Just Kidding!

Okay, I drove all the way to the dentist today in fear of losing my tooth. Well, I get there, he takes an exray, and then tells me he is sending me to an oral surgeon. So, I am blessed to still have all my teeth today and will be minus one tomorrow at a about 2:30pm. I am really nervous and scared. I had my wisdom teeth pulled in high school. All four of them and they were all impacted and I was wide awake throughout the whole ordeal. So being that I am much older now and have had worse done....why am I so scared? I think it is because of the shot they give you right in the roof of the mouth. OUCH! I remember that shot so clearly from my wisdom teeth. This is much worse than an epidural for child birth. I have to honestly say what I am scared most of is........the cotton they are going to put in my mouth after the tooth is gone to prevent it from bleeding to much. If you know me well, you know that I hate cotton. I hate to look at it, feel it, or even just think about it. It gives me the goose bumps (which I have now). Yuck. Anyways, I will end my pity blogging and try to get some rest for the big day tomorrow. Oh yeah one more thing. The pain medicine my dentist gave me comes with this notice: Do not drive, operate machinery, or do anything else that could be dangerous. Do you think staying at home with the kids is too dangerous for me to do while I am on the medicine? I guess we will find out tomorrow. Please say a prayer for me as I will soon be without a tooth.

Sue, this does not sound like fun! I went to the dentist on Wednesday too. But no cavities or anything for me. I guess I'm just lucky, cuz I drink soda, coffee, eat lots of candy and chew gum with sugar in it. Sorry that they are going to have to put cotton in your mouth, I know how much you hate that! Have a great time with it all anyway! Take care and I'll talk to ya soon!
