MIA…….

Feeling a little down on myself again, but sticking to plan. I had my dentist appointment yesterday! I knew I had a couple teeth that were issues, but it was even worse than that. The dentist is going to actually send me estimates of a couple different routes I can take as far as getting my teeth fixed depending on what my insurance will cover and what I will have to pay. I went on line my insurance company has a cost estimater and although that is what it is an estimater, it doesn’t look good so far. So far it looks like I will probably have to pay another 500 dollars on top of what my insurance covers! I am like I may need to get a second job just to get my teeth fixed. The thing that gets me is I have always taken care of my teeth, but we have had no dental insurance in so long I have not been able to go to the dentist! I am so discouraged at this point, but I won’t give in to my old ways. I want to be able to smile without wondering if people can see my bad teeth. I think some people think I am a sour puss because I don’t smile easily because I am so self conscience of how I look.

Woo Hoo! I am so excited I have an unexpected three day weekend! No, school on Monday for teachers confrences! I can always use a ME day!

I hope you all have a good weekend!

Big HUGS!

    Hi
    I am sorry also to hear that the denist is a pain in the butt. We have had so much trouble its unreal. My daughter went in to have 1 filling done and a cleaning, and they filled 6 teeth and didn’t tell her till they were done that they did it, and then billed her another 200 and we told her to tell them no! and she did, but they took it off her bill, and told her to see another denist. You really have to watch those guys. I am so proud to see that your not letting those denist people ruin your health! Just be Da—ed if they will mess with that. And go ahead and smile, because you heart is bigger than ever! and if they can’t see that, then puff them away.
    Got to go–God Bless—Mary

    Bette Jo, those of who are that superficial about your teeth you don’t need to be around them anyways ! I do understand that having teeth issues is hard but doesn’t mean you are less of a person ! Enjoy that extra day off ! Hugs, kimmi
