Feeling a wee bit punky today after dental surgery this morning.
I have a phobia about such things due to an unfortunate encounter with a dentist when I was 5 or so. Standard dental care, no problem, but otherwise? Nervous!
So last night I didn’t sleep well in anticipation of the 9 am appointment.
However, I would really like to get my mouth fixed, so I showed up on time and with as good an attitude as I could manage given my history.
The orthodontist was very kind and reports from friends who had seen him were all highly positive. So I got into the ‘zone’ and let him do what was necessary.
In the end, the situation wasn’t as bad as it could have been so it all went well (according to him!)
I’m supposed to ice for 10 minutes on, 10 minutes off, which doesn’t leave a lot of time for doing any handwork. So I’ve been vegging on the ipad, cycling through Facebook, Ravelry, my emails and round and round and round I go.
After eating a big bowl of rice pudding I made when I got home this morning, however, I’m feeling a little more perky. That, plus the hour long nap, I suppose!
Anyway, so far so good with pain management and the swelling doesn’t seem to be terrible, so hopefully I can do ‘light’ duties tomorrow.
Yesterday I pulled colours for yet another tea towel warp, the loom is currently empty, so that needs to be dealt with, plus there is homework to mark, book to be read, puzzles to make, knitting and plying to be done.
If I don’t get anything accomplished tomorrow, it won’t be from lack of options!
