Late!

Late is: not on time, behind schedule, belatedly, delayed, tardy or overdue.
Whew not that many synonyms for the word 'late', but just the right amount to make it another word to watch for in the ‘to use another word for world', huh? Creativity never ends and neither does a Thesaurus! Or so it would seem…hmmm… LOL!

Tonight I was late with getting this blog out to you due to us going over to our across the canal neighbors for an evening of pleasant conversation and dinner.
And we’re not unhappy with the outcome of that visit since it was extremely enjoyable.
We met other neighbors that were fairly new from across the street from them also who are also snow birds, but from Pennsylvania and live here for more than the six months than our Canadian friends are allowed.
They own a B&B, bed and breakfast up there, which I imagine they do only in the summers, since they said they are here more than six months a year.
The cross conversation was a bit confusing for me to follow although there were only the six of us, but my brain is not used to it anymore. When I used to be a multi-tasker and in better mental and physical shape then I could follow many conversations or do many things at one time but sadly not anymore.

And even though I had a wonderful five hours!
I am quite pooped.
You see, earlier today Hubby and I went on a few outings. The first was to get my hair cut, and then on to the Cultural Center for lunch and the library over there. I found five books, four from Linda Fairstein who was on the Today Show this morning talking about her newest book. And I had never read her before so I thought I would try her, nothing ventured nothing gained, huh? The other one is a Patricia Cornwell, her latest.

We had another bargain lunch today at the center with corned beef sandwiches on rye bread, big ones like in a New York deli and but with no cole slaw only spicy mustard and a better pickle than the last one I had there and all for six bucks each, plus one side salad for $1.75. Hubby decided on no beverage, his choice, not mine but I had my water with me and there it is just fine with them.

My Ohio cuz did email with the info I requested which was her email address. This is silly but I have two people with such similar addresses that I sometimes send the info I meant for the one to the other and vice versa, got that?
And now I hope I can remember…
Oh and tomorrow night I think I might write about ‘Necronym’, why in some religious cultures we only name our children after the beloved who have passed away, and why today many don’t.

On that somewhat mysterious ending to a short but hopefully sweet blog, let me be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and to remind you all to kindly count those blessings and share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?

Wrong!

Last night I confessed that I checked online to see what was causing my mouth problems and I was wrong.
Yep, I was.
Since today I could no longer wait with all the pain to go until tomorrow to the dental office and so I took the emergency route instead and ended up going today.

You see, I was wrong about the diagnosis of only having ONE abscessed tooth since it turns out that I had TWO! Numerically in the mouth numbers ‘14 and 19’, directly above and below one another on the same left side of my mouth towards the back!
I told you it was one helluva BIG OUCH!

And so oral surgery was performed today, needless to say the Novocain is wearing off and the pain, even though I was given the hard stuff, ‘Hydrocordone 5 500 MG’ (to take every six to eight hours, the first 5 stands for bit/acetaminophen) as well as Penicillin 500 MG (4X a day), which I took both of them nearly two hours ago, but for some unknown reason I am now once again in major OUCH LAND!

Is there no rest for the weary?

Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid… I was this close (my finger tips, thumb and pointer, are actually touching) to having much more serious issues to deal with learning from the NIH; the National Institute for Health has info on the consequences I just missed developing. And so did the dental tech tell me, brain infection, bone infection and on and on and on…

Any-who, my upper tooth, number 14, was drained for that infection, which will eventually have a root canal, but number 19 the bottom one was beyond salvaging and needed to be extracted as well as its root bone and I had a cadaver bone grafted there for a future stem and implant, whoa, you see what I mean nasty!

I knew that it would be bad but never this bad, when all is said and done we are also talking financially draining of over FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS!
Just what was done today was $1672 that was paid from my Care Credit account that is a no interest account for eighteen months, paying off $93 a month to keep from paying any interest, not too bad.
But that is the same account that I am still paying off my cataract surgery from, which is nearly half done with that one, darn this is still no fun!
Hopefully, the remainder of work will be done over several months and we will manage somehow…
Anyone want to pay me for this drivel?
I sure could use the money now.

Any-who…
I am so pooped now, as you can well imagine, not sleeping decently for a week, and tonight doesn’t appear to look too good for any dreamland either.

Well, I guess I didn’t keep that promise of more entertaining blogging yet, but we have weeks and months now that I was given the prospect of living once again longer, a reprieve once more!

On that trying so hard to be more positive ending to my day, for I think I will try to hit the hay (go to sleep) for our international peeps (people). Oddly enough my one cousin seemed to not realize that ‘peeps’, was just a slang term for ‘people’; since she accused me of using a dirty word! And this is my wordsmith one, cousin that is, believe it or not a translator by profession?
Oh well, she does deal with ‘proper language’, not this hack stuff!

So curiosity aside on why people do what they do I will like to wish all my fine readership a very happy good night and to all count those blessings and share those overages and we will too!

And next time PLEASE be here or be square, OK?

PS If your glands are swollen and your mouth hurts get to the doctor fast, please don’t be stupid like I was!
