The end is nigh. The point of no return. The grand finale.
This is where you, the reader can feel free to insert whatever dramatic quote you like. I was thinking of a bit of Dylan Thomas myself. Or even a bit of Shakespeare, the bard is always handy for a descriptive word or two.
Not into poetic quotes? What about a Doors song then? ‘ The End’ seems remarkably apt.
Scratching your head yet? Wondering what on earth I am blathering on about this time?
Sorry.
Fear makes me a little more scatterbrained than usual.
Today, in approximately three hours I am having all my teeth taken out. The whole twelve of them that I have left that is. All my teeth will be unceremoniously yanked out. One by painful one. Then I will be sent home with a brand new set of shiny plastic choppers.
So what are you doing today my lovelies?
Tell me a story to cheer me up. Come out of lurkerdom and say “Hello Kimmy”
It would be very nice to come home from the dentist and be totally distracted from the pain and the dreadful lisp by your fantastic comments. It would be especially nice to see where some of my lurkers come from.
If you need me in the next two hours or so, I will be hiding under the bed.Shhhh.

heh, bite me.
OMG bite me is so funny. And once the deed is done, they can stay pearly white with a bit of bleach every now and then. I think. And? No more dentist. Sorry, that’s the best I can do.
Oh Kim!
(((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))

@xbox No, she can’t any longer. And I am so not going to go where my mind want to take this.
*hugs* I am hoping they are going to send you home with some marvelous loopy pills!
arrrrrghhhhhhh. I can’t stand going to the dentist…….
I’ll be thinking of you honey.
I am so sorry! Rest, rest, rest and take all the meds you need. Hugs Kim.
hubby had all of his ripped out a bit over 2 years ago. And he feels so much better for it!
No painful teeth, no painful dentists visits, no more being embarassed to smile…… You’ll feel like a new woman after the first couple of days are over with.
good luck! 🙂
I vividly remember the day my mum had all of hers out. I was seven. She had them out in hospital under general anaesthetic. I came home from school and mum was in bed, smelling horrible and with a mouth full of dried blood. She wanted me to climb up on the bed and give her a hug because she’d been in hospital. I couldn’t even go into the room, the look and smell of her was so bad. I ran away and hid outside. In those days the “new” teeth weren’t fitted immediately.
I read in the paper last weekend where the Japanese have discovered a way to make (mice, I think) grow their own new teeth through some kind of stem cell technology. I wish I could take advantage of that, but it’s still experimental.
Oo, you are SO, SO brave getting this done. I’ll be sending love & positive non hurty thoughts! I’m also going to go post a sunset photo on my blog for you to look at when you get home.
Lots love BG xxx
Have just seen your post so it’s all over now!! Hope you’re high on drugs and painfree!
Oh my goodness! Your poor thing! I hope that it is not too painful although I am sure you feel completely wretched!
xx
But you don’t have a lisp! (dammit. I could have mocked you)
Bendy’s sunset is lovely.
Hello Kimmy! I’m coming out of lurkerdom to wish you and your choppers well and to say thank you for your blog. A quick search found this for you: What did the judge say to the dentist? “Do you swear to pull the tooth, the whole tooth and nothing but the tooth?” Best wishes from Glenelg, South Australia.
I have a similar memory to River’s but I was 10. Mum had been in to have all of her top teeth removed and at the time they didn’t fit your new dentures until a few weeks later. The day after having her teeth out we had a quick trip to Macca’s for some thickshakes (something to numb Mum’s mouth). Her order was for 3 chocolate thickshakes. But when Mum tried to order it didn’t sound anything like 3 chocolate thickshakes thanks. It was more like shhree shhocolate shhickshakes shanks. The girl at the drive through window was trying so hard not to laugh. But myself, my two sisters and my Aunt were in hysterics! That is a family story that gets relived at least once a year.
My 3 year old is going in on November 4th for his first set of dentures as he has a rare genetic disorder where one of the problems is him not having any teeth (ever). So if you have any tips about things that work for ulcers and other such ailments while you are wearing your new chompers in I’d love to hear them.
Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery.

so…..that means that by now it is all over and done with. do you feel better? lol.
Today I took the pram and Emily for a rediculously long walk. We also both have a cold and I’ve been up for 2 days straight because she wont sleep anywhere except in my arms.
Got any natural rememdies? We both have runny nose, I have sore throat and headache, she has runny eyes and coughing.
She is constantly whimpering and looking very sad.
Well, the bright side of this situation is now when you go to parties, you can flip your dentures out and scare all of the children at the delight of all of the adults…. Maybe not all of the adults, but I will be there in spirit cheering you on and flipping my eyelids inside out.
Take care:-)
OMG xbox KILLS ME.
I’m late to the party–even though it’s only 10:30AM my time….and by now you’re all kinds of loopy on pain killers. I hope.
Today… today I found out that I can no longer get my thyroid meds. No ifs, ands, or buts, I’m off ’em cold turkey. I’ve spent my morning using the F word a lot.
Oh dear. Hopefully by now you are pleasantly drugged and smiling at the pretty stars all over this page…
Pretty stars…. pretty st…
Big hugs and I hope you got some really good meds to tide you over for the next few days.
Oh, I hope it went well and you are all hopped up on pain meds!!! Poor girl! Here’s to a quick recovery!!!!!
Good luck babe.
I hope you get to keep em. Just imagine the fun you can have! A tooth under your pillow every night, you could make a fortune!
Drop one in a pie, a glass of bubbly, decorate a cake!
Oooh dear, I missed that one. Awwww. Come here dear ((((hugs)))
you are one brave girl!!
I need this to be done.but lack the finances ATM.
sending gentle hugs and healing thoughts.
