Hi everyone,

I have not been around alot lately due to my personal life. I have now moved back to IA and I am temporarily living with a family member until I get some stuff taken care of and get a job that I can support myself again.

My divorce is filed in TX and now we are just in the waiting and discussion phase with that. It has been a tough year but it has also been a very enlightening year.

I am emotionally in a better place than I have been for years and I get stronger everyday.

Now some of the stuff I have to do before I can really get a job is some dental work while I still have the insurance. So this morning I spent 2 1/2 hours in the dental office at least 2 of that in the dental chair, I did have a couple potty breaks. I hadn't been there for awhile and knew I was going to have to have some work done. So I go back tomorrow morning at 7:30 to start on something there and have to be in another city about an hour away for a root canal redo at 11:30. I imagine my bladder is going to love this day! I just have to bite the bullet and do it though because my good dental insurance is going away with my divorce.

Dang, I will be glad when this is done.... but guess what.... LIFE IS GOOD!!! :)

I'm so happy things are working out for you for the most part. I guess when dental work is the worst of things going on in your life, things really are going well, huh?

I need some major dental work done too, so I can relate. I hope it all goes smoothly for you and doesn't cause any flares, etc.

Take care, Sandy

I'll be thinking of you and hope your dental experience isn't too bad. I have another dental appt on Friday and they are saving 90 minutes for me --- it's all on one tooth so I hope they finish it this time. I have dentist phobia --- would actually rather have a hydrodistention than one filling! Am I nuts or what?

I think it's great you are getting settled in; I hope you're back working very soon and this past year can be put behind you.

Sending gentle hugs,
Donna

Well, I just spent 2 more hours in the chair this morning.. my bladder is not at all happy... now I am out the door for my next one... he is going to have to use the other type of anesthetic, I can't take anymore of the ephinephrine based one today. I stopped home to take some Uristat and now I have an hour drive to the next appt. I just want 1 pm to get here soon. By then this should all be over with!
