Yesterday's pain

Posted in Family Life

For about the past 6 months I have had a wisdom tooth that has been falling apart, occasionally it would cause some pain - you know, the stabbing kind that goes straight down the root of the tooth ... not very fun.

The kids and Don had all had work done on their teeth and Don told me that it was my turn.  I wasn't looking forward to this because I knew that the removal of this tooth was going to happen.  The last time I had a wisdom tooth removed I ended up with a dry socket and this was an experience that I just wasn't ready to repeat.

Soooooo, yesterday I was at the Dentist and she removed my last wisdom tooth.  It was a pretty unpleasant experience because the freezing did not want to take (I was starting to get an infection in that tooth).  They gave me four good shots of freezing and told me that I would be frozen for about 7 hours - my appointment was finished at 3:30 and by 7:00 last night the freezing was all out!!!!!

Today my jaw still hurts (Tylenol is only taking the edge off and Advil does nothing) and I can't open my mouth very wide which means that meal time consists of v e r y tiny bites of food - I guess that just gives me a reason to savor the meal more, right, lol.

Ouch!! -- no fun removing wisdom teeth.

We missed you at Mug Up yesterday.

My kids were very glad to finally play with Josh and Charlotte again. Jordan was definitely starting to go into withdrawals.

Hopefully we can catch up in person soon.

OH -- one last thing before I forget. Steven H. is off to his new Pastor's position this coming Monday. YAY!

Iced Coffee Syrup

≈ coffee
≈ water
≈ sugar

***IMPORTANT***: you need a percolator style coffee pot to make this.
DO NOT use a drip style coffee maker to make this syrup!!!!!

* Make one pot of coffee, then discard the grounds.
* Add fresh grounds, percolate again, with the coffee as liquid, not fresh water.
* Do this three times.
* To the finished coffee mixture, add one half the amount of sugar (if you end up with 3 cups coffee mixture, add 1 1/2 cups sugar).
* Mix until sugar is completely dissolved.

* To use: add 2 - 3 tablespoons of syrup to a 10 oz glass of milk, stir to mix and enjoy.
