Think Thank Thunk and Dentists in Tidewater

Low black clouds; I feel them. Thinking, thanking, and thunking belays. BUT BUT BUT there are so many good things, lots of them. They'll come to me soon. I know it.

Random:

-Do you think dentists really try to cheat you? Do you think they would make up if a child had suddenly lots of cavaties out of nowhere? A child who does not drink any kind of soda, lots of water and second to that, milk? Very little juice in the grand scheme of things? We have not had dental insurance in.a.long.time. We always pay outright every time we take the Oldest. I have not been in years and neither has my honey. So on his last visit (thank you Auntie M) they discovered lots of cavaties and I think they said he was not brushing right or brushing too hard. They wanted us to make two appointments for all the fillings. I called ahead not knowing what the cost would be and wanted to see if they would let us pay 1/2 then 1/2 the next month. No. No they would not. I'm going to another dentist just for that answer alone. Secondly the cost per visits will be 339.00 and 363.00. They have NEVER had to bill us. We always pay on the spot and how nice for them? Immediate pay and no waiting for insurance or billing us/them etc, they just get it. They won't work with us now? I'm peeved over all this and as of tomorrow I will be calling around and finding out just who WILL work with us and that is one less client our dentist will have. He probably does not care but still....I'll feel tons better.

-Am loving facebook, turning out to be lots of fun.

-Do you know who Jim Cramer is? I enjoy him.

-Have been low key lately. I think we could use lots of rain. I like the mood rain brings.

-Do you know the difference between a hockey mom and a bull dog? Yah, you know. Dumb.

See if the cavities are on baby teeth or adult teeth. At his age he could have just a few years left with those teeth you might not want to fill them. Get the ACT rinse stuff and Trident gum. ACT every night before bed, Trident gum when your out and about chew chew chew.
Make sure he's not taking a vitamin right before bed they stick to your teeth and cause damage. I think that dentist and vets in today's economy have been so badly burned by people not paying their bills they are getting pretty strict. Good Luck with all of that.
