Monday: Root canal. Thankfully it was a piece of cake. To my surprise, I never felt any pain. I watched television throughout the whole procedure and the time flew by. It is amazing how much easier a dental procedure is when you are wearing headphones and don't have to hear the sounds of the drill or listen to the dentist chit-chatting with the assistant. I left the office and went straight to Chick-Fil-A!
Tuesday: I had a phone interview with the nutrition department for the CDC NHANES test. It was very boring but at least I made some extra cash. :-)
Friday: My dad had his OTHER shoulder replacement surgery. He now has two titanium shoulders. We are thanking God that this surgery went much smoother than the last. The Dr. said this shoulder was in really bad shape and that he had to clean out a lot of bone fragments and spurs, but it was much better than the first one. After the first surgery the Dr. told us that it was one of the worst shoulders he had ever seen. Dad came home from the hospital today and is doing really well. He was happy to get home in time to watch the end of The Masters tournament. He can't wait to start playing golf again in about 3 months.
It has been a while so I wanted to share a couple of photos of the dogs. I took this picture of Balto several weeks ago:
Here's one I took today. Balto LOVES to sit on the back porch and watch the outside world.
And...here's Blossom begging for food.
Glad to hear the root canal and your Dad's surgery went well. I don't know if I would be thinking about playing golf so soon after shoulder surgery. It must mean he feels a lot better.
ReplyDeleteLove the pooch pictures. Balto looks quite mellow. I take it he's been settling in. Are the two of them still chewing everything they can get their teeth into?
