My endurance is pretty good now that I’ve been running twice a week. Enough to make me not want to come off the field at our first (and second) soccer game. Though, whenever I kick the ball, I always contort myself into weird positions.
Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”
See?
After the first game, the middle of my back was so unbelievably sore. But a good kind of sore. Like I’ve worked out with some heavy weights. It doesn’t hurt, but there’s some new muscles being used. Strange, isn’t it?
I ended up calling my dentist the other morning, because I had a pretty big filling done about 6 weeks ago and noticed that it felt like it’s “leaking”. I was very disappointed lol. I freaking hate going to the dentist. I had an appointment last Wednesday to get it checked out.
He requested that his assistant do some x-rays.Of course he had to mumble something along the lines of “Worst case scenario, we’d have to do a root canal.”
To calm my nerves while he left me to digest the news, I decided to ignore it because his wife (the secretary) was ever so kind to me telling me NOT to worry, and it was probably nothing, and then take pictures…
Ok, that didn’t calm me. So…WHY would he even bring that up if it’s not even an issue yet? Why make me want to vom all over the floor when he gives me that news? I said to him (because I’m so stern in DR’s offices lol) “What? Excuse me? Why would you even say I need that done. That’s crazy!” … he repeated himself “Not to worry. That’s the worst case scenario.” Yeah, not like looking at the glass half full or anything. It’s like he wants to give me something I don’t need. (Like stretchmarks creams!?)
He looked at the x-, sprayed some air on my tooth, and then tapped on it with some plastic instrument. The root of my tooth seemed fine, and my tooth wasn’t bothered much by the air blowing in at it. All I had to do was keep using my sensodyne toothpaste and keep an eye on it. OHHHHH thanks! Thanks for giving me worst case scneario buddy, then telling me absolutely nothing is wrong with my tooth!
I walked out of there happy as a pig in…
How was your Monday?

I’m glad the endurance is keeping up with you!
The pic kinda cracks me up! :)
Nancy says: I know, it’s (the pic) a bit insane isn’t it?
I hate hearing worst case scenarios…I mean really is that necessary?!?!
Nancy says: He’s like that with everything too! He tells me “Now, if you feel this needle go in – tell me okay? I’ll give you some more ______(whatever it is they give you)”. UGH! LOL
