turkey day, travel and toothache

Well, hello there LiveJournal. I haven't posted here in quite a while. Just a mixture of procrastination, the holiday, lots of homework and other time consuming things

I really, REALLY hate the dentist ... seriously. I used to have anxiety attacks just thinking about going there - but...

I found this really superb dentist who actually puts you TO SLEEP to do stuff (even like filling cavities...) .... He's a good guy. Dr. Winter- in Albany. They are all very nice there - if I ever get dental insurance, I'm going back to get some cavities filled. :)

Rats are nice. :-/ When they aren't wild and dead.....

Oh well, I'll email you tomorrow. :) Write more about your insane neighbors!!!

I remember you telling me about your dentist before, but I couldn't remember his name. I will have to look at my dental insurance provider's website to see if he is covered by them or not. I have never been knocked out for anything before! Scary! But I'm sure it's better than watching a drill come towards your face. Eeek!

I was just wondering/thinking about you today! Yay for you posting.

I have been thinking about your lately too! Ever since you posted about your lip balm creations, I have been really wanting to make some. I keep thinking about how cute your labels were. :) I have been trying to find a good place to buy the tubes and other supplies from. I haven't had much luck in local stores so maybe I will have to buy that stuff online.

I got my stuff from Wholesale Supplies Plus.

Hey you! I love Ikea - but only when it's quiet - if it's busy I get too cross. I always spend way too much money there too.

Glad your sister is okay - scary stuff!

It's so easy to spend money there. Everywhere I look in that store there is something I want to buy. I guess it's a good thing the store isn't close to where I live, otherwise I would be bankrupt.

I'm so relieved my sister wasn't hurt badly. She just had a few bumps and bruises. I have never been in a car accident myself (*knock on wood*) but I can only imagine how scary it must have been. She said she was shaking so much afterwards she couldn't even dial her cell phone!

okay i can tell you it's NOT stupid to be afraid of the dentist. the thing that helped me was checking out the places first. sometimes going in and getting a good vibe makes it easier. look on the internet, too, many have websites, for me, seeing things first made it easier.

remember? remember what YOU helped me get through? i'm here for YOU now, sweetie.

Aww thanks Kristen! I couldn't agree more that getting the chance to see what a new place looks like on-line can really take the stress out of a situation like this. I always check on the internet for any new place I'm about to go, just to see if they have photos or anything like that, whether it's a town, a store, a park, whatever... photos just help! :)
