I went back to the dentist on Wednesday for a "deep gum" cleaning. And I DID NOT CRY!!!! Read it again, I DID NOT CRY. I took some anxiety medicine and went to my appointment. The root cleaning wasn't as bad as I thought it would be which was nice. The dental hygienist has kind of adopted me and she's so amazing. She took some stains off my teeth that I was SUPER self conscience about.
My teeth are clean! I have no stains! This lifted my self esteem so much!!! Monica (the hygienist) was very excited about it. My dentist, Dr. Erik, said my gums look better, my extraction site is healing nicely and I go back in September.
It was a great visit! Very big accomplishment for me! I'm proud of myself.
I'm a little ashamed to say that I fell off the diet wagon this week but I don't even care. It's been a rough week (work) and I like to eat comfort foods when I'm stressed and hurting.
My fibro however, is out of control. I've been in pain at least 3-4 days this week and today is awful. I'm grumpy and just want to go back home.
I'm struggling through. Depression is bad lately but that's not new and you guys are probably really tired of hearing about that.
I'm 35 books into 50! Super proud about that too!
Not much else to report. Just the usual stuff. Work, home, sleep, work, home, sleep, lather, rinse, repeat. :)
I hope you all are still reading!
