Life update

I just thought i would post a life update as I was just reflecting a bit. And my life it actually good at the moment. I feel like its time things went good hopefully for a good while feel like i have had more than my fair share of shit. Going on my first holiday in 30 odd years.

So the good things are. My teeth journey is coming to an end. Well I say that probably another 6 months but the end is in sight its been going on since covid. That's been a massive thing for me . That's meant alot.

Ds18 is soon moving to semi independent accommodation. He's much happier and has a girl friend now. He visits home regularly. And he also video calls alot. He's going throgh a phase of pirsing he has 14 in his face ffs. But he's happy that's all I care about. Oh he's also going to dog sit whilst I'm on holiday

Dd14 is happy she's just doing her teenage type stuff . She's happy generally. She's been in recent contact with her father who she had never met. She's discovered more siblings and other relatives its early days but it Seems positive

Dd27 is doing better. Her general friendships seem better She's distanced herself from people that are not good for her. For now anyway . There's a few bits going on but she's OK.

Ds 9 and 10 they are Doing good not much to say really. They just do kid things . But in general they are happy.

Ds22 is doing great hes really happy. But also busy and very tired with work. So hopefully holiday break will do him good. He's also hoping to pass his driving in the next month or so.

I really posted this as a reflection and to express that my life is not a shit show. And that things can be good and can change.
Also it kind of feels unreal. Even though its all good stuff it feels rushy I'm my head almost an anxious feeling although things are good and I feel positive.

What have you had done with your teeth? I’m thinking of trying Invisalign. My wonky teeth never bothered me before, but now more people seem to have lovely teeth and I feel self conscious. Not sure if it’s worth bothering in my mid 50’s though.

I have had/having implants. Its taken me years to save up though. I don't know anything about invisalign. I would do it if i was you being in 50s makes no difference if it's going to make you feel better.
