Tooth, anyone?

It's been a while so here I am. I keep seeing the same locations reading my blog and figure they must be ready for a new one!

This last week was a good week I'd say. On Thursday I had to have a tooth pulled so I prepared by taking off of work on Friday. Let me explain why. The last time I had a tooth pulled (the one located directly below this one at the very back of the mouth) I had to go to an oral surgeon because it was so far down into the jaw bone. I have very long roots on my teeth. Well, this surgeon did give me nitrous but it wasn't working. I am (was) too nice to say anything so lets just say I remember EVERY bit of it. He couldn't get the tooth out. He jerked, pulled, jerked some more. I am not kidding, he was jerking my head up off the head rest. He ended up breaking the tooth out in little pieces. I had prepared to go to work the day after and had to call in. Based off of that experience, I felt better about being prepared to not be at work rather than calling in and being badmouthed and looked down upon. I guess it happened anyway, but that's the way it goes around there. This tooth pulling went well. He did have a little trouble pulling it out and I could hear it internally when it was coming out. *gross* He did comment on how long the roots were and even showed me. They are long, that's for sure. I felt pretty good all evening just really tired. I woke up with a terrible headache and some jaw pain. I was very glad to be able to rest at home and not be doing a lot of talking and so forth. My health is more important than others satisfaction. I have been struggling today with pain and irritation but I did have a tooth pulled for goodness sakes. lol

Saturday morning my dad and his wife came up to visit. We had a nice visit and they really liked the house. Dad commented several times on it which was nice. He forgot to take pictures though! They brought some of our Christmas gifts just in case we didn't come back to Chickasha. It's difficult to call it home, because for us this is home. I don't know if my father hates a place on Earth more than Hays, Kansas! Les and I also went and got a few more Christmas gifts for the house. Nothing major. We did have a nice visit though.

Today was a nice nap day and lots of reading for me. We watched a movie, which cut into my reading time! I am reading Stephen Kings new book "Under The Dome" and it is great. I love his books because they suck you in from the very beginning. I can see this one being a movie if they get it in the right hands and don't let them screw it up. Most of his books that go to movies get screwed up. Four that didn't were Shawshank Redemption, Stand By Me, The Green Mile, and Apt Pupil. There are a few more but they did a GREAT job with these! "It" was a great movie too but I hated the ending! Enough about that.

Not much else right now. Not feeling that great so I think I'll get off of here and read a bit. I also have some decorative things I may work on for my bathroom. I worked on it earlier in the week (before the tooth pulling) and have just a bit more to do. I'll post pictures when I mostly done!

Here's to a great weekend and a wonderful SHORT week ahead. Not so sure about the trip to Ness City for a party Tuesday night but I'm trying to get this business to take off so maybe I can make some lifestyle changes.

Stephen, darling, here I come!
