    Hiya,

    Sorry to hear that you're still suffering. I had my upper wisdom tooth out last week and it was very easy, less discomfort than a filling really. Afterwards i had no problems, just ate on the other side for a few days. Until i read your diary today i had almost forgotten that i'd had it taken out.

    Hope you get it sorted soon! Ps i have some health cover called paycare. it covers the family for dental / opticians fees up to around £175 a year. I have only just changed to it from denplan, but lots of my friends have recommended it to me. They say they that they get back what they pay into it!! i will wait and see! Got my eye test booked already~!

    Good luck with it!

    Morning!

    Well i'd like to say i'm up and going off outside to enjoy the sunshine but sadly not. Overtime day today, but working from home so that's something!

    All quiet on the tooth front at the mo (fingers crossed!) even allowed me to go for a curry and beers last night without arguing with me :p Let's hope it stays that way for now!

    Miss Mental - thanks for the info re health cover - OH were just discussing this the other day and were thinking about looking into something, will have a little look.

    Hope everyone has something nice planned for their weekends - it's BEAUTIFUL out there - i'm defo off out this evening for a walk once finished work :D

    Thanks Kel, had a lovely relaxing afternoon and evening. Just nursing me a nice glass of rose. Supposed to be doing overtime tomorrow but undecided as to whether I will do it - money wise yes, sanity perhaps no :o

    If you can't be bothered then I'd have the day off, no point in having the extra money if it makes you feel crap :)
    Enjoy the rose smiley-eatdrink043.gif

    Thanks Kel, opted not to do the overtime and have a day to myself and can honestly say it's done me the world of good. Spent a bit too much money but everything needed so not something I could avoid really.

    OH is due home soon, had an 4:30am start this morning :eek: he's going to be a tired bunny but will be lovely to have the evening together.

    So, another week ahead - got some trips up to London for work :( No sleep and no money - hate it! Still it's work and rather that than no job at all I guess.

    Going to sit and look at my money later, been putting it off as know it's not going to be pretty but hey ho, better to know than get in a worse situation isn't it?

    Hope everyone is having a good day x
