I had planned to write an amusingly-phrased update of our two horses (both fine), but I’m so tired I can’t see straight. Two weeks and counting of antibiotics and OTC pain meds will do that. Dentist again tomorrow at 9 am to discuss plans. I’ve already been to the ER the Sunday before Christmas, seen the dentist once, and visited the endodontist for a failed root canal redo. It’s been a lovely holiday season around here.
The good news is that I may have been wrestling with a low-grade tooth/jaw infection for a while, possibly years. That’s good news because fixing it might go a long way to invigorating my attitude. I might finally have the enthusiasm to work with Rodney and the energy to tackle horse shopping.
As I said elsewhere, my teeth have always been bad. OTOH, heart, skeletal, digestive, etc. systems appear to be ticking along without much supervision. So that’s good.
G’night. It’s daylight as I write this, but it’s bed o’clock somewhere.

Sounds like a truly memorable Christmas. I hope your dentist gets to the root of the problem quickly 😉
Seriously, are you looking at an extraction? Failed endodontic treatment doesn’t augur well. Good luck with it, whatever treatment you decide on.
I recently found your blog via HayNet. Still playing catch up but I’m loving it.
Root of the problem. Agggg. I must be sick. I hadn’t thought of that.
i’m sorry you’re not feeling well. hope the problem can be tracked and cured very soon.
hi K-
Please take care of yourself!! I hope you feel better soon!!! 🙂 Elizabeth
Hope you can get to the bottom of it and start feeling better soon!! And that it is part of what’s been going on for a while…
Wishing you all the best – Jeff suffers from not the best teeth, and it is so debilitating. Here’s hoping you can get it squared away.
