It's Been a Long Week

It's been a very long week here at my house; so long that I haven't even been able to write a post or visit many of you, and for that I do apologize.  We are all excited for the Holiday but we got a little derailed as Ma had a terrierible toothache which came on quite suddenly and ended up needing a root canal.  I say, she should've been chewing her dental treats more regularly!

I have been taking good care of Ma as her root canal was quite painful since the tooth was infected (abscessed).  I've made sure we had our big walks in the mornings and other big walks in the afternoon sunshine.  I think it helped her feel better.

We have had beautiful weather here all week.  Lots of sunshine and cooler temperatures (in the 60F range)...great weather for walking and sitting in the grass.

How was your week?  Are you all set for your Holiday celebrations?

  20. OMD a CANAL in her toof's ROOTS??? OMD OZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz that is TERRIBLE to hear about... A Canal is NOT a good thingy to have anywhere NEAR her teefs... We are so very much sorry to hear this... Was her cheek all swelled up like when a Squirrel stores NUTS in his cheek??? OMD that would be HORRID...
    Of course she will be MUCH better now that you are tending to her EVERY need and whim and wish and want... Peeps are really NEEDIE you know...

  22. Hi Oz, You'll have to tell your mom I had a root canal last week-apparently I had an infection going for over two years before it abscessed. I'm hoping I don't ever need another one. Hope you have a wonderful weekend and Merry Christmas!

  32. Oh your poor mom! I have had many tooth troubles in my life, starting with knocking out my front teeth at age 13. In my thirties I had a badly abcessed tooth just like your mom, and the pain was unbearable. The only good thing is the root canal means that tooth never hurts like that again. Take good care of her Oz. (terrible time for dental woes too)

  33. So sorry to hear about your Mom's root canal, Oz, that is no fun at all. At least you had some nice weather to help her feel better....we've had clouds here for well over a week now (we finally have sunshine this morning).
    We are busy getting ready for Christmas and off to our first family party out of state today. Hope your Mom is feeling much better now, have a great weekend!
