the other day johnny (aka mr. wonderful)
told me he bought a present and then
held aloft a double-decker cupcake carrier.
{over ichat, of course, hence the visuals from nashville}
and i was so happy and excited that i
literally burst into tears.
i think it was more the realization that he really listens to me
and thinks of sweet and thoughtful things to make me happy for no reason at all
more than the actual cupcake carrier that set off the water works.
especially when i'm so tender-hearted as of late.
and because i miss him so stinkin' much.
tonight i'm picking up my best friend/awesomesauce boyfriend
at the airport and i'll probably cry then too.
another thing that makes me cry?
your lovely well wishes, kind words and prayers
in response to my little request last week.
i can't tell you how much it has meant to me
to receive encouragement and prayers from you lovely dears.
what a neat thing that we can come
around one another in times of need, huh?
a little update: looks like i may need a root canal after all.
the financial implications of this scare the you-know-what
out of me, but i need to believe that it will all
work out okay of for God's purpose.right?
continued prayers appreciated, as always.
you all are a fab group and you, too,
make this callous new england girl cry.

I've had to have a root canal before, and financially they suck, but the procedure itself is not too bad. I had an abscess in my tooth and then last year (six years after my root canal) the tooth got reinfected and I had to have a root canal re-procedure with a specialist. It was NOT fun, but in the end it saved my tooth, so that was nice :). Prayers for you!!!
And I love that he got you a cupcake carrier. He sounds like a real keeper :).
I feel a lot of your pain.. in both senses. I had to have a root canal done back in 2007.. in 2009 I had to have it redone.. Two months ago, the little horror just split in two while eating. Talk about dramatic. I went to have it fixed, knowing how expensive it was going to be with ANOTHER root canal. They then proceed to tell me they couldn't fix it and that i can either pull it, or get an implant.. which would run oh.. $3,200.00. (procedure, implant & crown) I cried in that dentist chair, in front of everyone and their dog. I sucked it up and got a credit line for it. I'm in the middle of my 2 month waiting period before i can get the crown with the screw in my head and a HUGE VERY VISIBLE gap in my face. It's taken a while to smile and be ok with people being able to see the missing tooth. I know you're stressed girl! God won't give you anything you can't handle! I know!!
