This morning I had a root canal procedure done on a tooth. While the procedure itself wasn't painful because of the wonderful Novocaine used, once it wore off I knew I had dental work done today! So much fun! I recently had a tooth break and had to have a crown put over the tooth. I was getting my bi-annual teeth cleaning/dental checkup when an abscess was discovered by an x-ray. I was not a happy camper. I am thankful that it was found before I was in pain with the abscess but was not happy to hear I was going to need a second crown within a four month time frame. Can you say cha-ching?
This afternoon while my mouth was letting me know of it's unhappiness I decided to distract myself by washing and ironing some fabric. Fabric is really about the only thing I iron willingly. I have a laundry basket that only holds quilting fabric that needs to be pre-washed. The basket is full. Guess what is on my list of things to do soon! Sadly (NOT) I will be going to some of my favorite quilting stores soon - guess what I will be bringing home with me? I will be good and try not to buy too much! Honest!!!!!!! I have finished one more Civil War block that I will be posting a photo of soon. One great thing about the Civil War blocks is that I have been going through my stash of reproduction fabrics for that era. I now have have a better idea of what colors I need to add or not add! I hope to fine some blacks, reds and blues. I do have lots of browns and pinks. I won't promise not to buy these colors, but I will focus on the three that I have the least of. I'll let you know what happens!
For me its blacks, reds and greens! Hope your tooth is feeling better - I've had my share of root canals and they are not fun!
ReplyDeleteI hope you will feel better soon! Maybe fabric shopping will make your pain fade away...
ReplyDeleteOh you poor thing! I am so sorry about your tooth. Heck, my dentist bill to refill 3 cavities was nearly $700 bucks, so i can imagine what a root canal costs. I am so afraid of being in that position next time I go in.
ReplyDeleteFabric shopping... buy much! You deserve it after all that!! That is what got me through mine :o)
You poor thing...I do hope you are not in too much pain.
ReplyDeleteOh my, I'm so sorry you've had to deal with tooth problems. I used to be a dental assistant and I assisted on so many root canals. I wish I had even a vague idea of how many. It was one of the procedures I enjoyed because it was such a precision procedure. Fortunately, I've never had to have one. It would probably no longer be one of my favorites if I had to have one ;)
