I did start of well with my New Years Resolution but once I tell you about how great my Birthday went you will realize I have had other things on my mind!. It all started about a 2 weeks ago I started to get a little pain in what I thought at the time was Ear ache, I know ear ache is really sore but by I would be able to cope with that , then as the days passed the pain started to get worse & I realized it was tooth ache, I have never experienced a pain like it!. By the time it came to my Birthday last Thursday I was walking about with a hot water bottle stuck to my cheek & biting every ones head off, I was that bad every time I walked into a room where my children were the would automatically run out screaming so I did not have a very good Birthday lots of gorgeous prezzies but a mega sore face, mouth, head & Ear!. Friday came & I finally gave in realizing it was not going to go away I thought I would phone up my Dentist to get some help, then I found out my lovely Dentist no longer took NHS patients, after lots of swearing & phone calls I eventually found a willing Dentist to save me but not until Monday afternoon. After LOTS & LOTS of pain killers Monday finally came & I was even smiling even though I knew I was going to probably get a filling (boy was I wrong). I arrived at the Dentist at 12:15 & got taken straight away, got asked all the usual health questions then I got some X-rays taken all was going fine then she told me that my Wisdom Tooth on the bottom that was not even completely through was to come out!. I thought she would give me some painkillers & an appointment for the Hospital where I have been told that is where I would have to go if my wisdom teeth were to come out. But I was so wrong she disappeared for a minute & came back with the senior Dentist, He told me it was causing me to much pain (REALLY) & it had to come out NOW, this was at 12:30 so 7 shots of that yucky tasting numbing stuff a lot of screaming from me & a very worried looking young Dentist (which really never helped me)I was finished with a very numb swelling face, burst lip & shaking like one of those hairless dogs on a snowing day, I finally managed to get out of the surgery after getting talked into another appointment next week to get a filling (So looking forward to that!)got back into the safety of my Mum's car white as sheet at 1:45, Mum goes to me are you felling OK I just burst out crying & told her what had happened she said come on we will take you home for a cup of tea (which I burned my self while trying to drink with a numb face). I honestly thought I would go get it sorted & come out felling great, I was so wrong . I am still in pain not as bad as yesterday but at least I am managing to get some work done, doped up too the eyeballs on strong pain killers but I suppose it is getting better don't think I will be making that appointment next week though

Well as one of my resolutions is to keep my blogs updated I thought I better start by wishing everyone a Happy New Year & I hope you all had a good Christmas. I have blown one of my other resolutions already as it was very hard to keep, it was to post a new item in my shop everyday, I have not posted anything as yet because I have became addicted to felting. I went & bought a needle felting kit a couple of weeks back now I just cant stop!. You would not believe how therapeutic needle felting is (except when you stab your fingers), it is great if you have something or someone on your mind who has upset you, you get your needle and felt & start stabbing the felt with the needle, in no time at all you have a beautiful felted ball. Once I have finally made my light box I will get back to posting new items on Etsy as the weather here is dreadful for taking photos. I have posted a photo here of one of my new felted bracelets, what do you think?.
