Yesterday I had "oral surgery" which is a nicer way of saying I had 8 teeth yanked from my head ;-/ I underwent general anesthesia so the process was painless. So far I have some swelling but no significant pain. I took two Vicodin yesterday, one right away after I woke up and got to the pharmacy and one later in the evening before bed. So far today I have not felt like I needed to use it. I have been taking Ibuprofen for the inflammation but that is all. I'm on a course of penicillin during the healing. On Friday I'm going in to my primary dentist, hopefully to get the dentures that should have been ready yesterday. Though I'm "missing" those teeth now it's not much different really since they were mostly gone anyway. At the start of the new year our company switched dental insurance and for a while there they were trying to deny service to me because I needed to wait 12 months. However, after working with our company, they decided to waive that provision, it really would have been unfair not to and they saw that. As a result instead of another thousand dollars I would have had to pay I ended up paying only twenty dollars over what I'd already paid.
Yesterday afternoon Serenity's former school called up to ask where she was, they hadn't yet received our letter from last week. I informed them that she is now attending Serenity School. The person on the phone said they would miss her because they all loved her, but wished us well, she was very nice about it actually. We'll see if they send the records or not, though I don't see that as vital anyway.
So now things are calming down for me, the combination of starting Serenity School and having teeth pulled was really stressing me out there for a while. Oh, there was one other thing, I was worried about and that was how our day care provider, Natalie, would react to the idea of our homeschooling Serenity but she was very positive and seemed to think the idea was wonderful. She even said we can send work with her on her days there if we want to and she will help out!
Prayers are requested that we might continue to settle into our new lifestyle without too much anguish, so far the Lord has given us smooth sailing.
Thanks be to God.
