Filling

I had a goal...and I hate when I don't accomplish something I set out to do.  My dentist appointment last Tuesday brought much disappointment...I learned that I had my first cavity.  The dentist could see how upset I was over his findings.  My daughter however blurted out, "That's pretty good, Momma, especially since you hardly ever brush your teeth!"  I have come to terms with the fact that my Princess was born without a filter.

So, today I tried to relax in the chair while half my face was numb and my tooth was getting drilled out...if that doesn't scare me in to brushing twice a day, I don't know what will.  It was a first.  Not a first that I was hoping a waiting for, but it was a first.  I didn't make it to my 30th birthday cavity free.  I have a horrible headache and my jaw is killing me...but it didn't take away my sweet tooth...and that half can of frosting seemed to make all my troubles seem so far away for the time being.
