I recently had an awesome experience at the dentist. I had to get two crowns and some fillings done and after crying in front of the dentist (yeah, embarrassing), he decided conscious sedation would be best for me. I went in on July 1st. They gave me a pill under my tongue and had me watch tv for an hour so the medication could take effect. They check my vitals when I first got there and my blood pressure was up and my heart was racing...lol. Anyways, the doctor and everyone there was SO nice! When it was finally time, I wasn't feeling much of the medication, but didn't feel nervous because I was gonna be getting nitrous oxide too (or maybe the med was working, I don't know). Everything took like 3 1/2 hours, but it honestly felt like 15 minutes. I thought I was awake for the whole thing, but I guess not. Anyways, by far the BEST experience I have ever had at the dentist. I can't even say how great it was. I chose this dentist because he specializes in people that hate the dentist and I'm so happy I found him. In other news, the whole pool thing is coming along. They came by yesterday and spray painted where the pool is gonna go and put the Shasta sign in the front yard! I guess they should be breaking ground soon! The dogs already pooped in the pool (well the spray painted area atleast :)) We are done with our weekend road trips! In the past 2 months, we have been out of town almost every weekend. We went to California twice, Pinetop-Lakeside twice, Kansas, and Albuquerque. I have to work this Saturday, but it will be nice to have a weekend where we don't have any travelling to do.
