I did weigh in Monday morning and I was right about where I thought I would be. A few pounds up… not bad. Certainly nothing to stress over. It’ll just be a matter of getting myself back out for my walks and being sure to eat right. I have been working on making better choices again. Really I haven’t gotten too far off course. My main downfall was a sugary cereal in the morning instead of a healthy one. I’ve remedied that. I plan to get back out on the sidewalk at lunch starting next week. Now, before you go and ask why wait I have to say that it’s end of month at work and I don’t even take my lunch break because I’ve got far too much to do.

 I’ve been kind of quiet since my last blog. I’ve been quiet in my real life as well. I guess however I am in one area is how I am in all the others too. I’ve been quiet because the pain is back. Not in my tooth so much this time. It’s in my cheek and often spreads through my jaw and sometimes up into my forhead. I keep debating on if it is my tooth, my sinuses, or something else. I don’t know if I should see my doctor or dentist… and it doesn’t matter anyway since I can’t take any time off right now to see either. I’ve used almost all of my vicodin from the dentist… been taking my husbands tramadol during the day since he isn’t using it and it doesn’t make me sleepy… and eating a steady diet of ibuprofen all day to keep the pain at bay. I kind of feel like I’ve been smiling too much. You know what I mean? When you’ve smiled so much your face hurts? That’s how I feel most of the time.

My poor little Jamie started running a temperature tonight too. Since Grandma and grandpa are here I can let her stay home tomorrow and not worry. They picked the right time to visit! Hopefully she will be better tomorrow.
