Pain free Saturday

 I was so glad that I woke up this morning and there was no residual pain where the teeth were extracted yesterday! Before I went to bed last night I took one ibuprofen and amoxicillin and that was it. Now I have like a whole bottle of ibuprofen that I don't know what to do with and this is super strength ibuprofen. The amoxicillin I'll continue to take until I run through the whole regimen. But the other medications I took or was supposed to take if I had the pain was one of those chemicals that totally gets you messed up and addicted I don't need that. Of course the bleeding stopped through the evening when I went to bed I threw away the last of the cotton gauze that I had in there in the evening invite morning I guess everything had stopped. I could feel it felt like all the stitches on Earth in the holes left by the extraction. Other than that though I don't feel any pain at all or anything at all except for occasionally touching the sutures with my tongue. I just hope that my mouth heals quickly and that I don't worry the stitches out which I think I sort of did the last time I had them in my mouth. I can't remember if it's just one week or two weeks I have to go before I return to get a check up on how the healing is coming and do they need to remove the stitches/sutures. I don't know if I'm going to be able to keep the stitches in myself that long. It's kind of surprised it how much food wanders up into the area when I eat on the other side of my mouth as I've been doing the last day or so especially the grape skins and the skins from the beans that's in the concoction. I've got to be careful that those don't get caught up into the sutures.


Today was cloudy but the temperature was fairly decent getting up to about 61° with that in mind I decided I would catch the bus and go up to Walmart and get my glasses fixed. It was a fast trip thank goodness I didn't have to wait long before the 217 came. I was a little worried about what they're going to say about how destroyed the glasses were frames Etc. I just wanted the technician to bend the glasses back into subserve acceptable condition so they weren't falling off my head constantly. But I found out that a new pair of Frank would cost just $18! So I got a new set of frames with my lenses put into the new set and so it's like a new pair of glasses. The frames fit snug on my head and I feeling great to wear my glasses again something they won't fall off every time I turn my head. I just have to be responsible enough to make sure I know where the glasses are all the time better yet be responsible enough to place the glasses in accident-free zone that there won't be any way I can destroy the frames with my chair. That's a lot to ask for can be done
