No Laughing Allowed

Today was a really fun day, although I paid for it at night. I spent part of the day out back with the kids and grandpa playing baseball. I didn't do any running or anything, mostly just watched, but it was so much fun and I laughed and smiled a lot. YOUCH!! Who knew such happiness could cause so much pain!



Here is something else that made me laugh, look at these two:



I even got Luci to take a picture with me. You can see that a lot of the swelling is gone at just two weeks past. My mouth still hurts very much, the taste is nasty. I think it's just because the roof of my mouth is still numb as well as the back of my teeth on the top. Very weird. I talked way too much and ended up awake at 2 a.m. with a lot of pain. That seems to be the trend when I talk too much.



Overall, I'm doing great I guess. Enjoying Mashed Potatoes, Jello, Pudding, Scrambled Eggs and I even broke up a piece of pizza to swallow, although it's just not the same.

What a sweet picture of mom and daughter! We're not sure, though, if grandpa M. is talking to his little sweetheart or taking a 30- second snooze? You are looking sooooo much better. Hopefully the pain and discomfort is improving daily...just limit those HAPPY smiles. When you can munch on a piece of chicken, you'll know that you've come a "long way baby"!
