message 7551: by Shell (new)

Shell (shellcampbell) | 757 comments 3.27pm Just been to the dentist and have to have my top two wisdom teeth taken out next Thursday :/ He thinks it might be why I've been getting earaches so hopefully I wont get sore ears anymore. I'm a bit scared though!


message 7552: by Chris (new)

Chris (cbrunner11) | 674 comments Michelle you will be fine. I had all of my wisdom teeth out at once and the bottom ones were impacted. They had to take out part of my jaw to get it. The first day after was a little rough but I'm sure you will do great. Good luck and I'll make sure to think happy thoughts for you next Thursday.

Also Pumpkin beer is amazing. If I could ship you some I would just so you could try it. Missouri doesn't let you ship alcohol here in the states. If you ever come across some I'd suggest trying it.

12:04AM So tired but just can't sleep. I just want to sleep. Hope everyone is doing well. Good night GR.

Shell (shellcampbell) | 757 comments Thanks Chris, mine are badly impacted too but hopefully I'll be able to handle it as well as you! Did they knock you out or did you just have injections? I'm only having injections darn it! I was hoping they'd give me some happy gas LOL!

I will definitely keep my eye out for some pumpkin beer I'm so amazed by it haha!

Hope you can get some sleep soon, it's so frustrating not getting a good nights sleep.

Thanks again for the words or encouragement I really appreciate it :)

9:09AM Getting ready to make breakfast for Ave's and I. Already have my coffee. Gonna try and read as much as Aeverie will let me today! He is watching Beetlejuice right now. He loves this movie! LOL


message 7555: by [deleted user] (new)

11:29am EDT. Drinking yummy cinnamon coffee and catching up on GR. Emotionally struggling today. My older son who lives with us is back in the psych ward. His problems never seem to end. It's quite stressful. Hoping I can find escape today in some good reading. Puppy cuddled up next to me--worn out after his morning romp. Planning pork chops, roasted broccoli, and baked apples for dinner. I love to cook and it also helps distract me. Just trying not to get sucked down into the abyss again.

Michelle, good luck with your wisdom teeth! I had mine out when I was in high school--you can tolerate just about anything at that age. (I was knocked out.)

Chris, I'm so happy for you!


message 7556: by Katy (new)

Katy (katyas-69) | 1731 comments Chris, you're in Missouri? My dad's people are mostly there. Lovely state.

I had a dentist try to convince me to have my wisdom teeth out when I was 19 because one of them kept rubbing a sore into my gums, but I ended up ignoring it and they all fit. Of course, I'll probably have to have one out anyway 'cause it broke.

11:48 a.m. EDT Managed a few hours of sleep finally. Nothing much planned today other than reading and napping.

10:54PM I am managing to get some reading done. had breakfast and cleaned up the kitchen. Aeverie is being pretty good this AM. I am about to do a short work out, but waiting for a vlog to upload. Then after that more reading I suppose. Like I said earlier as much as Ave's will allow. LOL

Terri I hope you can find some relief in your books and cooking! The emotions can sure get to the deepest part of us especially when it involves our children. You are in my thoughts and prayers today. (((HUGS)))


message 7558: by Chris (new)

Chris (cbrunner11) | 674 comments Michelle I was knocked out for the whole thing. My heart is with you on that and I know it will go well. Being awake has its advantages. You can bit them if he is doing something wrong.

Katy, Yep I am in Missouri. As much as I hate the summers because I don't do well in heat and humidity, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

Teri, I really hope you can find some peace today. I can't imagine the roller coaster you must go through emotionally in this situation. I hope you have a better day.

Janie, I loved Beetlejuice. I need to get that movie. It has been way to long since I have seen it.

12:27PM working tonight and really hoping it's slow tonight. I want to get some reading in. Weather is getting cold here and I love it. Last night it got down to 38. I love the Fall and Winter months.


message 7559: by Katy (new)

Katy (katyas-69) | 1731 comments Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice...

