Ok, so those of that read my journal know I do. I swear this is the last alert for the night. Well, that is true, but what I was going to say is I swear I did 1000 loads of laundry today. As I sorted through the items and put them in the wash I swore my son left a few of his things here or that my neighbors snuck in and dropped their clothes in with mine. I pulled them out of the dryer and began to fold and they were mine. All mine. Next load, same thing. What the hell? When did I get so many clothes? Hell, when did I wear so many? I did wash last Saturday, as I always do. I work full time so that is 5 outfits there, another 5 if I change into something else after work. This week by the time I decided to change it was late and I pretty much put my 'jammies' on. Soooo where the hell did all these clothes come from? I would never ever wash clean clothes, trust me! So how come so much? Add on towels, bedding, the throws from the living room. Damn, I did do a 1000 loads!
Went to the dentist yesterday before work. It was an appointment for a soft adjustment. I had no idea what I was in store for me but off I went. I sat in the chair and talked to the Dentist and the Surgeon, both are very pleased with how I'm healing. How fast things are going. Apparently they expected me to heal a bit slower with my history. Not so. I apologized for my whining and they both assured me I have been fine. They have some that come in 2 and 3 times a day with issues. :::wiping brow::: Thank God that isn't me, I've only been in 2 or 3 times since my surgery. So out come the teeth and they work on adjusting them by putting a soft acrylic in so they fit better. A couple adjustments and in goes the top. The fit is unreal. Felt like my own teeth. My good ones before all this nonsense started. I run my tongue across them and they feel dirty, or rough, so we go to take them out so she can clean the access off. Guess what. I can't get them out. She can't get them out. I am in tears laughing even though it wasn't funny. The suction was so strong we had a helluva timebreaking the seal. Yeah! Permanent ones! No worries we did get them out, she cleared off the mess on the outside and in they went. Then the bottom. There is no seal there so no worries on not getting them out. As I bite and wiggle my mouth to check things out I realize I have a good bite. Better then the last few weeks. You all know I was getting frustrated with things, even with all the pain and aggravation I had before I was having second thoughts. A little late, but second thoughts just the same. Now? I am thrilled! I feel like new. I feel like my bite is right and I will be in good shape when the healing is completely done. I can chew normal and don't feel like I have to cut everything in baby size portions. Still a bit sore if I bite on something too hard or thick so no steak yet, but I know now deep in my heart I did the right thing and all will be good. I will have to go back in about 3-4 weeks and they will do it all again to keep things snug. Both think I might not have to wait a full year for the 'permanent set', so that is good news. I will let you all know when I eat that steak.
Well I promised this was the last alert for today and I will hold to that promise :) I'm off to bed. Going to get up fairly early and get the last of my shopping done. YEAH!!! About 4 stops to make and I'm done. Well, I think I am.... for now .............. LMAO

Excellent...teeth are so useful, they are important; we take them for granted but when we loose them we realise how precious they are, for the digestion and other pleasures in life. What an adventure it was for you, but you now seem to be getting there and your new teeth sound wonderful; a new you is emerging feeling more apt to chew, soon the steak again. I also need to pay attention and invest in the future, when I get a job, in re-doing some work in that area.
