still hopeful

Hello everyone. I am doing ok I guess. I really havent been feeling well so I really havent felt like posting in my journal. I have a real bad tooth ache. I am on antibiotics and some pain medicine. I guess I am a big baby but I hate toothaches worse than anything. The pain is right there in your head. They arent going to pull the tooth out until August 15th. I wish they could do it sooner. I have spent the last couple of days hanging out in bed. It hasnt helped that all it is doing here is rain , rain , and more rain. We are all stuck in the small trailor and it is hectic. I have been trying to relax and get my stress leval down a bit. So far I still have my medical coverage for perscriptions. Maybe It will stay afterall. I am hoping so. I have been trying to do some research online about getting the mortgage paid up on and some help with the taxes. If I can get myself back on track, I will do fine. I am trying to have a good attitude about things.  I just want some sunshine and I think that I will feel better. I love taking walks and being outside. My mother is coming to pick up the kids for a week and a half on the 10th. I will miss them but I need the break. She wants me to come too but I think I will stay home and just enjoy the quietness but on the othe hand, it would be nice to get away.

Chewy is doing well but I think I am going to have to find a new home for him. He is growling at the kids and the other dogs. I dont blame him much. He didnt have a very good start in life. I cant really trust him though. I will try to find him a home with a family without kids. I think the lady who had him before me had let her children treat him badly. Now he doesnt really like kids much. It is such a shame. He is a beautiful dog and I shouldnt have a hard time placing him in a nice home.

Nothing else new has really happened. I guess that is a good thing for me. lol

I hope everyone staya safe and sound. You are all in my prayers.

Toothaches are awful, Christine! I hope the antibiotics help. I also hope you get your sunshine back so you can go for those walks!

Big hugs,

Just a quick line. I am going to be taking a break from journals for a while. Right now I have sooo much to do. Finding it hard keeping up right now. Maybe when I get things done I can post some pictures and feel a little less tired. lol Keeping you and your family in my prayers. Hugs, Janie

Hello, I found your journal through someone else's journal and I like reading other peoples blog so here I am reading yours.  I happened to notice this blog about your tooth!!!  I recently had a root canal on one tooth but before they did it I was in HORRIBLE pain, so much I would have rather died than keep being in pain.  I tried many things and the best things were these:  Peanut Butter - the oily kind that you have to stir.  We had some of this and I saw it online and globbed it on my tooth and MIRACULOUSLY it eased the pain in seconds.  Try it.  Yes, its ridiculous to walk around with peanut butter in your mouth, but it does help.  If you can get to a drug store though, get some oragel and place a glob of it right on the tooth and it should help or also bc powder helps as well.  If you can fine hurricane gel, this is the numbing gel they use at the dentists, that works the best.
Good luck, you have less than a month to go!

All i can say is OUCH....... there is nothing worse than toothache. Hope the pain subsides and the meds work.
Enjoy the break when the kids are with their Nan.
Sorry to hear about the dog....but you cant be to careful when it comes to dogs & kids.
