Thanks. I know I must have sounded horrible when I called sice I was still pretty numbed up. I go back this friday for the second half of the "fun". Wish me luck.

The fun I'm referring to is the surpise root canel I ended up having last week. I went to the dentist to get a filling replaced since the tooth was starting to ache. I ended up needing a root canel because the tooth ache was due to the nerve being exposed from loosing the filling and the resulting cavity had compromised the nerve. The dentist did the first half of the root canel and placed a medicated temporary filling in and I was put back on antibiotics for a week (the nerve had started to become infected). I go back friday to have the root canel finished and a perminant filling put in. Ohh and did I mention I HATE going to the dentist. The only good part is the dentist gave me a nice perscription for Lortabs which I did need for a day or two after the first part of the root canel.

In other news....my garden is suffering big time from the drought we are having, but I have managed to keep it going. My lawn, on the other hand, is more than half dead. The tress behind me are starting to drop more leaves than I would like at this time of year. It is way too early for the leaves to turn and fall. One of my flower gardens is slated to be torn up within the next year. The water company is replacing water lines and water meters in my little town. One of my gardens is right by the water meter and it will ave to be torn up when the replace my meter, but the company is supposed to replace the garden when they are done which may work in my favor since I want to redo the garden anyway. Plus there are a few small stumps in the same area I'm hoping they remove Speaking of gardens...I've already started to plan for next year and will be planting tulips for next spring. I'm hoping we get some rain soon so I can reseed my lawn before it gets too cold.

As for the quilt sqaures...I'm more than half way done the second of 4 squares. I should have mentioned the squares I am doing are all counted cross stitch so they do take a lot of time, but they are very rewarding when I get them done since I have designed the patterns and stitched them.

Well I am off to walk my dog and then back to stitching.

Wow! You've got your hands full -

They say they will put it all back when they are done with the piping but really.... all they did on my lawn was throw some hydroseed stuff in... didn't rake, de-rock or anything.. so it was all wasted.

Root Canals - yuk! I've have only one, and that's all I want thank you!

The quilt sounds awesome - counted cross stitch! That takes f o r e v e r !!! I bet it's going to be beautiful!

The plus for me with the piping is the pipe is to be laid across the street and they plan to tunnel under the road. At my house they will just have to enlarge the hole where my meter is. There are a couple small stumps in the same area I would love for them to dig up I want to redo the flower bed, but if I loose it it wouldn't hurt my feelings since I will just dig up my plants first. They have been video taping the properties to protect all parties and to have a record to refer back to when it comes time to repair the properties.

This is my secod root canel. The first one was horrible, but this one wasn't too bad. My dentist did numb the hell out of my jaw so there was minimal pain during the procedure and I took a Lortab before the numbness wore off.

The quilt should look great. Actually there will be two quilts, one for each of two people in a group my mom belongs to. There are 16 cross stitch squares in each quilt and each square represents a position in the group (if that makes sense). I'll post a pic of one of the squares when I'm done it.

I'm actually feeling half way decent. The second half of the root canel took over 2 hours today. Overall it wasn't bad, but then my dentist is very generous with the novacaine. My dentist also gave me another perscription for additional pain killers because she said I will be hurting after the work today; the root was a lot deeper than she expected and the nerve near the tooth will be irratated from the root canel too. Ohh well atleast the tooth was saved.

Not much else is new.

Thanks all.

I warn you I'm about to go on a rant/rambling session because I need to. I am so frustrated by my boss that I'm to the point I no longer like my job and dread going to work everyday. This is not a way to live. I so regret saying to my boss that I would work where he needed me to work. If I had known by saying that I wold end up taking a considerable pay cut, I would not have done it. If I had known I would end up feeling like a used, unappreciated idiot mostly thanks to my boss I would not have taken the office job.

I hate that, except for my family that is ten hours away and my ex (yes I am talking with Red again), I'm alone in life right now. I am depressed plain and simple. I love my family, my dogs, my horse and my house. I am not depressed enough to leave them, but I do want the pain to go away.


