Sundries on Sunday

The dogs woke me up at my usual time this morning, between 6:30 and 7:00 AM.  I let them out, even ate a little breakfast.  Maybe 7:15 I decided I'd go lay back down for just a minute, before I got into the shower.  I didn't even turn my bedroom light off, since I was only going to be laying down for just a minute.

Next thing I knew, I was waking up and it was 11:00.  I guess I needed that sleep.

My abscessed tooth is feeling a little better.  One of my Facebook Friends suggested that I rinse my mouth with a 50/50 solution of hydrogen peroxide and water, and that did help.  I was looking online to find things to do about it, just to hold me over until I could call the dentist.  One site suggested putting a clove of garlic on the tooth, to help relieve the pain.  That didn't work out so well.  I think it was because I kept eating the garlic.

Did I ever mention that I love garlic?

So that one didn't work out, but I'll be calling the dentist in the morning to get some antibiotics.  Wednesday is my regular appointment, so I'll get him to check it then.  I've had enough abscesses, though, to recognize the symptoms.  That means, root canal.

And that means, shopping in Jackson after I'm done.  They have a pretty nice mall down there, and at least one yarn store.  And the root canals themselves aren't so bad.  I go to a specialist.  Root canals are all he does, so he's kind of got them down pat.  It doesn't take much longer than getting a regular filling. 

Speaking of, I finished two more hats.


This is the one I was doing out of sock yarn:




That yarn is Cherry Tree Hill Supersocke in Cherry Blossom. This color always makes me think of ice cream. Charlotte was kind enough to model it for me.

Oh, and I started another one:


This is just a simple basket weave pattern in Cascade 220 Superwash, blue.

Well, I've got a storm rolling in, so I'd probably better get off of here.  Even though I slept so late, I already feel like I'm ready for bed.

And with that, I'll bid you goodnight.

I've never had a root canal, but they don't sound fun. I hope you don't have to have one.

I've had several now, and they really aren't that bad with the new technology these days. It takes about an hour, and the most painful part is paying for them!
