Is anyone there? Is there an echo?

Yes, there has been an echo.

Because of life, I’ve not been able to blog since last Wednesday!

Eek.

I shan’t bore you with the details.

Let’s just say I’ve had emergency dental surgery for a cracked tooth with abscess that spread to the next tooth.

Dental pain is miserable.

I am sure that everyone has had it.

I’m halfway through, okay, maybe a third of the way through treatment.

That’s gonna be a fun bill. Good thing I have a health reimbursement account through my insurance company. And a healthy balance there as they wouldn’t let me use it for LASIK.

However, I proved to be a badass because I went from the dental chair to the pharmacy to the online meeting I had for the IRB. I made my presentation with a lisp and a very swollen face.

We’ll see how the revisions go.

But now I am on stronger antibiotics and prescription ibuprofen (no, I don’t know why the one pill is different than the four pills but it is) and a prednisone taper. And a probiotic because that is a lot of medications that I am not used to taking.

But enough about me and my travails.

No Post-it Sunday today because, well, life.

I am going to focus on revising my IRB application.

Because the only way out is through.
