A quiet afternoon...

I had some peace and quiet, watched a funny movie... and had a parafin wax treatment done....

Oh yeah ... did I mention I did this all while I *was at the dentist* getting two fillings?

I love my dentist! As a former dentaphobe, I get anxious prior to a dental visit even though *I know* it's not going to hurt... I just get nervous that maybe it will hurt and then I worry about how I will let him know that it hurts... Will I try to say something? Will I raise my hand? Will I cry? They use this rubber dam thing and it clamps around the area they are working on so they don't have to be constantly suctioning out your mouth every 5 seconds. It rocks. Well, even though I was watching one of my favorite movies and even though I told him to blare the volume, I could still hear THE DRILL... Oh, how I hate the drill and even though I TRIED to relax, I was so tense through the drilling... Well he said I "only" need two more fillings and two more crowns!!! UGH! I already have two crowns... these are not he kind of crowns you want to have... I will be so glad when all my dental work is behind me... it's all my fault, I have not always taken excellent care of my teeth - but I do now! And I'm vigilant about brushing and flossing my kids' teeth every day... they will NOT turn out like me!!! And now they have sealants which I think are the COOLEST things on the planet so as soon as they get their 6 year molars, they are getting sealants... I think they are like $100 a tooh or something but they are getting them... anything to help prevent cavities!!!
