raindrops on roses


I have just returned from the dentist - and have my first filling. I mean you could say I was a little anxious after all of the horror stories I had been told - but you know there comes a time when you just need to have a filling. The dentist was lovely...and Tanya was her name-o. Whenever I am in a situation that I need to take my mind off I things I have this funny ritual - it all started when I was getting my first tattoo years and years ago - for some reason I started singing a song that takes me to a happy place...I don't know why but every time I need to relax I start singing... in my mind...of course


Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens...you know the rest of it goes. DO you have something that you do get all zen like and take your mind off pain??

I am pleased you survived the drill...and the NEEDLE !

When I really need to relax and calm down and drink - ALCOHOL - that's my little trick...it's a secret, ok ?

yeah but what about when that just isn't appropriate? Or is it always appropriate? I did want to get a photo in the chair today but thought they might think it a little weird...

What's wrong with a little tipple in the dentist chair ?

You could have asked the dental nruse to take a nice shot mid-drill ....now that is a blog-worthy moment !

curious to know what tattoo you had years ago and of what

Sounds like you breezed through. What, no photo of the filling !!
Have you more than 2 tattoos - one fairly recent on the back of your neck and the other on your hip ?
Instant relaxation whenever the kids are asleep, ah the joys of parenthood.
