What The Friday?!

So. I had my wisdom teeth removed last week(Groan! She's going to write about this AGAIN?!)
I had to stop taking the prescribed oxycodone and tylenol 3 because I wasn't able to properly watch LB.So. I got some extra strength tylenol.I'm not a pill person. I just don't like to take pills.So, I only took 1 tylenol at first.Nothing.I took a second.Nothing.I waited about 4 hours from the time I took the 2nd one, and took 2.Nothing.what the friday?I ended up taking Midol because it actually RELIEVED the pain for a bit!And as a bonus?I didn't feel bloated.So, really. It was a win - win.
But the pain was constant, throbbing and worsening.I finally went to the doctor.I had Dry Socket.what the friday?Doesn't that sound disgusting? dry socket.makes me think 'dry rot.'vomit.Not only did I have dry socket, but I have exposed nerves/roots.And that will take about a month to heal.what the friday?(the entire time I thought I was just being a wuss)
(but I feel 1000 times better now - - I didn't realize just HOW much pain I was in until it was gone!)******************** Last night was the first night I got up with LB in about a week or so.That turd woke up at 4am and did not go back to sleep until 6:30am
what the friday?
And although I'm not supposed to eat them right now,I went to the store to get more Newman O's for my stash.And?THEY WERE OUT!
WHAT THE FRIDAY?

Pour Your Heart Out: Drugged

I am linking up for the first time ever with Shell for:

Just a forewarning: This is going to get serious.

As you all probably know... and if you don't, I'll tell you again:

I had my wisdom teeth removed on Friday.

To gain more of your sympathy, I will tell you that I had all 4 of them removed.

Two were labelled as:

Full Bone - Impaction

and two were labelled as:

Full Bone - Difficult
Which I'm pretty sure that means it's terrible - and I should've just kept them.

I'll give you time to say: "oh dear, that is awful!"

....Thank you. I feel better.

*smile*

I have been on pills.

All weekend.

And?

I feel like a shitty mother.

I know it's not my fault, but it still sucks.

I was held captive to the couch Friday, Saturday, and most of Sunday.

All that I could do was enjoy ~foggily~ watching Jerk Face playing with LB.

(and curse him as he ate chips.)

They would laugh...

and LB looked at me

My face hurt as I tried to smile at her.

I remember hearing Jerk Face tell LB that 

"Shh! Mommy is sleeping"

She was so good.
Almost like she knew that I was feeling ill.

I know that LB is young and won't remember her "Ma"

being a druggie 

not playing

not reading

not rocking her to sleep

not even smiling through a simple game of peek-a-boo
for a few days

but a part of me knows that even small things like this

can shape a child.

Is she going to be a little less happy because I'm not smiling back?

...she seems to be wanting Da-Da more...

~and~

I know that getting your wisdom teeth removed is 

one thousand percent

different...

but.

My eyes have been opened to see a new light.

I never thought about how it would be for a mother who is unable to play with her children felt.

I never knew the ache that forms in the heart.

It hit me like a ton of bricks.

Friday night, I was in such a state, that I couldn't even make it up the stairs to sing our bedtime song.
That killed me.
I said a prayer for all parents that are unable to be with their children right then and there.
Unlike so many other parents, I will get better
(hopefully soon)
and will be playing with LB
and reading to her
and getting annoyed by her.

And I can't wait.

Public Service Announcement

Go ahead and do yourself a favor...

Go out and get this ice cream:

RIGHT NOW.

You'll Thank Me!

It's Breyers Triple Chocolate.

Triple Chocolate.

Did you hear me??

Triple.Chocolate.

That's Milk, Dark and White chocolate ice cream.

I haven't been able to eat my regular Dove.

(in the RED package, Jerk Face!)

Wisdom Teeth.

(-- I'll milk it --)

I have been in desperate need of chocolate... and this seriously hit the spot.

I am in love with it so much, I'm actually trying to save it.

As in: NOT eating it all in one sitting.

**And I'll go ahead and do what I see other blogs write:

~This was not a paid advertisement.~

I just found it to be too amazing to keep it to myself!**

Now. Excuse me while I go dish myself some while LB is napping!

Ahh!

This wisdom tooth removal thing might not be so bad...

