Me again.

Hi Again,
So I have decided that now that I am doing just about nothing this month (besides unpacking of course and the odd babysitting job) I am going to take it upon myself to blog often enough that you will all feel as though you are here. So I don't know if i told you all but i got my braces off!! YAY!! but... I got a bite plate today, which is really annoying. The main reason is because you can't taste a lot. Here is a little science lesson for you all. you have little things in your mouth that are called taste buds and through these little buds you taste (hence the name). now you have taste bud located on your tongue and on the roof of your mouth. So when you wear a bite plate, that big cool colored part (that you can put stickers on these days) covers the whole roof of your mouth, there goes tasting anything. The upside is I would probably win one of those hot pepper contests the boys used to have. Anyway the couch came and it looks SO good! (picture below). Of course we are not allowed to go near it with food (though its a little hard because the dining room table and computer are all less than 4 feet away). but i don't think this ultra strictness will last for too long, until then we just about have to shower before we want to sit on the couch! Just kidding. (but Nana did say something about plastic covers). Well I attached some pictures of the new couch and what the apartment looked like a couple of days ago. (now it does look to much like we just moved in) I will try to post more recent pictures soon.
Love you all and miss you tons!
Love Miriamthis is what it looks like now with the couch
