• Things Went Well

  My dentist appointment went well and Halcion (in large doses!!!) seems to be the secret to sedating me.  I didn't take the 3rd and 4th Halcion until AFTER Jesse arrived home - just in case . . .

  Jesse said I was falling asleep on the ride TO the dentist office and he told the receptionist I was the most quiet he'd ever seen me BEFORE an impending, huge dentist visit!  I remember bits and pieces of the visit.  My lower back was grossly uncomfortable and I asked for a pillow.  I DID clunk my shoes together (over and over again) and bongo drum play the armrests of the chair with the palms of my hands.  That's probably when the dentist asked me if I'd like to take a 5th pill - which I took!  I'm also vaguely aware of asking (in a THICK drawl), "So, how are we doin' timewise, y'all?"  The dentist (from Mississippi) burst out laughing, telling me I sounded like I was from his hometown!

  Unbeknownst to me, I was there 2 1/2 (instead of 1 1/2 hours), thus, the reason for my impatience and uncomfortable back.  I think the dentist must have been juggling patients, because it seems like he was gone most of the time.  His assistant finished up the final process of fitting the temporary crown.  This was the only time Jesse stayed in the waiting room the WHOLE time!  He and the girls were SO BORED!  I barely remember the ride home, woke up 3 hours later in bed wearing all of my clothes except my shoes and headcovering.  I, later, found my shoes neatly lined up in my closet and headcovering put in its box!  I have no recollection of doing that and Jesse says he didn't help.  Around 7:45pm, I woke up and came out to the kitchen.  Jesse told me they had eaten Sonic burgers and there was one leftover for me.  I went to the garage to get a new package of American cheese, cut it open, took out a slice, put the cheese in a Ziplock bag, heated the meat and melted the cheese, put the burger back together, ate it, and told Jesse I thought I'd go back to bed!!!  IN my nightgown, I slept until 6 this morning.  I found all of my clothes hung neatly in my closet this morning!

  I must cook so much, that it's rote for me to slap together a cheeseburger and find my way through the darkened garage refrigerator while sleepwalking!

  Today, I am trying to get back into the swing of things.  Laundry, dishwasher, cook dinner, etc.  The appointments on Monday and Tuesday have thrown me off schedule.  Sure doesn't take much!  And I feel discombobulated. 

  Jesse is working double time for the next 3 days and I've planned spaghetti for dinner tonight.  Not his favorite thing to eat, but he doubts he'll be home until very late.

  I need to get Luci to daycare, it's already past 10am.
