Midweek Hello

Quick update- nothing exciting here. I am in tons and tons of pain right now. Clarification, tooth pain. I have been hurting since Saturday, and I see the dentist tomorrow. I think it will involve a lot of drilling because something is definitely wrong- well, we are pretty sure a root canal, which I have never had. I have cried tonight. Poor Rooney keeps bringing me socks and I just don't want to play. I am pretty good at categorizing pain and dealing with it later- I even got my bike ride in with Joy today. (Nancy, I did big gears in salute to you). But, now I am beyond the point of being tough and I really hurt. I just want this pain to go away. So, I am going to watch the rest of the Olympics and try to sleep. I finally gave in and took some medicine, but I don't know what else to do. I just hope the dentist can make this better for me tomorrow.

Elsewhere
School is fine- the countdown to finish classes are over. I am surviving my last 2 handfuls of weeks in classes. Despite the senioritis I feel, I am making good grades and bringing everything to a close nicely. Let's hope I can keep it up! And, for the days that I feel that I just can't do it anymore- I drink from my happy cup. Check it out!

This is the cup I made a couple of weeks ago to help me get through the rest of school. It has happy thoughts all over, including "think +++" on the handle. I tote it to school on the days when I feel a bad attitude coming on, and it reminds me that it is a beautiful day!

I'm so sorry about your pain Damie! Get better soon and keep us updated.

The Positive Cup is an AWESOME idea. Where did you make it? I totally need to get one of those! :)

i didn't realize your teeth were hurting so badly! hang in there, and i hope you're appointment goes well today. just remember to bite the dentist when he/she starts to inflict too much pain...neat little trick.
