Out Of My Comfort Zone

If you are like me and you see these...
your memory might be like mine and quickly snap you to the musical
"the Little Shop Of Horrors ":
and the Dentist, played by Steve Martin.
I swear this character was casted from my childhood dentist...
I want to go set in a corner and suck my thumb, rocking...make the bad man go away....


SNAP OUT OF IT!!!!


Yes, the song and characters still freaks me out so I could not post it on my blog...


With my love of lemons and my fear of dentist... My smile had very little to desire...


Even on some of my most happiest days...it was hard to let my teeth show But, right before Josh's wedding I had a tooth that was really bothering me. I saw an ad in the local Burley paper, and asked a friend if they had heard of this dentist. They said they hadn't heard anything BAD, so I took a chance and made a phone call.


I am so glad I did!!


He fixed my tooth that was hurting and then asked me to come set down and visit with him... My son's wedding was in a week and I should have a smile to reflect how happy I was...
and Look at that smile he gave me for Josh and Ali's wedding!I have babied these little temporary crowns for 6 months (though they should have only stayed for 4 week ;o)
Even in Argentina I loved my teeth and SMILED A LOT!
Well, Saturday morning I woke to what I would guess was a very BAD night...I had pulled 1/2 of my temps out!! Broke right in the middle!
I called Dr. Neal Johnson's office and he was out of town, but would see me first thing Monday morning.
and I left the office SMILING again. THANKS DR. JOHNSON...
This smile is for you!
I travel at least 3 hours for most of my doctors
Trust me...he is worth the trip.
call his office at 208-878-4532
or
oh yes, tell him I said hi!

Give Up Chocolate!!!

For us who just need a smile for the day:
I was walking down the street when I was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless woman who asked me for a couple of dollars for dinner. I took out my wallet, got out ten dollars and asked, 'If I give you this money, will you buy chocolate with it instead of dinner?' 'No, I had to stop eating chocolate years ago', the homeless woman told me.
'Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food?' I asked.'No, I don't waste time shopping,' the homeless woman said. 'I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive.'
'Will you spend this on a beauty salon instead of food?' I asked.'Are you NUTS!' replied the homeless woman. I haven't had my hair done in 20 years!
''Well, I said, 'I'm not going to give you the money. Instead, I'm going to take you out for dinner with my husband and me tonight.
'The homeless Woman was shocked. 'Won't your husband be furious with you for doing that? I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting.'
I said, 'That's okay. It's important for him to see what a woman looks like after she has given up shopping, hair appointments, and chocolate.'
