I Survived...

Somehow I made it through the traumatic dental visit without giving myself a coronary or a stroke.  It was difficult and happened to include a great deal of shaking and heart-palpitations but I'm now back at home much calmer than before.  Of course I still can't feel my face so that's been fun...

Because of this fear of doing anything that would require me using my mouth or the parts of my face that were numb (i.e. all of them), I've spent a great deal of time online getting ideas on how to be all crafty and such.

~ Mother Daughter Photos: How easy is this?  I know most of the shots are a little weird but it's a fun idea to do even without the wonky outfits.

~Using apps to print Instagram photos: I attempted a few months ago to upload a regular old Instagram up to Costco Photo Center and failed miserably.  The little square photos were stretched into 4x6 size and looked rather like pixelated surveillance footage instead of priceless pieces of artwork.  If it this process goes like they say it does (and without uploading to Costco yet, it's going quite smoothly so far), I'm going to be one happy camper once I start doing fun things to Instagram, which might just lead to this little beauty.

~Christmas cards, and stamps and paper and scrap ideas...you get the picture.  I know it's a little early but if I'm going to knock out homemade cards, I really have to get a move on.  No stress this year, that's my mantra.  That ought to last until next week at least : )

~Can't wait to read this book! Food, Paris and Julia Child: what could be better?!

You and I are kindred spirits when it comes to dreading going to the dentist!!!! Ugh. I HATE going to the dentist as well. I had to have a cavity filled last Thursday (my first one ever) and I was just NOT happy. It was bad enough having to go there the week before for a cleaning but then being told I had to come back and get this cavity filled was awful.

Glad someone agrees with me Stef! It was seriously traumatic! : ) Hope you're feeling better now!
