Not one for the squeamish !!

Here I am home again ,safe and sound ! I have to say Iam sooooo pleased that is over ,My appointment with the dentist this morning was for eleven ,fifteen.I left home at ten fifty ,and took a steady walk ,the dentist is the other side of our little town ,and arrived about eleven ten ,it was twenty to twelve by the time I was called in,so my already tight as a drum nerves ,were at snapping point ,I told the dentist and the nurse I was petrified ,you'll be allright they said ,the dentist ,you remember I told you, is this petite blonde(Polish Ithink )with limited English !I also said shes about fourteen  ! (gross exaggeration of course ) I believe she is married ,cant ask all my usual questions ,for obvious reason ,Well she injected me at the front,inside my mouth above the offending tooth ,and oh my goooodness it was agony for... I suppose seconds ,but felt longer,and then another one into the roof of my mouth as well ,As she said thats the worst over ,and it was ,back I went to the waiting room for it to become numb,and then the process of drilling the remaining crown off ,that took for ever ....then impressions taken for the new crown ,and the tempory one was fitted .I was home again at one thirty so It wasnt my favourite way to spend a Friday,and I am sorry to be giveing you a blow by blow account,but I was so keyed up before I went ,and now its over I feel drained , and still a bit numb .I have to go back on March 3rd for the permanent one .

Right forget teeth ! When Maurice finishs work today he will be off for a few days well earned holiday ,he has to get his holidays taken before the end of March,so we plan to do some visiting and on Monday it will be my birthday so I am looking forward to getting some visits from family ,and of course Maurice has a couple of jobs around the house ,hes planning to do .So dear friends if I dont post everyday you will know why !     With Love

  I'm going to chill now in this lovely rocking chair made for me by Donna

Awww that's a comfy chair Donna has made you.  You go chill after your ordeal, I hate dentists too, not them personally just what they do.  Happy Birthday for Monday, I hope you and Maurice have a wonderful weekend. Rache xx

Hi Jan,  I`ll bet you`re so relieved now that`s over, the next visit will be a breeze! I`ve not had the `pleasure` of having a crown  (yet!)  but it`s not something that I`d look forward to! I hope you and Maurice have a nice weekend and enjoy your visiting.  Happy Birthday for Monday.  :o)))

((((hugs))))

Oh Jan, Happy Birthday for Monday! You were very brave going to the dentist - I'll let you into a secret - i havent been for about 20 years or more and I dont have a dentist!! At the moment I have a very painful broken tooth and I keep just taking the pain killers rather than go! I keep thinking it will get better. It doesnt hurt all the time - I think its just a sensitive area! LOL Laine xxxxx

I had one of those done last year and you have my sympathy! Be careful, I managed to swallow my temporary crown! Hope you enjoy your days off with Maurice and have a wonderful birthday!

Hi Mum, like i told you on the telephone, you are a very brave big girl. Anyway, you lot = the chair is mine as i have a bad back (Sciatica) and can't move and think the chair will soothe me. You can always come visit me mother, it would be nice to see you as i have been staring at bedroom walls since thursday. LOL! Kate

Your description of the dental treatment had my cringing!  Glad Maurice has some time off, make the most of it.  Pretty graphic.