How do I fix this....I find anothe job that I can enjoy and that pays what was making ebfore I took the office position. Find a partner to share my life, the good and the bad, someone who can put up with me and complete me. If the man exists, I need to find him and hopefully soon.

hey!
did I read that right? Yuo took a pay cut at the same job?
LEAVE THAT! You and I have spoken about this....that place has been nothing but a constant source of dread for you. You are an intelligent, bright, wonderful and caring woman. You have so much to offer...and you are settling for that. GET OUT OF THERE....you aren't appreciated. Yet...you are a cornerstone for that f'ed up place. Get back out there....and talk w/ the farms...other vets..etc.
And stop w/ that other guy...he's damaged you enough...u know this. If he's just an orgasm donor for you....and soeone to hold at night for that reason...then take it as it is....but dont fall for him again....how amny times are you going t let him hurt you?
You are my friend and I care about you.

Sweet sorry to hear how everything has been going its really a shame! You deserve so much better! You have a lovely home and great hobbies you need to think about a new job doll.

I travel an hour and a half to almost 2 entire hours each way to work but I LOVE my job and I make SHIT PAY! But I love my house where I have just moved and I love my job but can't connect the two.

You have so much going for you right now your gorgeous, your smart, you have great hobbies, your a loveable and personable person (we know what I'm not - a great speller ) theres no reason for you to be miserable!! You should be on cloud 9 right now in your life!

Well I did say I would post a pic of the cross stitch panel I've been working on for a quilt. I finished the second panel this morning. After finishing the first panel, I decided to make some changes which is why the panels are slightly different in the side by side photo.

Thanks DB. I put a lot of hours into those panels. Now I'm working on two more panels with different designs.

Burner - Sorry I didn't reply to your text message. I haven't been able to at work since boss has been working in the office and I've been trying to get some things caught up at work.

In other news...as if I don't have enough crap in my life. I was working with more horse this afternoon. She had an appointment with the dentist and she wasn't very happy about it (not that I blame her). I was attempting to give her a shot of sedation (she hates shots more than the dentist) and she was getting very upset. In her attempt to show her displeasure she tried to strick out with a front leg. When she raised her leg up she ended up nailing me in the left side of the groin with her knee. Somehow I stayed on my feet and got her sedated. I was amazed I didn't feel any pain or discomfort until a couple hours later at which point I said to myself, "Thank god I'm not a man, because I man would have been on the ground after getting knee in the groin by a pissed off filly." Sorry guys, but I will say at this point as I sit here with an ice pack on the left side of my groin, I have a new appreciation for what kneeing someone in the groin can feel like.

Don't you realize that men have a telepathic ability to feel pain just be reading about a groin shot?! I need some aspirin!

Well in that case, better take something stronger than aspirin since I've already taken a Lortab in addition to ice and I'm still feeling it. Tomorrow is not going to be a fun day

Bad story! No!

Just tell us you were kicked in the head or something. It will be less painful for the readers!

Hope you feel better soon!

I'm actually feeling better than expected. It doesn't bother me to walk, but it aches when I'm sitting. Atleast advil is taking the worst of the ache away.

You are my friend and I care about you.
Figured I better respond to this one....

I am looking for another job, but I absolutely need to find one that pays atleast what I make now. I can't afford any more pay cuts even if the job offers benefits. That's one of the problems is finding something that pays atleast what I make now or more and offers benefits. In the mean time I have to stick it out here cause I NEED the money.

As for the "other guy"....we do still talk and he has been there when I have needed someone to talk to. We do remain friends, but I believe he knows the ball is in his court. I won't be putting myself out there. If he wants a relationship, he has to be the one to pursue it. He did actually come to see my house a couple weeks ago, he even changed plans so he could come for a visit. What happened....I ended up falling asleep while we were watching tv so left left after telling me to go to bed.
