The Dentist

I have never been timid of visits to the dentist, but recently I had to get my two top wisdom teeth extracted.

On Friday I was very very nervous before going to the dentist. Now needles do not bother me, but it was the thought of getting my teeth yanked out while I was awake that bothered me.

Thankfully, the experience was not too traumatising apart from getting a bit panicky when the anaesthetic was put in the roof of my mouth and it felt like my mouth was starting to swell up.

The crunching sound was not too pleasant either but thankfully the whole process was over and done with in half an hour. And I have had no bruising, swelling or much pain at all. Now that is a blessing!!!

Unfortuantely I am making another trip to the dentist today. It looks as though I might be having a second root canal. I had one in January.

After this I really hope I have no more trouble with my teeth. Maybe it's easier having false ones!!

More Stuff

Just been down to Nowra on the weekend. It is so relaxing down there and so great to get away from busy Sydney. Tim helped out with the youth group's learn to surf afternoon. I stayed at home and worked on a college assignment.

After church on Sunday morning we came home and Tim's parents told us that someone had made an offer on his house. This was great because we've only had it on the market for a few weeks. What transposed is that we've accepted an offer on the house and if all goes well it should be sorted out soon!!! That was a real answer to prayer.

Had run ins with the medicare office people lately. Isn't it frustrating when you're just trying to get something done and people are rude to you? Thankfully on my final visit I had a friendly staff member and I was able to finally get a medicare card.

Next thing to do is get a new passport and see how I can get approval to teach here in NSW.

Might have some more people over this weekend to our little apartment. Otherwise we could be heading down to Nowra again. Yet to find out.

That's all for now.
