My toothy

Ok so today I had my baby canine on my right side pulled... Yipee.

I just got up after taking a nap when I got home, and a blueberry banana smoothie was awaiting me! I finally found a place that does them as good as Thirsty's used to do.

Anyway my appointment was for 12:30, and I was not allowed to eat anything six hours prior to that or drink anything 3 three hours prior. So I got up at 6 to eat half of a muffin then went back to sleep.

My Momma drove me to the office, and we waited in the lobby for a while before being asked to sign some papers, and then finally one of the operators called for me! I was seriously hungry at this point and wanted to eat the oxygen tube that they put in my nose. :)

After that the actual Doctor spent fifteen minutes trying to get my IV started in the crook of my right elbow. This didn't go to well. Three needles and a kind of sore hand later, he remarked, "Girl, you have veins as thick as aluminum tubes!" I asked if that was bad and he replied, "Well, that means you won't be popping nay blood vessels anytime soon, but i can't get you IV started."

I shall take the lesser of two evils thank you very much! :)

After that he got a vein to pop up in my wrist, and it only took one shot. So he hooked me up to the machine and told me the series of shots he would administer to me via my IV. The first would make me relax, the second would make me feel like I was floating and probably made me laugh, but I don't remember. After that he put in the sleeping one and I was out.

The next thing I know I have an entire roll of gauze stuck in my mouth, I can't feel my nose and lips, and the operators face in front of me was kind of twisted. I'll admit I wanted to reach out an squeeze her cheek to see if she was real! LOL.

About five minutes later I was seeing straight and loaded into a wheelchair to be brought to my car.

The ride home was uneventful, but I did get myself a 40 oz. smoothie from Smoothie King! YUM!!!!! Upon arriving home I took a few sips of my smoothie, said hi to my siblings, and collapsed on my Moms bed for three hours.

And now here I am the right side of my lip still numb (whenever i drink water it just slips out this side of my mouth... :/) and my baby canine missing!

All in all I had a pretty good day, and I'm allowed to eat again!!!!! WHOOHOO