3:21 p.m. EDT Hubby is off late today. It's grey and chilly here in Georgia.

4:11PM just having dinner, stuffed peppers for everyone. YUM! Gonna run to the local DG and get some kitty food, Bandit is out. then gonna run by the park for Aeverie! I have not gotten to read a whole lot :::sigh::: but that is ok, maybe this evening will be better.

Katy you are in trouble now he will be tapping on your door tonight looking to get married! Heh!

Chris I enjoy the movie too, and apparently so does Aeverie. He watches it at least 3 times while he is here.

GeneralTHC 4:34 PM

I'm with you there, Janie; I'll eat it but it's far from my favorite.

Hang in there, Terri, we're all pulling for you.

I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed too back in the late 90s. They hadn't even grown in though, but they were there and it was causing me much discomfort. They put me to sleep with anesthesia. The surgery was nothing, but I remember the recovery being quite unpleasant and not being able to eat normally for a bit. But it wasn't really that bad at all compated to some things I had heard and how I had built it up in my mind. As a matter of fact, I think a root canal was probably worse as far as the pain goes.

Just read about 80 pages. I would be happy if I could get in 200 more today. I just cannot seem to get on a good streak here lately.


message 7562: by Alondra (new)

Alondra Miller 8:31pm ET. contemplating what to read next. Doctor Sleep was awesome and not sure how to follow-up. Must be time for some Hercule Poirot. :D


message 7563: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn (kcanty313) | 1870 comments 8:55 PM. I had a nice workout earlier, and as I was getting in the shower, Mark called to tell me he'd been invited out for a beer with some co-workers. I had to go grocery shopping anyways, so it kind of worked out. After I got a shower, I went grocery shopping and put up the groceries. Then, I made sweet and sour chicken. It was yummy. The dishes are done and now, since Mark is watching a movie, I'm going to try to read.

9:09PM We had a nice time at the park, and pretty much made a new friend at the same time. Very nice gal. Aeverie played pretty hard, he is watching Toy Story, and hopefully this will lead him into night night time. Feeling a little queasy this evening YUCK! Gonna read now till I am sleepy.


message 7565: by Shell (new)

Shell (shellcampbell) | 757 comments Sounds like a yummy dinner Kathryn! Have a relaxing evening :)


message 7566: by Shell (new)

Shell (shellcampbell) | 757 comments Feel better soon Janie, I hope your book distracts you ;)


message 7567: by Katy (new)

Katy (katyas-69) | 1731 comments 1:04 a.m. EDT Hubby must have gone over to one of his coworkers' houses after work, since he's not home yet. Guess he forgot he could text me to tell me... LOL Anyway, hurting really badly tonight, couldn't sleep earlier. Hoping he shows up soon to rub my back for me a bit.

Janie Johnson | 6303 comments Mod
12:10AM Well Derek got home from work and did a fine job of distracting me from my book. :/ LOL Oh well I have not seen him all day so it is fine. But now I guess I will be crawling into bed soon.

Thanks Michelle I feel much better now. Not sure what that was all about though. Is a little weird to me. But I have had that happen before too.

Katy sorry to hear that you are hurting. I know it can't be much fun. Hope you get to feeling better soon.


message 7569: by Katy (new)

Katy (katyas-69) | 1731 comments 1:22 a.m. EDT Hubby finally home, he indeed went over to a coworkers and they played videogames.

Lucy (mesdupmoi) | 336 comments 10.35am GMT

Wondering why my 15m old is so obsessed with watching Mummy on GR when Cbeebies is on on the telly for him.

Besides that, planning my novel for NaNoWriMo next month :) x


message 7572: by Katy (new)

Katy (katyas-69) | 1731 comments 9 a.m. EDT Had hubby rub my back and put some Sore No More on, so I was finally able to sleep for a few hours. I think maybe 5 hours? Anyway, it was nice. I'm awake and hurting again now, though. I really don't want to go back into pain management but I might not have any choice in the matter if this keeps up. Anyway, hubby has to work a long day today, so I'll have to wake him soon and send him off to work.

