Still hurting

I’m not completely back to normal. My teeth, or where they used to be, don’t hurt. My jaw hurts. It feels like the joint and the bone just aches. Bad at times. I can’t chew anything yet so I’ve been sticking to soups and protein shakes. I have a hard time opening my mouth very [...]

No lie, it hurts

Boy does it hurt. But not as bad as I was expecting. My surgery to have my wisdom teeth removed was yesterday morning at nine. They hooked me up to the IV and got me all situated. I remember looking at my watch and it said 9:15 as the doctor walked in the room. He [...]

So, tomorrow…

I did infact go to the dentist Friday before last as planned. They took two xrays of my bottom jaw and asked why I was there. Um, duh. The dentist came in and said “my God you must have a high pain tolerance.” I wanted to tell him to hang on, I wanted to record [...]

It knows

I swear it does. My body knows there’s a good possibility I won’t be able to put anything of substance in my mouth for several days. Get your mind out of that bottomless ditch, I’m talkin food here. I ate good all weekend. Pretty much only drinking my Shakeology shakes, attempting to get myself ready [...]

Movie night

Our movie night was one of my all time favorites. I love the Disney princess movies. I just can’t help it. They were my favorites growing up. Come to think of it I think that is where my love of red hair started. Little Mermaid. If I were ever to be brave and take a [...]

Stock show but no rodeo

This weekend was gonna be a lazy weekend. And then my sweet friend sent me a text telling me to get a babysitter and go to the stock show with them. Um, ok! So we called a babysitter that the girls love, ordered them pizza and high tailed it out of the house. We didnt [...]

We don’t accept plastic

Oh boy. That’s what the cashier told Mr R at lunch today. To say he wasn’t happy is probably the understatement of the year. He cussed the whole way through putting in his pin at the ATM. The ATM directly next to the cashier no less. He then got back in line, paid the cashier, [...]

Ok, alright, OH-KAY

I can’t take it anymore. My wisdom teeth are still killing me. But it’s not my actual teeth that hurt. It’s my effing jaw. And on holly mother of God does it hurt. At times I can barely open my mouth far enough to get a fork between my teeth. And yawning. Yawning was an [...]

Macaroni & Tomatoes

mact

Has definitely become one of my comfort foods. One of my best friends would make a big batch of macaroni and tomatoes and we would sit around and play cards all day. I haven’t dont that since high school. And she hasn’t made it for me since then. I used to love those days with [...]

Celebrate your Jiggle

20120124-102353.jpg

And jiggle we did! My friend Mandy and I walked the Jiggle Butt 5K in Arlington earlier today which benefits the Safe Haven Women’s Shelter. We had so much fun. We talked about anything and everything the entire way, consequently I probably couldn’t tell you the exact route we took if I wanted to. But [...]
