We are getting one hour more sleep but we are losing the summer... Those on the other side are lucky

Treatment time app. 2 years
you know, pre braces I have a mouth guard applied inhopes to correct my grinding at night-[if you check out my initials you can see why! so much overlaping and underbite on one side!]
----- and i would unconsciously take it out as well! :grrr: so I totally understand the frustration of wanting to keep it in for a relaxed day without jaw soreness or sensitivity- but nooOOooo! you are honestly the worst person when you are sleeping- only worried about getting the most comfortable sleep without distratcions-
darn unconscious self taking over 
... I eventually stopped wearing it, and after a breakdown decided it was time to get races
anyways- Im sure your ortho will have some suggestions, it sounds like this happens to more than enough people to be of a concern
anyways- great progress, awesome halloween-y colours!

Hey Ken!
I don't think I've had the chance yet to comment in regards to your story - but like I said in another post, I pay particularly close to your progress because I had some gum issues at the beginning of my treatment, too. Due to some gum and bone loss I really stepped up this whole makeover of mine to another level and went for the braces. I wanted teeth that I was proud of and that would be with me for the rest of my life and treating my mouth the way I was wasn't going to make that a possibility ever! Anyways - you're shaping up very nicely, indeed! Very inspiring to someone like me.
I thought about doing Halloween colors as well - but chickened out. However, Xmas is right around the corner and I will DEFINITELY be doing some Xmas colors then. I thought that the colors were for kids - but I'm rockin the pink ones like they were a new shade of lipstick or something - so I'm hooked.
It would be totally cool to see your DR up on this forum! How exciting is that! Yeah - you better behave and occasionally say some really nice things about him (like before your adjustments) just to stay on his good side.
Keep up the great work and just as great attitude. I'm watching & learning from you...

Happy birthday, Ken!
I have been trying to find the very first pics, as well as your background story you posted on this site so I have more of a frame of reference, but going through the archives just frustrates me, I'll get back to it later! But anyhow, your teeth are looking great...and the second I saw that mouthguard I know why you might keep spitting it out! That thing is HUGE!
