If you are talking about the numbing shots for your mouth – they really only hurt for a second.  I will be having actual surgery where they put me to sleep and have to cut my gums with a scalpel and remove teeth that never came through my gums:(  Since I will be asleep though, I won’t feel it.

You can also get some lavender or geranium plants.  Cats hate the smell of those plants and will stay away from the area.  Lavender smells great to humans and red geraniums are very pretty so they will just be a bonus to your lawn/yard.

I know, I can’t believe how awesome this lady is!  When we thought I was going to have to have a root canal last week (done by another dentist in her office) she had her schedule worked out so she could sit with me and hold my hand so I wasn’t going to be scared.  Thankfully also, she had an odd feeling about my x-ray and got a second opinion – which caught this wisdom tooth problem and prevented an un-needed root canal.

My case worker from the mental health agency is also being wonderful about my surgery…she offered to come that morning and just sit in the waiting room if it would help me.  I told her I think with my dentist coming I think I will be okay.

I think 20 cents is a fine goal, remember this place is still pretty new.  Interaction is still getting going and blog posts seem to be really just in the first stages of people really getting rolling.  Some days I’m able to write 2 or 3, other days I write none.

I think a month to month and a half for first cash out would be normal for a casual user who isn’t pushing like crazy to make money.

I’m taking it slow, I don’t want to get burnt out.

Right now, since the sight is new, I don’t really have a set goal.  I’m still kind of feeling things out and seeing how things progress.  20 cents is a nice idea though.  I tend to just pop in from time to time right now though.  I am still sort of seeing how everything ends up working out and watch as things get more active, etc.

Yard

This was my view of the yard today as I lounged outside.  It was a beautiful day here in Missouri, USA.  Nice breeze, perfect temperature and sunny.  That vine you see with the yellow flowers is honeysuckle which smells awesome.  It grows all over the fence that surrounds our yard.

@grecy095 I know I won’t be able to make $97 per month with my writing, I will just use what I make to help towards that $97 per month.  It will be okay, I have it worked out so I will be able to afford it if I have to.  I’m going to be paid well for babysitting.

Post edited because I am a dork and need to read more carefully.   Thanks for the information!

I will share another one from my dad…this is a bad one!  Again a work story.

A friend of his at work kept pestering him to go to church on Sunday morning.  He gave the guy an address and told him to show up on Sunday and blow the car horn real loud, so my dad would know he was there to pick him up.  Sunday came and the man drove to the address, never having been in that part of the city before.  It turns out my dad gave him a fake address…one in a part of the city that was run by gangs.  Had he actually blew the horn, he would’ve woken up all the drug dealers who’d just gone to sleep after a busy Saturday night!  He didn’t blow the horn and got out of there quickly!

@rapidblue  I wonder if the category the blog posts are in make a difference about how many are published at a time?  Mine are always in the Health category.  I’m going to try to get one more blog ready for publishing to see if they will approve three of mine at once this time.

May 20, 2016 at 8:43 pm

I haven’t figured out what time.

I seem to get 2 blogs published at a time though and the rest held back for the next round of releases though.

My biggest problem right now is there is a type of therapy I need, called DBT therapy, which I’m having trouble gaining access to.  If I were to take the free classes offered to me, I would need to stop seeing my current therapist – that isn’t an option.  The other option to get classes will cost me $97 a month.  Or I can not take classes but learn on my own for free.  Its going to have to be one of the last two options.

Learning on my own will be hard, its a very advanced and kind of intangible therapy that was created by one woman.  Everyone seems to swear it works though.  And most people are pushing me that I need this to help me be more stable.  The $97 a month option, well that is a lot of money.  It is even more since I have no real income right now!  Its something I’m going to have to explore though…I will have a little bit of money coming in for the next month and a half from babysitting at least.  Beyond that, I could hope my writing endeavors here and elsewhere do well.

So, I have one option and two other to consider.

I second the heating pad suggestion.  I also had to be put on prescription birthcontrol pills I had such heavy periods and such pain.  I would faint, vomit, and be generally sick for two weeks out of every month.

Earn at least 20 cents on here.

Earn at least 30 cents on my other writing site.

Enjoy the party today at my workplace 🙂
