Tuesday Roll call

Hello everyone

Well I should have knocked on wood yesterday!!!  No everything with me and Chris is fine....but I have a really bad tooth ache.  I have to go into see the dentist.  I know it's no big deal for 99.9% of you guys...but it is for me.  You know how some have fears of getting shots or claustrophobia or heights or spiders....well my fear is dentist.  I mean I am scared but I am in so much pain I will have to go in.  I didn't sleep much at all last night.  I took 2 viocdin and it still didn't help.  Like always my band is locked tight now...not that I can eat anything anyway.  And I have diarrhea now too.  I am very nervous about this.  Chris came over and spent the night with me...and he coming with me to the dentist when I get in.  Ugh...I don't like this at all.  Not to mention I am broke from the car thing and I have rent to pay...now this!!!

So I am going into work and hopefully I can get a 1/2 day of work in and get over to the dentist ASAP...I just want to get this over with.  I am a tear it off fast like a Band-Aid type person.   Wish me luck.

So there is my day being miserable, work and dentist...how about yours???

See you all later...bye

Good Morning,

I think I will be happy when the time changes. At least it will light when I get up. I hate getting up in the dark.

Crystal, I am sorry you are having an issue with your teeth, but pull up those big girl panties and get to a dentist. I was the same way, and now, np. Mine I can take out.

Sharon, You probably needed all the sleep you got yesterday. Hope it kicks the cold /flu out of you.

Ham slice and sweet potatoes for supper. Hubert also wants corn on the cob.

I think we have figured out the navigation system on the new playtoy. One more hoop we are over.

Randy- where are you?

Dawn, you had a great weekend.

Nancy. how are things?

Ellen,  At least you don't have to go into the city everyday.

Connie, I am sure you will fine a new place to knit.

I got a new catalouge yesterday called Bits and Pieces, it looks interesting, I think I will order a few gifts from it. Then, all I have left is hubby, and a few other things. One thing I am getting for Hubert is a Menard gift card. That way he can pick out what he wants.

No drama from here this fine day.

Off to work, have a great day.

Hugs,

 

Good morning!

Sorry  that you are in such pain. There are so many dentists now that do pain free that you can find. I was kind of like that until I found a dentist among my friends. I go to her every six months because I'd be embarrassed not to. My teeth are in great shape now!

No big plans today. The cleaning lady is coming so I'll want to leave the house for a while. Sounds like there are big trucks in the neighborhood or clean-up crews. Another reason to find somewhere to go. There's always Starbucks but I prefer to support local. 

Have a good day!

Connie

Working from home today. I slept in (shhhh don't tell the boss!) and feel much much better today. I skipped last night's workout all together because of the pounding no-sleep headache that plagued me most of the afternoon and all evening long. I didn't even feel guilty about skipping it - which is a total sign that I needed to skip it. My OCD on working out of late is palpable so I'm glad my brain let me relax about it last night.

Baby boy only woke up once last night and happily went back to sleep after a quick diaper change and a bottle. And my little girl (2) achieved a milestone I've been expecting for quite some time... her first S-bomb. My little parrot. I really have to stop swearing. Like a year ago.

Spending today tracking down a very large contract (my job is in sales and it's month end closing in) and then hitting therapy at 5. I've recommitted to that to keep the crazies at bay. See paragraph 1 about OCD.

Have a good one everyone!

Ellen

Crystal,

I am so sorry you are suffering like this. I used to be terrified of dentists. I had a bad experience when I was 13. I now see only women dentists & now I go every 6 months. I know it is expensive, but it is part of my regular preventative health regimen since our oral health directly effects our physical health. Crystal, when this over with, look into oil pulling. It will keep your teeth extremely healthy for pennies a month.

Connie, I'm with you. I like to support local businesses as well.

Lisa, I think I am going to make the ham as well tonight. That sounds yummy. I will throw a couple sweet potatoes in the oven and dress them with butter and cinnamon. I also have a taste for baked apples.

Ellen you sound so busy.

Hello to all my other friends.

I am off to the phone store.

Hugs,

Sharon

Good afternoon Crystal and the rest of Illinois!

So sorry to hear of dental pain.  I have 2-3 broken teeth and no dental insurance or dentist.  I hate to admit that we never found a dentist since we moved out here 11 years ago.  It just seems like an expense we can't afford.

I went to see my counselor this morning, and though it helps to talk through things, I am worried.  He does not seem to remember what we talked about previously, even though he has notes in front of him.  The first couple of sessions, we covered a lot of ground, but today, he seemed to not remember that I worked for my father-in-law for 13 years and was betrayed by him.  Not only "not remembered" but SURPRISED.  Since I have never done this before, I don't know if this is "normal".  Just seems odd to me?

I wound up making crawfish entouffe last night and it was DELICIOUS!  WAY more work than the recipe claimed but oh so yummy.   Connie......let me know where you will be, maybe there will be left-overs after today.

I woke up this morning with vertigo.  Driving me crazy(er).  Every time I move my head.....dizzy spell.

Oh well.....down to do dishes.

Everyone have a lovely evening!

 

Dawn, tonight I'm home. Tomorrow I'm at the Woolgathering from 10-2. It's on Riverside across from Village Green just east of Mulford. I think it's weird that the counselor doesn't remember your employment.

Connie

Dawn,

In all the years I have been seeing a therapist, I have never had a therapist not recall my telling her something. I am usually the one surprised, because I have forgotten I told her something and when it comes up, I recall then ......I think this counselor may not be the one for you. Better to find out early in the relationship than later on. I think a woman therapist is better than a man for a woman. Women understand so many things that a man can never understand. Especially as we get older and deal with hormone issues after 40.

Hugs dear one......

Sharon

Hi guys,
So sorry I haven't checked in lately. Got home 2 days ago and now I'm in Iowa. Just found out this morning that I was going today. Well, I got to sleep in my bed for two days anyway. Last weekend I went on a family shopping trip. The good news is I got most of my Christmas shopping done.

Crystal, hope you get feeling better! I'll try my best to check in more this week.

Laters,
Kim
