Detachment and the end of limbo, sort of...

[Phoebe]

I have to say, beyond sheer distraction, a toothache has nothing to recommend it! Luckily, I am feeling markedly better today. I can eat normally and even gently chew on that side of my mouth, and the aching throb has only resurfaced a couple times today. I'm on day 3 of my antibiotics and still taking plenty of ibuprofen, but less and less frequently. The swelling is steadily going down, too, so that also makes me happy because I'm not as self-conscious about my facial asymmetry. At its worst, I looked like I had mild Bell's Palsy. Not a great look.

The farm has been a bit busy of late. The fields are being hayed this week, which is always super cool. One of my favorite things is to looking out over my freshly cut fields that are scattered with new, large round hay bales. It's beautiful.

Ok falling asleep, so I'll cut this short. Good night everyone!
