One light out, and a traffic jam for miles. That's awful.
I wish I could have slept when I had 2 impacted wisdom teeth cut out some years ago-I was in lala land and felt no pain, but I remembered everything, and could hear all that drilling and cutting-it sent shivers up my spine. I'm glad I don't have any more wisdom teeth-I would run mad at the mere thought of that...
you have to go through it for your kids' sake, silly. they need you. it is a preventative thing. heck the president has had it done.
Well, I don't have to start putting it off until I am 40. I'm not there yet. :)
Yeah, the kid thing is kind of important, too.
I feel for you all. Even this cold weather here is too cold for me. We have another high particulate day. No outdoor activities for people with respiratory problems. Uggghhhh.
That's one of the big reasons we do not live in that city of over a million people-anything out of the ordinary causes a traffic jam for miles.
he is with a diff doc and hosp this time, but i certainly hope they will knock him out. this is a guy that passes out when he has to have blood drawn. HUGE WEINER he is. they better put him out. we live very close to the hospital where he will be tomorrow. so i intend to get him all settled in and then go home and come back when it is time to get him. i am literally 5 min from the hosp. the last time i sat there forever waiting for him to be done sleeping. they had to go and wake him up! it is funny, bc dspite my advanced alzheimer's i can remember vividly what i was stitching while i waited for him. isn't that odd?
I have no idea what the outside temp is - all I know is that is freezing in this house...or maybe it is just me :)
when I got back from the lodge last night not only did hubby have a fire going in the wood stove, he had the heat turned up and a kerosene heater going.
I can not believe it is this cold, this early in the season. The last I looked at a forecast for tonight is that we aren't going to get snow - what we're getting will be worse - ICE.
do you want to leave your kids to the other person without any influence from you? i didn't think so. it's a very good reason to take good care of yourself.
oh yeah, you are an infant too ; )
Heck, I'd be panicking, no doubt. LOL! Glad he has some good memories of it.
it is unusually cold for this early in the season, that is so right. i really HATE to wear coats, so i normally just wear a sweater or jacket to get in and out of the car and into the house/office. today i have a longsleeved silk tshirt with a bulky sweater over it AND i wore the winter coat to cross the street to the ofc.
Had my two bottom wisdom teeth removed about two years ago. I kept cutting my tongue because one tooth chipped as it came out and was trying to find a way out. I thought I was growing a new one. I had to have the danged shot in the back of the jaw so they could clean out all the little pieces left behind.
I've just been wearing a denim jacket lately if I put any jacket on at all - gnerally just a sweatshirt or sweater.
I had to put coolbreeze's leather jacket on to go out last night - I was running late and didn't have time for him to go searching in the attic for the box with my coats in it.
Up here in the Northern Plains we just recovered from a historic event - a "Weather Event" of Biblical proportions --- with a blizzard of up to 24" inches of snow and winds to 50 MPH that broke trees in half, stranded hundreds of motorists in lethal snow banks, closed all roads, isolated scores of communities and cut power to 10's of thousands.
George Bush did not come....
FEMA staged nothing....
No one howled for the government...
No one even uttered an expletive on TV...
Nobody demanded $2,000 debit cards.....
No one asked for a FEMA Trailer House....
No news anchors moved in...
No looting...
No killing ...
Jesse did not show up...
We just melted snow for water, sent out caravans to pluck people out of snow-engulfed cars, fired up wood stoves, broke out coal oil lanterns or lamps and put on an extra layer of clothes.
Even though a Category 5 blizzard of this scale has never fallen this early...we know it can happen and how to deal with it ourselves. Everybody is fine.
I have an appointment set up for Cyber in January or February. The staff hasn't gotten the new calendar out yet. He hasn't had a physical in 20 years or so.
I don't think that is odd-women tend to remember details like that, where men do not. Some scientists believe it is an atavistic behavior that goes way back to when humans lived a precarious existance and attention to small details was necessary for women to protect her children and herself from danger if she was out alone.
I think most men are either real wusses or they fake it well to get our sympathy. Thank heaven men don't get pregnant and don't have to go through giving birth-if they did, pregnancy would be a permanent and compensable disability and maternity leave would be 5 years long...
then he needs probed but GOOD ... ; )
That makes all the difference in the world.
he ain't faking, he is a bonafide wuss : )
