Ouch! Chipmunk Cheeks

So last week I had a toothache. I got an appointment for Monday morning at the dentist. I expected to have to have a cavity filled. WRONG!!! The dentist said it wasn't a cavity, but my molar which I had lost a filling on a few months ago. And oh yea, the absess was so bad he couldn't in good conscience let me leave the office without fixing it. Fixing it in this case meant pulling and oh by the way while we're there we're going to take the wisdom tooth which is impacted far in your jaw and into the nerves too. So with nothing other than a local anesthetic, I had two teeth pulled out. Because of the pregnancy, they couldn't put me under like they usually would. They did give me a pain killer (a Demorral derivitive) that they said was okay. It however made me sick to my stomach. I then found out that my doctor (OB) didn't want me to take that drug. So now I am stuck with plain old tylenol up to 3 times a day - not nearly enough.

On to good news! On Tuesday, Sara and her boyfriend Ricardo went to Toledo for dinner and he proposed to her. So now its official. They have set the date for August 18, 2007, which will be mine and Tim's 6th anniversary. I think that is really cool that they want to get married on the same day. She is planning a huge fiesta because Ricardo's family is so big. They are going to have something like 11 bridesmaids and groomsmen! I will be one of them and Kennedy will be the flower girl. There is so far only one glitch in their plans. He's Catholic and she's Presbyterian. So all you Catholics know what that means. . . Sara will have to convert. That ought to be interesting.

Well, I better go ice my face!
P.S. Jaime, what's your e-mail address? Mine is tembmurray@earthlink.net

Melissa,
Sara DOES NOT have to convert! Don't let them tell her other wise. Adam is Luthern and we were married Catholic. As long as one of the 2 are Catholic. The 2 priests in Adrian are really good about it. They won't have any problems and if they do, tell her to call me. My people will take care of it.
