Slaying my Debts

Buffythedebtslayer

I had to take today off work, toothache was SO bad.

I moved the last of my savings(finally figured out how to telephone bank with this account!!) to pay off my OU credit card.

asked for a vague quote from dental nurse, she said it would cost 2000- 3000 pounds to have the treatment I need

think its time to learn to matched bet or go on the game!!

Kika - all my pets except one are rescues, loads of rats hamsters, guinea pigs(to tempt you!!) are in need of homes. I guess most people think of only homeless dogs and cats but lots of other animals are available.

I have my year nine on wed and am being observed. oh joy.

I have my free up grade phone - an n73 which I cannot get on with at all. and side from toothache, I have loads of work. really should have done that today rather than faffing for england. although I did move some money round I guess which is good.

wish I could be more chatty bt my tooth hurts so I am off to sulk
cheers

I'm so sorry to hear about toothache it really does drain you. I may need root canal, decision in august but at least I'm not in real pain more dull ache. We have a rescue bunny, it had a friend but it dug out and fence now goes even deeper. We have tunnels under lawn now,if I disappear you 'll know I'm stuck in hole.:laugh:

Hi!

Aw, poor you:grouphug:. Toothache is a pain (literally!).

Good luck with your observation on Wed. I am being observed twice next week. Once by my HoD and once by my mentor:eek: And with year 9 :eek: :eek:

There are indeed many pets to rescue. And they are ever so grateful. I love my 2 guinea pigs

Have a relaxing evening and I hope you find something to soothe the pain.

Do you have to give up OU? How much have you done? Could you not take a break? It seems such a pity to give up altogether, Although I'm struggling with my course I don't want to give the whole thing up.

My dentist talked about removing the tooth and building on top of it, I just hope root canal is cheaper and less painful as i don't like dentists.

Hi Buffy!

If there is one area where you can't be blamed for spending money, this is your health! But in the name of Zeus, this is expensive :eek:

Kika: I don't like dentists either. Although so far I have been very lucky (touch wood!!) as I have never had any problem!

Good night!

I don't want to give up exactly,i do think that would be a kind of cop out. its, well ok I live with my Mum, its not how I imagined my life but my Dad died 18 months ago and its just been so hard. I miss him so much it feels impossible. Mum is obviously lonely and I have gone from being able to sit in my room all night and study/work/come and go as I please, to sort of keeping her company and sitting in living room - its not that I don't want to do that,I do but I know I should be up here working but then Mum is on her own so much(all day every day), I am very torn. Mum is more important to me then anything else. I was originally at home to save for a house we had so many plans. but I don't want to get in to that on here. thats done now. I have for the last two nights - due to teeth! spent time up here writing reports and doing school stuff and I know she has been sort of sad?

so I had a think tonight in between writing reports and decided I had best find a way to work properly downstairs, the laptop on my lap it rubbish, I have windows vista and the new word ( both rubbish) and really you need a table so you can use a mouse to answer the endless panicky questions it asks you. and there is no where to put books etc either. too much of a balancing act.

so its not very mse but i ordered a laptop table from Argos, it means i will be able to work downstairs, and keep Mum company. I can't say I really like sitting up here much either! so its a good idea.

Long term that solves one problem but short term I don't know what to say to my tutors,I am the excuse queen.

I will think about that tomorrow. now it should be reports!

I had root canal and filling, which was ok for ages(and I don't remember it being hidedously expensive), then it broke and i had a crown (built on top of tooth) which cost 475, crown came off and what is left of my tooth has now (or rather Friday) cracked and so will be removed.

I loathe dentists too, am having valium to get me through it all!!
