Mother's Day Artfest

I was so looking forward to the Artfest they have every year in Henderson. I couldn't wait to see the usual vendors...steel yard art, beaded jewlery, and of course, the famous Walla Walla burgers. Finding one of those three things was there. At least I found some new fun jewlery. I met a guy from CA that was selling fun shell jewlery that he created out of weathered shells. He used to be a high school teacher years ago. He went off to the Peace Corp. and came back to quit teaching. He decided to follow his childhood dreams of collecting seashells and making jewlery out of them. He is amazing. He showed me all the shells before they were polished and put into jewlery. I love meeting interesting people that are so creative. They are so much fun to talk to.
Our puppy, Cupcake ( the morkie) made it through the Artfest as well. She's out like a light right now from all the exhaustion.
The entertainment was great too. There was a band there called the Sun Dogs. You can check them out at www.sundogz.com
They sang my favorite songs, especially Sweet Home Alabama. I need to get that ring tone back on my phone. I am so lookinf forward to Mother's Day tomorrow. I have a funny Mother's Day book to share with anyone that would like to see it. Just e-mail me if you would like to view Leila's hysterical Mother's Day book. I couldn't stop laughing at how she views things in life. Have a great Mother's Day everyone! :)

Back to the Peridontist

Ugh! is all I can say. I went to my dentist to finally get my crown put on my implant (after 7 months of waiting) and guess what? "Page luck", as we like to call it, set in again. Of course, the tooth didn't fit and they couldn't get a new impression. So my wonderful periodontist told me he would make an exception and invite me back to look at my tooth. Of course, he saw how swollen my tissues are and decided to laser the tissue area to try to get it to heal. So much fun getting shots of anesthesia. I get this heart attack feeling and feel like I am going to pass out every time. And I am thinking... if this wasn't a front tooth, I would say the heck with this!!!!! So now I wait patiently for my gums to reheal before they even get to take a new impression. Oh my! Moral of the story: if you need an implant done, pray it's a back tooth and just get the darn tooth pulled and forget about it!! I'm headed off to bed with some Tylenol and a good cottage magazine. Magazines like that always cheer me up. :)
