The dreaded dentist!!

Anyone that knows me knows that I am terrified of the dentist!! However, I knew when I started getting a tooth ache last weekend I had to go. So, I made the appointment when I knew I couldn't stand it anymore and when Ambesol wouldn't work and I about overdosed on Tylenol!

So, I took off work yesterday and went to the dentist. I went to Loogootee and was terrified. I am usually a pretty strong person but I would rather go to the gyno!!! Sorry for all the men out there =)

Sure enough, I have the start of an abscess. So, she gave me Penicillin and Hydrocodone. I usually get deathly ill with any type of pain medicine other than Tylenol however, it hurt so bad last night I took one. It didn't even touch the pain. Great!!

So, the solution is either a root canal (2000.00) or extraction (70.00). Now, which do you think I am gonna do??? It's all about the almighty dollar! So, I will probably opt for the extraction. I know they do not like to do that, and she said with you not having the one right above it, it will limit your chewing (like I can chew there now). It is the 2nd to last tooth on bottom! Especially since the root canal isn't guaranteed, I think that extraction is my best choice.

Now, as Lacy and Ashley can attest she is a TINY TINY gal and I was thinking how in the world is this little bitty gal going to yank my tooth out???? I guess when the infection is gone I will find out. I just hope they give gas or knock me out cause I am SO SCARED of this.

So, does anyone wanna go hold my hand???

I've been tagged!

I Got Tagged!


Ok, so I've been tagged by a friend to let all of you know 6 random facts about myself. It might take me awhile to think of some stuff:)


Lets see....



1.) I too have OCD... I admit I am SO weird with things. Everything has a place and everything should be in it's place!! I could things all the time, just random counting to 9. Sometimes I feel a little like Monk. I know scary huh?!?!



2.) I LOVE dogs. Almost to an obsession. There have been several lost dogs end up at Crane and the crazy dog lady always seemed to take them home with her. (Yep, that's me)



3.) I have a burning desire to travel to Africa. Most people know this about me.



4.) I have quite a diverse family. I have 4 brothers and sisters. 1 biological sister and 3 adopted. One Hispanic sister, a bi-racial brother, and an african american brother. Plus, we have had 2 foreign exchange students!!



5.) Ed & I have been married for 10 years. We actually met at "Three Pigs" Restaurant. I did not like him!! What was I thinking!?!?!



6.) I have a God given talent for peeing my pants if I get to laughing too hard. It really is a talent. Annette seems to be the one to make me do it the most!!



So now I have to Tag 6 lucky bloggers: Lauren, Andrea, Leslie, Carol. Everyone else has been tagged so I just got 4!!

John Waller's "While I wait" from the movie Fireproof


I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait


I will move ahead, bold and confident
Takeing every step in obedience
While I'm waiting
I will serve You
While I'm waiting
I will worship
While I'm waiting
I will not faint
I'll be running the race
Even while I wait


I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve you while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting on You, Lord

MANIC MONDAY!!

This has been a STRESSFUL day!! I mean it has been crazy, I am trying to make it better but my goodness!



I know that there will be days like this but it just seems like if one thing happened there were 2 or 3. However, it will get better! We have a free night tonight so that will be good. Aimee's team won the Nationals qualifer this weekend so the coach said make plans for Panama City in July!!



On another note, Ed decided to cut his hair last night. He always cuts his own and I come by and get the long ones he missed. Which I did, with the guard on. Then he asked me to shave his neck and so forth. Well, I got to talking and didn't realize he had taken the guard off and .....



YEP!



You guessed it, I cut him a big ole' patch in his hair. He wasn't too thrilled but he is pretty laid back and now has as we called it an Andy Burkhardt cut! Every time he walked in the room last night we got so tickled which was so wrong of us but he took it well and laughed with us!!!

Attitudes

Friday night myself along with a bunch of gals from church went to a women's retreat at Camp Illiana. On the way down Pam T. and I talked a lot about dissension within churches and what we see as the "problems". That ole' scum dog (the devil) will certainly use good people to split churches. We MUST, MUST train our minds to keep pure thoughts and remember it is about HIM not us.

We got our confirmation through the workshop we went to titled "Making Sundays Special". She covered almost to the T everything we talked about. We have to have the attitude of worship not only at church on Sunday but in EVERYTHING we do. Is it hard??? Uh yea it is hard! But it is SO worth it. Too many times we get wrapped up with what that person in the pew behind us will think or what so and so is doing. People, it is time we wake up and see that we are to live our lives to make Jesus known and seen, to be his hands and feet.

We didn't get to bed until around 3 a.m and got up at 6 a.m. WHEW!! We even did makeovers wth before and after photos!! I will attach a few! After it was over I drove to Terre Haute to watch Aimee's tournament. She had an awesome day playing, and she & Ed are there today as well. They are 3-1 at this point I'll update you tomorrow on how they finished. I stayed home to go to church and go get Cole after while. It should be a beautiful drive. I am attaching some photos from the weekend! Enjoy!!
