Goodbye Tooth

Ok I did not expect that.
Yesterday morning started off typically for a Thursday.  I have breaky with a mate.  This time it was just up the road.  Merril who was doing a walk joined us at the end.
During the time I did not really need to consider my tooth for some reason.  Though the day before I really felt something was amiss with it.
When I came home I was watching some telly and having a rest (Thursday is the day I have off) and at the end of that I really knew I needed to do something about my tooth as soon as possible.  I felt like it was disintegrating and it was the same tooth where one dentist told me I really needed major work on it.
Merril booked an appointment with the dentist for me.  I thought she was booking where I normally go.  It turns out she was booking where she normally goes. I am sorta pleased it worked out that way, as this dentist is more likely to mention all options rather than only the expensive ones.
I got in at 2.30.  Before that I was wanting to get a couple of trees for our yard (not huge ones and ones I could keep in a pot.)  (I am really over heaps of weight so we ended up buying large pots but light weight.  I think I will use polystyrene and potting mix and the tree will stay in one place)
So we went to a nursery.  The thought was to go to the nursery (in Deception Bay) and then get a coffee before going to my dentist appointment.  The guy we bought plants from really knew his stuff and was incredibly helpful.
He mentioned the oldest one in the world of omme tree we got is near Warrick. He said it is estimated to be about 450 years old.  I thought I should be gone by the time this one reaches that age.
I find it amazing that I just need to ask to get a discount.  I said is that your best price if we get a couple.  He took 10% off everything we got.
We then had a coffee and I went to the dentist.  A couple of x-rays were taken and he showed me to tooth had had its day.   I had it out completely.  Needles are way better than they used to be though extraction still seems primitive.  The dentist needs to brace himself and pull.  I am glad I was anesthetised.
He told me I would need to meditate for three days for recovery.  I said that won’t happen as I need to set up tables and chairs this weekend.  He then said he was joking though I need to be quieter than I intended.  
I am on pain killers and today is supposed to be the worst day.  So far so good but the gardening I think will need to wait.
