I have serious toothache today. I did make some plans last night but this morning had to go to the dentist who says I have an infection in the wound site.
ughhhhhhhhhhhh.
its bearable so long as I don't eat (!)
some many other things are infruiating me today it is ridiculous - it is partly the pain!
have to go out too which is annoying cos today is really a day for staying in and staying asleep.Nevertheless she persisted.0 -
Poor Buffy love, I can identify with lots of the things which are getting you down, there is nothing worse than toothache and if work is stressful and it is hard to relax at home, it is hard to wind down. This time of year gets me down too, I went to Arg0s to buy some wheel trims for the car and they were playing 'merry xmas everyone', then I went to the post office for a stamp and they offered me a credit card..seriously, what the ****!
Any way, I would offer you a glass of Lambrini but it might interfere with your meds, so I will send you a virtual hug instead xx'Forget injuries, never forget kindnesses' - Confucious0 -
I do have plans.
They involve going to pets at home and buying the gerbils a new cage. And then coming back to do my work. ho hum. Tooth hurts like a !!!!!. I would write a more detailed explanation but frankly need to keep busy to take my mind off the pain! sounds pathetic I know, thank you for the lovely messages

Guess what?
I HAVE TOOTHACHE.
I have to take my car to the mechanics on Saturday too so frankly money wise I may as well be burning five pound notes this weekend. Oh and I am also meant to be going out twice as well. I want to rearrange my bedroom too, need space to work, MUST do my bloody Masters (not to mention marking galore!)Work has been grim, even my second job is getting me down. There have been changes and I don't like them. I have managed for about a year with them but now its not go back to being fun I am seriously considering my position there.
So yeah things are pretty stressful here.
am ok tho. bearing up, haven't killed anyone or threatened to throw myself under a train or drive into a tree to alleviate the pain.

Well done - it's so hard to keep going when the world seems to be conspiring against you!
As it's coming up to xmas, there might be some temp jobs around - is that something you could look into once your tooth feels better? A change is as good as a rest and all. Also then you would have the immense satisfaction of telling your second job to stick it.0 -
I did once love my second job, I still do but not with the pressure of the first one being such a night mare.
I haven't marked anybooks this weekend which is very bad. Friday I went out to my friends, Saturday I had to get the car fixed and that took most of the day, then Saturday night I went out, felt really ill tho, like I am coming down with down with something. I have had a sore throat and earache all day.
I have tidied my room AGAIN and cleaned out all the animals. am so tired.
Moneywise. hmmm. need to check online banking..................bit scared!
xxNevertheless she persisted.0 -
Right I checked online banking and all is well I swopped some money over to stop me being over drawn. I do need to check the Tesco's bill which could be a problem.
Just checked it.
hmmm. November's pay is already spoken for!!! the dentist plus car......... *counts on fingers* equals 2000. gulps. all my savings.....
after that its MA time, 1800 pounds.
ugh........................well onward and upwards or something like that!
