or What the Hell do the Fates have in store this week?
When this week began, I was determined to do something, anything to make me feel as though I was still on the right page. Any page, mind you, so I left it up to fate to point me in the right direction.
This was before I realised I had a dental appointment. It has been cancelled so many times, I was beginning to think it would never happen, despite having had toothache for months. Not a terrific way to start the week, I thought, secretly hoping they would cancel again as I walked through town.
It was too nice a day for pain and/or discomfort, something that usually happens the minute I sit in the chair, and I wasn’t expecting anything less, as the plan was to remove an incredibly old crown and investigate the reason for the toothache.
I knew this would include the dreaded needle that always made my eyes water. Unavoidable, but after being stabbed like a pin cushion, I didn’t care what they got up to, as I wouldn’t feel a thing!
Turns out, the infection was extensive, YUCKY according to the dentist, so today’s visit was a good thing. Could this have been the reason for my dizziness and earache? Time will tell, but I really hope it was.
Back at home with a temporary cap on the now pristine stump, I tried to decide what I wanted to do with the rest of the week. The WIP, or overdue promotion? I had a list, of course, but reading it didn’t help at all.
What I need is a visit from the muse, someone or something to choose something and insist I do it. I still feel determined, even though my guidance system seems to be out to lunch, despite my good intentions.
I will sign off now and continue to hope for the best. I will let you know what happens, if anything, next week…
Jaye

It still aches and seems very sensitive to cold drinks, but I have my fingers crossed!

Now that the infection from the tooth isn’t infecting your bloodstream, a few days of rest and reading, and you’ll be greeting spring with chirps and sunshine.
Teeth and their infections can cause a lot of problems, and having a low-level infection getting into your blood is bad for everything because the body has to fight it all the time and has to leave some important zones to fend for themselves.

I am not a fan of the dentist, Jaye, but they are necessary. Good for you for being brave. It sounds like it was a good idea to get the work done.