9:13AM Ave's it yet again watching Beetlejuice. I don't know how he can watch them over and over. LOL I am sitting here on GR and about ready to dive back into House of Leaves. I am also planning on pulling out Seconds Away, Coben's 2nd installment to the Shelter series. I hope that Ave's will let me read today since I have not gotten much read time in this visit. LOL we will see.

Holly | 1184 comments 10:00 am. Have a bit of a headache. Really need to catch up on reading...


message 7575: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn (kcanty313) | 1870 comments 10:27 AM. I slept in this morning. My warm bed just felt too good. Drinking some coffee with pumpkin spice creamer. Yum! Going to focus on Doctor Sleep today and try to get through most of it, and do some job hunting.


message 7576: by Katy (new)

Katy (katyas-69) | 1731 comments Janie, when I was 23 one of my second cousins spent a few weeks with us over the summer out at the ranch. He became obsessed with UHF and watched it at least once a day. Drove my parents nuts, 'cause they'd never liked us kids spending too much time inside watching the tube.

11:28 a.m. EDT Hubby is off to work, I just popped in to watch a few videos I had to skip earlier when he was sleeping. I'll be back to reading soon.


message 7577: by Holly (new)

Holly | 1184 comments Good luck with your job hunting Kathryn!

4:56PM Just had dinner, butter and herb fish, mash potatoes and corn. It was yummy. About to do a work out and then head off to the playground after a shower.


message 7580: by Katy (new)

Katy (katyas-69) | 1731 comments 6:09 p.m. EDT Had a short nap. Hubby was sent home early, about which he is quite psyched. Wonder if we should go grab some food?


message 7581: by Chris (new)

Chris (cbrunner11) | 674 comments 5:56PM Working tonight so I am trying to figure out if I can watch Game one of the World Series online. If I can't make this work I'll be listening to it at least.

Hope everyone has a great night.


message 7582: by Katy (new)

Katy (katyas-69) | 1731 comments 7:33 p.m. EDT Hubby brought home a chunk of Monteray Jack cheese. Mmmm.

Shell (shellcampbell) | 757 comments 11.49am ooops I'm a bit naughty - just ordered a whole heap of books online :/ there goes my book quota for a little while hehe


message 7586: by Chris (new)

Chris (cbrunner11) | 674 comments Enjoy it Michelle. I miss buying books. I have been lucky with getting things form the library I really want but other than Dr Sleep and October List I haven't bought any books. Those were even bought with gift cards I got for Christmas. I pre ordered those so haven't bought a book since January.

8:30PM Half hour left of my shift. Listening to the most frustrating World Series game ever. Been dead for hours so I have read a big chunk of Doctor sleep so far. Gonna keep reading till the day is done here at work.

That's great though Michelle, hope you enjoy them. I just added three hardbacks to my library of the books that I liked on Audible. It's so exciting to see it grow:)


message 7588: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn (kcanty313) | 1870 comments 8:45 PM. Eating taco salad, which I made. It is yummy. After dinner, I am going to make some coffee and read.


message 7589: by Shell (new)

Shell (shellcampbell) | 757 comments Thanks Chris and Susan. I'm going to try not to feel guilty - I figure there are worse things to spend money on. I know what you mean Susan, I love seeing my library grow - it is so nice to be surrounded by books :)

9:01PM Just go the lil man asleep. It does not take much once he gets out of the tub. So now I can read a bit. He has not let me read hardly at all this visit. I will be up awhile reading yay!

