breathing a sigh of relief.

we all know, i hate the dentist. I've blogged about my aversion to going. here

today it was my turn to sit in the chair. and i have to admit it wasn't so bad.

ok the treatment plan, and extensive work needing done is completely daunting.

I'd say it was horrifying but sadly no worse I than expected.

the price tag though?

HOLY HELL! it resembled the price of a small car new off the lot. yes, there is THAT MUCH NEEDING DONE! including extractions, root canals , crowns, and (gulp) partials.

that's gonna hurt. even with insurance.

Ok but that's not why I'm blogging about it. going to the dentist. i'd just as soon pretend that i needed nothing done.

TODAY: i have to confess, i had a visible cavity on the front my right canine up near the gum line. semi hidden by my top lip. it made me seriously self conscious.

it's been there a long while, but my aversion to the dentist has kept me from calling and going in.

TODAY I FINALLY GOT IT FIXED!

HALLELUJAH!

I hafta say, it's a major relief that now i can smile, laugh, or talk in public without feeling self conscious like people can see this discolored, chipped looking, crap on my tooth, ugliness.

I have BEEN FEELING SELF CONSCIOUS ABOUT IT FOR? umm, probably a year? maybe less?

yes. that is PATHETIC.

but since it's been so long that I've been worrying about it.

well, now it's just that much more of a relief that it's fixed right? YES!

Ahhhh. { did you hear me breathing a sigh of relief?}

on the way home I was thinking WHAT WAS I WAITING FOR? it was NOT bad AT ALL!

and it wasn't even expensive.

I'm retarded

but i feel so much better.

((grins!))

QUESTIONS!!!!!!

Do you have dental work that needs done? what are you waiting for?

love the dentist? or hate it?

now I'm off to the eye Dr. for me and Liberty. I've never had an eye exam.

she is almost guaranteed to need glasses. she has all the signs. squinting, failed vision screenings at school and the pediatrician etc.
she's hoping she gets glasses.

then there is me , i'm having mixed feelings about it.

i'll let you know how it goes.

so. we ordered Liberty's glasses. she's near sighted.

and I could go either way. since my eyes don't totally bother me . i can wait. a year or two . OR get some glasses now. i'm holding. until i either find frames i LOVE somewhere or feel like i really need some glasses. OH and i have slight. astigmatism.

we did the dilation thing. and holy crap. hate it.

i can't read for crap. can't discern colors. what use is looking at frames. if you can't see how they look on you?

it's been a crazy busy productive day.

there is more going on.

so...Glasses? do you have them? need them ? want them?

just wondering.