This Is How We Like To Spend Our Vacations...

I'm linking up with Kim today!

Hello Blog-o-verse!
I'm starting to feel a little better... I had my wisdom teeth pulled Friday.
Not a great way to spend your weekend.
And further more.. Not a great way to spend the end of a "vacation"...

I was drugged up for a while. I haven't taken anything since 3:30 this afternoon.. so my head is clear and I can try to write a post before the pain gets too awful again...
I did try to read and comment on your posts over the last few days. If I didn't leave a comment.. I'm sorry -- there's a chance I fell asleep. If I did leave a comment.. I'm sorry -- there's a chance it doesn't make sense.. or it was 1/2 hearted or something like that.

As I mentioned above, this is the end of a "vacation". I use quotations, because Jerk Face and I didn't do anything. I wanted to get some painting done last weekend, and was off to a good start... until I decided to use a stencil.

You should never think that you can stencil a room in one day.

I'll save all of that for another day.

I was working on my pantry, and although it is mostly done..

It's not complete.

And I want to show you all the finished product.

Aside from painting, we went to the zoo. 

LB's a few months older this time, and enjoyed the animals much more.

I didn't take any photos this time.

We just enjoyed it.

Our Zoo just had a baby elephant, and LB loved it!

She makes elephant sounds. 

I should try to find the video I took of her and post it on here.

I know I told my parents I would send it to them...

Sorry!

I never did, in case you were wondering...

We got our new front door on Wednesday.

That took forever for them to install!

The guy called and said they would be there between 1-2p.

A little after 2:30 they finally showed up, and were there until just about 5p.

So much for THAT day.

Thursday, we purchased some new outside lights 

(and a new pantry light - Jerk Face said that was my reward-

- he really knows how to treat me right, you know? HA!)

And that brings me to Friday.

(That is my blankie from when I was little -- I'm letting LB borrow it for a while... when I'm not using it, of course!)

I was on the couch ALL weekend.

I still feel like crap.

I think it's the oxycodone.

It makes me really nauseous. And drowsy.

I don't know why people would take that to get high.

It sucks. BAD.

This afternoon, I thought I would take Tylenol 3.

I was hoping I would be less drowsy...

yeah.

I just slept for 3 hours.

Jerk Face was jealous.

I'm sure he's jealous of my new diet for the week too:

Some of it looks good...

but I just want crunchy!

Jerk Face has been munching on tortilla chips and salsa!

What a jerk...face!!!

*smile*

Sorry this was a bit long and boring!

I hope to have better posts soon!!!

How DARE They?!

So, as we all know... yesterday was Oprah's LAST SHOW EVAAHHH!!!!
I had my DVR set just in case I got too busy around 4 o'clock to watch it....
....
...
...
Channel 11... the channel that hosts the Oprah Winfrey Show....
had the gall to NOT air Oprah's LAST SHOW EVAAAHHH!!!!   Can you believe it?!
What did they show instead????
The weather.
Apparently, they felt that the golf ball size hail (and larger!) and threats of tornadoes were MORE IMPORTANT than Oprah's LAST SHOW EVAAHHH!!!!  I wonder what Oprah will think when she hears of this?  They'll probably all lose their jobs.
The weather people (all 3 of them!) were apologizing for not showing Oprah's LAST SHOW EVAAHHHH!!! but they thought that keeping everyone informed of the weather was more appropriate.... NEWS FLASH! Oprah probably CAUSED the storms because you refused to play it!
So, instead of watching Oprah's LAST SHOW EVAAHHH!!!! yesterday, it will be airing today.


Anyways... In other news....  I have to get my wisdom teeth removed.
I had my consult today... I need to have all four removed because they're impacted. They rate the difficulty of removing them (and the pain and swelling that go with it) on a scale from 1 to 6. And LUCKY ME! I have 2 at a 6!!! (Dr. Brian didn't tell me what my other 2 would be...)
NOT looking forward to June 28th.....
(I wonder if the Rapture will come before then?)

I know the rapture is old news,
but I wanted to share what I did
the day after: I called my parents
and played Blondie's 'Rapture',
and told the that they've been
'Raptured'..... I know, I'm not
going to a good place when it
comes.           *smile*
