My filling that fell out needed to be replaced with a full crown. *sigh* I tried to be tough but I cried because they had to do the roof-of-the-mouth numbing, and you know how I am about needles. I have a new dentist - my original dentist mysteriously disappeared, and I said a little atheist prayer for her, because I think she got very sick. But I

Wow! What a good visualization idea!!! I am so sorry about the crown! I feel personally responsible!!!! I have been teaching the remaining starbursts a lesson.

Don't feel guity!!! Think about it this way: I might never have known there was a further developing cavity under that filling if it hadn't come out, and then I might have remained unawares until I had to get a root canal!!! So maybe you saved me from that!

Well, I feel a little better!! Yay! Tea tonight!!! See you soonish!

OH, that reminds me. The Taciturn Ranger suggested that rather than being a nurse you might want to look into becoming a physical therapist.

I thought maybe the need for physical therapists was less acute, so it would be WAY harder to get in any way funded for that training. But you're right, I shouldn't take it off the table so quickly.

I am trying to tell myself that my needle thing is simply something I've been allowing myself to be afraid of all this time, and I can will myself out of it. We'll see.

That rope image is very resonant. I'm going to think about that.

It felt like it just came out of nowhere. I thought "I better get my mind outta here before I gag/cry/freak out" and the rope was there. Interesting!

Oh No!!! I called you about something stupid and unrelated, I did not know why you sounded out of it! I hope you are feeling better.

[snidegrrl]

Never feel bad about calling me, I am happy to assist in any way I can! I am sorry if I sounded like bitchy mcbitchcakes on the phone. I gotta rein that in.
