a little less wisdom.

got my wisdom teef out. this is just out of surgery..still don't understand what's going on. i bled through those gauze pads SO fast on our hour drive home from the bountiful office. and don't worry, when we finally got 15 minutes away we ran into traffic. by then i had already whipped out the napkins from the glove compartment..gross.
day two: this morning i felt great, stopped taking the pain meds and went shopping. by 7 o'clock that night i realized how stupid that was! a little chubby and a lot in pain.
day three: yeah..not rocking. bruising is starting and i am officially "a cute little rabbit" according to my mother. kimball says Dr. Chandler came out and announced that he got all four impacted, unsurfaced teeth out in 15 minutes. while impressive, kimball is convinced that if the doctor wasn't preoccupied with beating his PR maybe i wouldn't be so black and blue, so to speak. (oh, and enjoy the blonde, mascara-less eyelashes).
day seven: one week later and the swelling is pretty much gone but the bruising is not my best friend. with engagements in a week i'm a little bit freaked out that i'm gonna have a green and yellow face! we went and got "bruise relief". lets pray that wasn't a rip off and will actually do it's job!

although this experience hasn't been the most pleasant and i wasn't the most pleasant person during the last week (medication makes me not so fun, poor kimball) it was such a blessing to have good health care and a wonderful support system to lie to me about how "cute" i looked even though we all know i looked ridiculous. because i am blessed :)

  1. You poor girl! Were there any witnesses to his brutality while you were under anesthesia? You should make him pay for your photos if you have to postpone them. Has anyone asked you if your boyfriend is beating you yet?

  2. I have to get mine out soon! Ugh! I'll say a prayer those bruises disappear before your engagements! P.S. Kimball should make a post about all the things you said while on meds... Wisdom teeth sayings always make for the best stories haha :)

    Yeah, getting wisdom teeth out is definitely no fun. Hope your bruise goes away for your pics!