Michelle so glad you got to buy some books. We are a little tight this week so I don't think I will be buying any this week. But that is ok I can be patient!


message 7592: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn (kcanty313) | 1870 comments 12:48 AM. Finally made a little progress in Doctor Sleep. Now, it's bedtime and Gizmo girl is here to sleep. :)


message 7593: by Katy (new)

Katy (katyas-69) | 1731 comments 2:22 a.m. EDT Becoming increasingly frustrated by my inability to sleep for very long. My cousin, who teaches 6th grade in the same school as her sister, put up a picture of the two of them dressed as Duck Dynasty. Her sister had a fake beard that looked a little like a mop. It was hilarious.


message 7594: by [deleted user] (new)

5:53am EDT. Up early and really enjoying my coffee. Talked to my son last night, so thankful he is in a safe place. Trying to maintain some hope about his situation. Going to be cold and cloudy today--a good day to stay in and read. Michelle, I'm jealous about your book purchases! I'm like Chris--I use the library almost exclusively. Someday I'll be a book collector again! My hip/leg is really painful the last 2 days. It may be due to the weather. Thank God for pain meds! Hope everyone has a great day! (Chris--sorry the Cards lost!)

8:20AM Been up a couple of hours right along with Aeverie. :/ So I have been trying to catch up here, and Facebook, and my email. LOL Things going on everywhere. We will be taking Aeverie home today but not till around noon because Amy had a meeting to go to. So now he is sitting here with his toast, just finished a movie and he wants to play games. So we will do that I guess. I know he won't let me read before he goes home. LOL have a great day everyone!


message 7596: by Chris (new)

Chris (cbrunner11) | 674 comments 9:41AM busy morning at work getting a lot of stuff done. Hoping to finish up soon so I can read a bit more. Really getting into Doctor Sleep and I hated to have to put it down last night. Won't get to read at my new job so enjoying what I can now.

Thanks Terri, I was so frustrated at that game I turned it off and didn't watch after the 5th inning. Hopefully we can win tonight and bring win it at home. No Hockey till Friday so Baseball is all I have right now sports wise. I really hope your legs feel better. I can't imagine dealing with that every day. I wimp out when my knees act up. Great to see you post though. Also glad to hear your son is getting what he needs where he is. That has to be a load off your mind too.

Hope everyone has a great day, I'll be around most of the day.


message 7597: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn (kcanty313) | 1870 comments 10:05 AM. Man....last night I slept so well, so deep, it was refreshing. I usually sleep so lightly, any noise wakes me up. Drinking some coffee with....ick....sugar-free pumpkin spice creamer. I really wanted pumpkin spice creamer, and all they had was sugar free. I must have wanted it quite badly...lol. Anyways, I am going to read and focus all of my attention on Doctor Sleep, until about three, or unless I finish it.

Chris, hope you have a great day at work. Sorry the Cards lost, but then again, I hate to say it...the Rangers aren't playing so...:(((((

Terri, glad to hear your son is doing a little better. I hope your legs feel better, too.

Janie, only a few more hours! Lol. You crack me up! Oh, I am going to try and subscribe to your YouTube channel.


message 7598: by Chris (new)

Chris (cbrunner11) | 674 comments I love pumpkin spice anything and the creamer is great. Sugar free must be horrible though. That takes almost all the fun out of it. You might as well add some baileys or something to that coffee and at least get something out of it. Thanks for the warning though, if I ever have to choose between no creamer and sugar free I will go with no creamer.


message 7599: by Kit★ (new)

Kit★ (xkittyxlzt) | 345 comments 11:34 a.m catching up. Some taco salad sounds awesome right now, I haven't had breakfast yet. Woke up at 7:30 when babe got home from work, but he talked me into laying back down with him, then I ended up waking up late. Le sigh. Shoulda just stayed up. Oh well. Not doing much today until this evening, then when he goes to work again, me and kid are going to go to my mum's, have some dinner, watch TV or a movie, etc. Fun! Still could go for some taco salad though... :)

Katy (katyas-69) | 1731 comments 11:45 a.m. EDT "I'm just sittin' here just wastin' time..." I'm actually going to re-read a book I read in May because it was just so weird and I now have the sequel and need to read it, and want to remind myself about the first one. Sometimes my bad memory can be a bit of a hassle.
