I'm a little late this week... usually I blog about this on Wednesday as that's the day I switch to the next set. Unfortunately, this has been such a screwed up and busy week, I just didn't get to it. Haven't gotten to much of anything for that matter. Then I forgot.

I guess I forgot because so far, this has been the easiest set I've had to wear. Not that they weren't very tight on the first day - they were. Just that after I got them on, they haven't caused much of any discomfort. Nothing is rubbing, they aren't bothering any tooth in particular when I remove them.

One thing I am finding, the upkeep is getting more annoying with the passage of time. The 9th set means these are weeks 17 and 18. I happen to get bored fast, but the alternative is to stop - which would be a HUGE waste of money (not to mention all the time invested so far). It won't be much longer and I don't have to wear them all day every day. When I can leave them off during the day, I'll be much happier. It's just the constant upkeep of pulling them out to eat, brushing, putting them back in... should I wait and eat later... can I drink "this" and then put them back in without brushing... yada, yada, yada.

And so it continues. OTOH - unlike the younger girls in the dentist office I am sticking to the program. I can't understand why someone would want to do things to drag out the process even longer. Seems ridiculous to me.
