Busy Week

It has been a very busy few weeks and week will be no different. Malori's graduation is on Saturday, then her open house, Bailie's is on Sunday and her open house is Monday. We have been cleaning up the yard, planting flowers, cleaning windows and the house is still a mess. I only have a few days left to get the house cleaned, food figured out and bought and cooked. Besides work, Malori's track sectionals, school groups coming to the store and a author book signing at the Library on Thursday night.

After church I had a birthday party at the store and now finally home and should be doing something but I am so exhausted I can't get up. Thinking about just going to bed but guilt is keeping me from it.

Well we'll see how the week unfolds as we prepare to watch out youngest daughter graduate and move on to the next stage of her life.

Wisdom Teeth

At Malori and my last dentist appointment it was decided we both need to get our wisdom teeth out. Malori's bottom ones are coming in sideways and before it messes up all the brace work we had done they need to come out. I have one top tooth that is braking apart. In fact when I chew parts of the tooth fall out. The other top one is falling down. Which to me doesn't seem like a problem but about 20 plus years ago I had the one under pulled and apparently since the top one doesn't have anything to hold it up it is pull down and can pull down the jaw bone. Then the bottom tooth that is perfectly fine has to come out because now if you pull the top one you don't have anything keeping it down. Why didn't they know all of this 20 years ago when I had the first one pulled?
So today was the day Malori had hers pulled. Kevin took her and she did OK but they had a hard time getting one of the bottom ones out. They had to cut out part of the root. The top 2 hadn't even broke through yet so she is all stitched up. One side of her face is pretty swollen. The funny thing is they gave her pain meds which she has been taking every 4 hours, but it isn't making her sleepy. Really weird. They knocked her out and she came out of it pretty alert and hasn't sleep but about 2 or 3 hours all day. If I take pain med I usually sleep all day.
I wanted to take her picture to put on here but she refused to let me. Whats up with that? I did manage to get her to eat some chicken broth. I sure hope mine goes better in a couple of weeks!
You wouldn't believe how expensive it was to get hers out. $3700. Thank goodness for at least some insurance! Mine won't be but about half of that. I am definitely in the wrong business. Maybe we should have done what they did in the old days, go to the barber! I happen to know one.
