[...] It may have been unnoticed here, but it was fabulously acknowledged in real life. Bill threw a party, all my best friends were invited, and I was feted in a lovely manner. Although Bill had specified “no gifts” on the invitation, several people did bring small presents, including our orthodontist, Dr. H. I was happy to see a present from him, as I assume that means he regards me as a source of everlasting revenue, and not an overburdened mother who tries to squeeze too much orthodontia into too little time. I grew up with his wife and finally persuaded her to come to Jazzercise where we grapevine together several mornings a week, and I suspect she was the brains behind this particular celebratory item.

P.S. - Super thanks for the Beyonce song link. It is now my theme song.

Girl - I feel your pain. Fur real. I too grind my teeth in times of stress and I chew through the bite guards. Since my hubby abandoned me with a new baby and a toddler for his Russian personal trainer (I wish I were joking) I think I have had 3 root canals and 6 crowns. I have blocked the actual number out because the dental work has cost more than my divorce. I have cracked 3 of those teeth just since August. I probably would be that lady in the Dust Bowl pictures with one toof and sunken cheeks if it weren’t for my mom and dad. And as much as I hate going to the dentist (I get novocaine when I get a cleaning, plus cry and shake the whole time- FUN!) I am grateful for modern dentistry. Otherwise I would have to live on smoothies. It’s important to look on the bright side of things. Blegh.

Girl……… okay, you are a good mother and you do deserve stars in your crown. I have no flowers, but I could fedex you some pie if you think it would be helpful.

As to the avalanche of medical crap - I can empathize. We are going to get our own parking space if we show up at the hospital / pediatrician’s / primary’s / dentist’s / obgyns/ shrink’s/ One. More. Time.

Seriously. I should have just gone to med school.

I’ve always been told that it’s not nice to laugh at the misfortune of others, but Anne, when you write them down like that! I’m so sorry for all the issues that keep cropping up, and hope that things will simmer down soon. And that you will keep your fabulous sense of humor and outlook, because it makes the rough spots easier to bear. *E-hug*

Nothing is coming easily to you, is it? I”m so sorry. Mostly I wish for the comfort your mother would offer you with something special from her garden. You’ve successfully equated that horrid song to pain for me now. But don’t mess with Beyonce, ok? I really like her. She, for me, is equated with doing lots of planks and sit-ups for her great tummy so I must love her with all I’ve got.

Feel better.

And I meant to say that this year has got to get better, and you certainly deserve some smooth sailing.

I’m with you on which chair I prefer too. At least the GYN is over quickly, at the dentist you’re sitting there painfully for over an hour.
