Is it Friday yet...

I went to see the specialist yesterday and he started to do a root canal on my tooth. He was kind of a jerk but I had to deal with him, I just wanted some relief fast! So he hardly gave me any Novocain at all. I wasn’t numb or tingly or anything. So I could feel pretty much everything he was doing. I had such a bad infection he had to put a “drain” in my cheek/gum area to let the infection come out. He suctioned some of it out and it was some nasty stuff! He told me to do salt water rinses for the next two days and then on Friday I have to go back and have the drain taken out. So last night I just ate mashed potatoes and some corn for dinner because we went to Boston Market as we had some errands to run. After we were done eating I felt something back in my cheek that wasn’t there earlier so I was all sorts of sceeved out about it. John kept telling me to just leave it alone. I couldn’t, it was bothering me. So I kept playing with it, I thought it was food or something that got caught back there because of the swelling. Well finally about after an hour of me messing with it and John yelling at me to keep my fingers out of my mouth, it came out. Let’s just say I accidentally pulled the drain out of my cheek. It had to have started falling out anyway, because it was not there earlier in the day. So I was all sick over it and John was mad at me because he kept telling me to leave it alone and of course I didn’t. After we were done with our errands I just went home and went to bed. I didn’t feel good and I was exhausted. Needless to say I was up most of the night with horrible hip pain and my mouth hurting. So I kept John up too. I feel bad that I keep him up all the time because of my tossing and turning. I’m just so uncomfortable! I called the specialist this morning and told them that my drain fell out this morning when I was doing my salt water rinse (a little white lie) and they said that it was Ok but I still have to come in tomorrow morning to have it checked out. Other than that things are good. I’m tired and would love a nap right about now. The swelling is starting to go down in my cheek, so that’s a good thing. Aiden is still a little squirm monster. You should see the way he rolls around in there! The only bad thing is that heat is already unbearable, I think it was in the high 90's the past two days! So I don’t know how I’m going to make it through to August with this extreme heat and having to cart Aiden around in my belly…
