The Hidden Silent Pain

My teeth are heading in the right direction but they are not there yet. I try to be more conscious of what I eat. Trying to floss more. I will be glad when there are no more appointments. I am so happy we live in a time that technology has come along way. Improvements in medicine and dentistry have come along way. Thank you for all your thoughts and well wishes.

Joan King, I am so glad to see your visit. I went to the dentist and I made a new appointment. Hopefully, things will work out. When my teeth hurt it is like my whole world is starting to crumble. Silly how one thing can throw your whole day off. Even though the rest of my body is working perfectly fine. I hope you never have another toothache either. Modern technology has come along way. You think fillings and toothaches would be a problem of the past. Thank you so much for reading and sharing. I have been playing catch up with work and the holidays. So it took me a long time to get back to you. Have a beautiful day.

Bill Holland The winter is something else. I love it because there are no bugs. Then again when the winter winds down and the snow melts I tend to get a lot of water in our yard that leads to our cellar. We have a sump pump but it is not enough. Life is filled with surprises. I enjoy so many people here on HubPages too. Time is always a tug a war with me but I try my best. Thank you so much. Happy days ahead.

Bill Holland Now I saved the best for last. My Thanksgiving was really nice. Simple and quiet spent with family. I hope yours was extremely special too. Writing is the biggest challenge of my life. Some days you can write up a storm and just don't want to stop other times you have to dig and plug away for every word. At least that is my view. You have been writing for so long and have consistently been all over the HubPages. I make a comment on someone's hubs and little do I know you have been there already. I meet someone new and I go to read their hub for the first time and you have been there too. You sure get around. Then I pop on your hubs and admire all your work. You are one of the most consistent and helpful writers I know. I go to work and have a thousand thoughts pulling me in every direction. I come home and have a thousand more. That is not counting all the daydreams and night dreams that I manage to add to the mix. Then, of course, I have my ideas that come out of the blue. You keep writing and your book list seems to be endless. I read one of your comments and it is spot on. I look back at me and I am just trying to keep my head above water. You have shared so many good and hard times with all your readers that it is impossible not to find you down to earth and just a wonderful person inside and out. I will make my trackback to your hubs. Right now I am using the snow as an excuse. I can't see the path. I have gone the wrong way. It is a whiteout and I can't see anything. The truth is I am a slow walker and I love to observe along the way. Everything from a little bird in a tree to the wind blowing makes me wonder. I can easily take a side path and go way off track. In the end, I will get where I am supposed to be. Just a little later than I expected but with expectations that go through the roof. My excitement can't be contained. I am like that stick of dynomite ready to blow. The problem is when I explode tiny bits of joy and friendship are everywhere for miles. Some people call it a mess. I call it my little world of happiness. That isn't like anything you have ever seen. A little bit crazy but lovely in so many ways. That is my day in a nutshell. Hey, Mr. squirrel put that nut down that is my nut. Where are you going with that? So another day that goes off into the woods. Thank you for your holiday wishes and my toothache will be better soon. I hope all is well with you and your family is better than ever. I have heard good things come to people that wait. I want to add my own version to that. Great things happen to people who do good. That is what we all can expect and enjoy every day by doing what we know best. Helping others and never stop caring because we don't want to. Unlike so many other people in the world. We do things in our life that have no monetary value but are so rich in content only a writer can understand. Have an amazing morning. How much snow did you get? In Maine, we got about ten inches over two days. It was our first snow. I love the crystal white.

Lorna Lamon I went all these years with no toothaches. Then one day it happened. i got to feel what other people feel and I got to walk in their own shoes. Well, I am happy to say you can keep those shoes I am buying another pair. That give me happy feet. From there the feeling is going to work up from my toes to my knees. Working it's way to my chest and up under my chin. Then up to the tip of my nose and making sure everything is better and the feeling is not going to leave anytime soon. Thank you so much for hanging around and seeing what the outcome will be. Everything will look and feel better tomorrow. But, what about today? I will just have to pray. I went out to shovel earlier today. It's one way to keep my mind off of it. Thank you so much for reading and commenting.

John Hansen I know a few days from now I can look back at this time and laugh. For now, it is no laughing matter. A matter of fact maybe that is exactly what I have to do. Laugh it off. It is worth a try. When that doesn't work back to the building block I go. I am glad I was born this day and age where we have great dental methods. They have come such a long way. Back in the early 1900's they probably just took a shot of whiskey and called it a day. Thank you so much for reading and sharing. May tonight be wonderful and bright.

Kari Poulsen I don't know if you heard the news. I have one toothache for sale. No takers. I can't even give it away. I have heard many times on the Internet you can find anything and everything. So I thought I would give it a college try. (lol) I still have it and sometimes the bad feeling is through the roof and other times nothing at all. Nothing consistent. One thing I found out the hard way is not to drink cold water. I was seeing stars and they weren't the bright and beautiful ones you see up in a clear peaceful night. Well, it's been some experience. Thank you so much for your lovely thoughts. I feel better already. Have a sensational night.
