I had a good mothers' day - the kids made me beautiful cards and my mum (who's 86) went to a great deal of effort to make a lovely lunch for us all. So, yes, I am blessed.
But this weekend.... I have a raging toothache. And wouldn't you know it came in on Friday night (i.e. no dentist available)?
It's much worse when I try to lie down and is sensitive to hot and cold so I have diagnosed root canal as the likely treatment.
Before I got hold of some Ibrufrofen/codeine, I was almost crying with the pain as I walked the supermarket isles doing our weekly shop. Nothing like throbbing physical pain to add to emotional devastation!
But thank goodness for pain killers that WORK! Imagine what it was like in the old days.....
Just gotta make it through to Monday morning so I can ring the dentist. Not looking forward to the medieval torture that is root canal, though.
