I awoke looking forward to a day of rest, but a day of rest I did not get. I finally got around to eating breakfast this morning about 9AM - rice chex with milk, sounds harmless, right? But my second bite was fatal for my tooth. I lost an onlay (like a partial crown) on one of my back teeth. I actually pulled it off with a caramel early September and they put some temporary glue on it until I could have it fixed 'for real'. Needless to say, I've been a little pre-occupied. I REALLY did not want to go to the dentist today! But to the dentist I went. They used a stronger glue because of my sob story and I scheduled to come back later this month to have it permanently repaired. They began giving me my options as to the type of crowns I can order to replace the onlay and the one they recommend is a lava porcelain. Their big selling point was that it comes with a lifetime guarantee. I just about laughed out loud. Will I get my money's worth? Is that really a smart investment under the circumstances? Is it like going to a buffet after having your braces tightened? You KNOW you're not going to have anything you can't drink through a straw! Where is the value in that?
Hopefully you find it humorous with me. Some of you - like my mother - will probably find it morbid.
I still think it's kind of funny =)

I think it is WAY TOO early to be ordering food through a straw...if you catch my drift?! You worship the God who "forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases", so "do not be troubled or afraid"! You should fix your tooth trusting that the Lord will answer your prayers to watch your children grow up...cause then you are believing Him to move mountains for you!
I once heard a pastor say that as long as you are here, that is where God wants you. Can I get an "AMEN"!
My mother sent me this in an e-mail and I thought I would share =)
"Very funny! Only you, my dear, would be concerned with getting your money's worth. Get your tooth fixed!"
LOL! Well, now I know she reads my blog! =)I get my inability to spend money from my father. Eric balances me out=) And yes, I am getting my tooth fixed.
Im glad to see the Benson humor has rubbed off on you :) Even more glad to see it still around.
