It has been quite a week to say the least. On Saturday, March 24th I broke part of a molar with a filling in it off. Sunday, March 25th we celebrated my mother-in-law's 80th birthday at a beautiful restaurant located on a golf course. Kaye was overjoyed because all of her uncles, aunts and cousins could sign her cast! Monday, March 26th I called my dentist and they said they could not get me in to look at my tooth until the following Monday, so I booked the appointment. That night I started to have computer problems with my laptop, but also problems with a molar (crowned molar with a root canal) on the opposite side of my mouth. I was up all night with pain. I called the dentist the next day and got an appointment for 10:20am since I was in pain. Two hours after they numbed me up, I had the tooth extracted (looking back now, I should have just had it extracted years ago instead of going through the root canal and crown process that cost over $800!) The dentist told me the tooth was extremely abcessed and put me on Vicodin and Amoxicillin. I had my husband go to the pharmacy for me on his work time, because there was no way I could go with how much my mouth was bleeding. He took off the next day to take/pick up Em from school and keep Kaye occupied during the day. I was in a lot of pain and slept a lot. Jay went into work late that Thursday so he could take Em to school and I picked her up that day. By Friday I still could not open my mouth much and it was still a bit swollen. I am doing much better, but my computer is not and I am missing it!
Jay's co-worker has my laptop and is running programs on it to try to remedy the problem----most likely a virus. I'm hoping I don't lose the information I have on my laptop, but I may have no choice. Needless to say, this is why I have not been blogging the past week and a half. I am using Em's laptop, but it's not 'mine' and is much smaller. I am hoping to hear some news soon on my laptop. Just a reminder to everyone reading this: BACK UP YOUR FILES!!!! You never know when something like this will happen. Luckily I don't think I have too much of importance to lose on my laptop, but of course there are things (clog-related too) that I would rather not lose.
