Unfortunately my tooth hasen't healed much. By Thursday I had a temp of 102 and was in imense pain once again. I called my dentist and I wanted to yell into the phone at her "I TOLD YOU SO!!!" Every other time I've had to deal with this tooth problem and I've had a root canal I've gotten an infection. So when she started this one I had suggested that she just put me on and antibiotic to prevent the infection. But NO she knew better. She would put me on one after I was SUFFERING!!!!!! Sorry but it pisses me off when doctors or dentists or other medical type people act like you don't know because you don't have the degree that they do. Like you don't know your own freaking body! I've been through this with four other teeth. I think I know how it's going to go.

Much to my relief my relationship with Jay seems to be slowly healing. I actually went to church and talked to a woman I trust there. She gave me a book (not a christian book) on how to save your failing marriage. Good! sounds like the book for me! After reading the book I realized something. Jay and I spend way too much time alone but together. We're in our home maybe even in the same room but we don't say a word to each other. This may not even be when we are fighting. We just get wrapped up in what we're doing alone. SO this book suggested a few things. First thing I did was hire our local babysitter girl for one regular night a week. She comes, we go. We spend time with just each other. We actually talk. We also play a game together a few nights a week. Usually it's Scrabble and I loose horribly. The other day on our date night we even bought new sheet for the bed he bought me for my birthday. We've even been intimate since the big fight. I see all these things as good signs. Jay's really making a true effort. I think his fear was ending up like his parents who are really unhappy. I'm trying to show him that I'm willing to work on our problems.
Overall I think it's a pretty good start.
