Wednesday

Happy Wednesday, everyone!

It's not Wednesday, you say? Well, I was out sick with a migraine yesterday, so it's Wednesday for me.

Okay, it's Thursday. Picky, picky, picky.



I haven't been around much lately, what with the dental issues and Chance's illness. Time for an update.

1. I have made great progress with my teeth. I had PIZZA yesterday, which I was able to bite into like a normal person. *happy dance* My gums are healing well and the soft reline of my dentures makes them pretty comfy, considering. I know some people who are not able to chew anything much at this stage (about a month out), but I have been able to add MsDonald's hamgurgers, McChicken sandwiches, peanut butter sandwiches, grilled cheese sandwiches and even (gasp), pretzels.
   
   Getting my teeth done has also meant a huge improvement in my blood sugar management, so all in all, dentures are a good thing.


2. I have begun the process of adopting another aussie from ARPH, an aussie rescue group. It takes weeks to months to get matched to the right dog. I'm not quite ready yet, but I feel like by the time they find a dog for me, I will be. They have already started the process, calling my vet and contacting the people I listed as references. We'll see how it goes.


3. I'm all set to meet with Jen and a whole bunch of other LJers on Saturday. We're meeting at a resautrant in DC. How cool is that? WOOT!


4. I saw this article on CNN about how to navigate with no health insurance. I thought it was a good resource...they list a bunch of places to go for help. I suspect a lot of people are going to find themselves in that boat. Good to know there is some help available.

Not much else is going on at the moment. I need to get back in the swing of LJ. When I am sick or troubled, I tend to hole up. Well, enough of that!

Hope you are all doing well.
