Mike and I had both avoided the dentists since before we even started dating. We figured since it had been 8 years for me and over 10 for Mike that we should bite the bullet and go in. Like everything in our marriage we had bets going on who'd do better. I kicked Mike's butt in the cavities department but the dentist told me that I needed to get my wisdom teeth out.
I'm not going to lie I was a nervous wreck the night before. I have never been put out for anything and the thought of it terrified me. Since I only needed two out they didn't need to put me out so I was a lot calmer. The whole process took about 30 minutes and I think I got about 10 shots in my mouth. I'm such a dork because I was so proud that the dentist told me I did really well and was a good patient. (I'm sure I just looked terrified so he was trying to calm me.)
I did well with the recovery for an hour or so and then I needed the prescribed vicodin. For the next couple of days I was in a daze but was pain free. I was surprised how quickly everything went back to normal. Within a few days I was able to eat and was no longer in pain.
I have to give a shout out to the Bock family because I got the sweetest care package with applesauce, pudding, cookies and drawings from the girls. It made me feel so special! Also my mom made a shake run for me and was nice enough to get Mike dinner too!! Thanks Mom!
Ok I realize these are terrible pictures of myself but I really don't care! lol!
