Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

[Alaskan]

I did the same thing with jelly beans a couple of months ago. - and I never eat candy. SMH I really don't mind the dentist - my dentist - he is great at pain control, and has an appropriately weird personality and sense of humor. Even with the 'senior discount' the price of his work

The dentist is great.... he did a great job with my mom's crown, and fillings for my kids.

I just couldn't be simple. Nope.

Then my mom told me how my dad NEVER let them use ANY numbing stuff. None! Not for any of his fillings, or his 3 crowns.

Good grief!

I had to round up emus today. Well, actually, my neighbor did - in the wind storm last night a tree came down on the fence and took a section down, and all three were out. The neighbors saw them and herded them into their duck pen, then called me. So I fixed the fence and went and retrieved them. Luckily they will usually follow me, so I had my neighbor walk behind, just in case, and led the mob back across the road and into their fixed up pen.

I'm going to add more fence posts for extra support, so hopefully if such a thing happens again, the fence can take it.

Oh, and my brother got a Great Dane puppy. One day and he's already been on the phone with me twice about stuff and now he wants to pay me to have training sessions with him once a week, lol. I just wanna play with the puppy, so I'm not saying no to that.

Great update!

The thick ice chunks I kicked out of the rainbarrel yesterday are still laying where they bounced to after hitting the frozen ground and even the chooks water pan in the greenhouse never thawed.

Nothing says winter like tripping over a huge pile of ice chunks tossed out from the chicken water pans.

My grandma never used any painkillers at the dentist either. That’s just plain crazy.

Turns out I did NOT pull out a filling... I cracked my tooth.

I need a crown.

Guy started drilling... it hurt... he stopped, gave me another shot....waiting a couple of minutes and then will try again.

It was really just uncomfortable... not super painful.

Ack.... I can't stop slight shaking... like really? I am SO LAME.

Is it possible to be ok with dental work?

And now I feel antique.... my first crown. And i am shaking/ slight tremors.....

Well, they could NOT numb the front of the tooth... decided that maybe it is infected...maybe I need a root canal...

So... he did a temporary crown, I have scripts for pain meds and antibiotics...

Oh AL.
I'm so sorry.. Dental work sucks.
And it's so expensive.
I had to get a crown a while back. The numbing worked fine. .but it was one of my back teeth. My jaw hurt like crazy by the time they were done.

Isn't that the truth! The DH just LOVES it when one gets buried in the snow and he hits it with the snowthrower Just dawned on my why he bought me the brand new thrower last year. Said it was lighter so it would be easier for me to handle when I want to help blow out the chooks area.

So sorry to hear about your dental challenges my friend, that's never a ton a fun. I'm no wimp when it comes to pain but for some reason I just cringe at the thought of the dentist.
