got that job. Not that it will help handle something like that. Good luck!

Ouch!

Congratulations on the job, though. Does the dentist have some kind of payment plan that you can use?
