Warning. This is probably the most pitiful Sunday Salon you’ll ever get from me and that’s because this weekend, my glorious weekend, took a big unexpected turn.

I spent Saturday morning getting my permanent crown put in. Good, right? Once I got home and the numbness wore off, I felt pain in the tooth directly above it. It’s chipped! Actually, half of it is gone. This is NOT GOOD! It’s never good but it’s really not good because I have no time for this! We are in production week for The Music Man and it’s a week of me leaving early from work and running around trying to get these kids fed and to the stage on time. There were two times where the drill knocked up against that tooth, but I was numb, I didn’t feel much besides the slip. I put a call in to the dentist but I really dread what he will say.

THEN, The Boy gets hit with sickness. On his Winter Formal night. So a night that he has been planning for ages is ruined by illness. He made a show of going, but he came home last night and is now really sick. So sick, that I don’t know what will happen with the show. There are no absences during production week but after four months of rehearsing for this part, it would be a real shame if he can’t perform by this Friday. We’ve got the entire family coming to see him. He told all his friends. Please, please think good thoughts for him. I am debating taking him to urgent care just to be seen but right now, there is nothing remarkable besides the fever that he is complaining of.

So as you can see, my weekend has been exciting but not in a good way. I am in pain, The Boy is not well and I am just irritated over all of it. I have no photos from Winter Formal since he wasn’t feeling well and well, I just feel sorry for myself. I dread the upcoming week, too. How I am going to fit more dental work in? I don’t know.

If I could concentrate on reading, I’d be reading Caroline Leavitt’s Is This Tomorrow. I have been friends with her on Facebook for a while so I thought I’d read her new one. Boy, she sure has a way with words.

Anyway, so sorry to deliver such a dour, depressing Salon today. It’s gloomy and cloudy here and with all that is going on, this is as perky as I get 😉 See? That’s perky, right?

Oh, and for those that signed up for #winditup2013, we have over twenty people now! Keep spreading word!
