Monday morning update with Tuesday morning's better mood
There is a whole other post I want to make re: my family and wedding shenanigans that I will have to get the strength up to post. It's most unfortunate that you can't pick your family because at this juncture I'd much rather pick some new uncles, thank you. On to the other stuff!
--Chris has moved in with us temporarily while he looks for work and a place to live. He and his wife left Vegas 10 months ago for Montanta (where the wife is from) and it didn't work out at all like they'd planned. So they're moving back and Chris is the scouting party.
--Sunday we helped my cousins move into their new house. It's big and gorgeous with lots of little neat things, like an intercom system. I just hope they made the right choice.
--Yesterday was dr. day for me. I had to go back to the dentist to get my permanent crown put on. That and the cleaning was relatively painless. However! Through x-rays I learned that I have 3 extra teeth in my mouth. Two molars on either side of my lower jaw...behind my wisdom teeth, laying down sideways so they haven't erupted yet. I also have an impacted tooth in my gums on the lower left side. Needless to say I was quite the celebrity at the office as they'd never seen anything like it before. I got a referral to an oral surgeon, which is money we don't have right now, so I may not go until after Oct. But I need to see what my insurance will cover, if anything.
I also had a follow-up with my allergist, which turned more into an appointment about my eating habits and weight gain than my actual allergies. I knew this was going to happen; the last time I had a follow up he said I needed to lose weight (which I do). I guess a doctor is a doctor is a doctor at the heart of it. I'm trying to exercise more and there's stuff I'm cutting out of my diet that I should have done back when I found out I was hypoglycemic. Needless to say I was in a bit of a funk yesterday. But today Mav and I are going to the gym and it should prove to be good.
