Dentists update

So I went to the dentists last Friday. I got there half hour early thinking I’d miss my appointment. Then I was wishing I never got there that early because I’m not kidding my nerves were through the roof! I was panicking, feeling sick and just wanting to get it out of the way but I had to wait. When it came my turn to see my new dentist he was really nice. Fair enough, I was still so nervous but he seemed nice enough and I trusted him. He’s also Spanish so that is awesome. :D

Thinking I’d have treatment that day I was ready for most things but I’m not at the dentists now for another 3 1/2 weeks. That’s when all my treatment starts over a four week period. I’m scared but the outcome will be worth it and I’m guessing my confidence will boost with going to the dentists. In some weird way I’m kind of looking forward to it. I find it strange still I’m facing my biggest fear after a child hood scare with the dentists. It is my new years resolution to have a great smile and healthy teeth and I’m sure making some good progress already!

Dentists

I’m at the dentists next Friday and I’m absolutely dreading it. I’ll be all out and honest and admit I haven’t been to the dentist in years. Why? Because I had a bad experience and it indefinitely put me off going. Much like peoples fear for spiders. Yeah, that kind of scared. Next week will be a big deal for me and nerves will be flying high but I’m going to face my fear and get my teeth sorted because I don’t even like my own smile. Purely because of my teeth really. Getting them fixed will be a big confidence boost.

Having an abscess on Christmas Eve made me think twice about going too as my face looked like I’d gone ten rounds with Mike Tyson! Going to an emergency dentist on Christmas Day wasn’t my idea of a good Christmas but sure it’ll be one to remember and won’t forget! I couldn’t even drink as they had to give me anti-biotics to get rid of the infection in the tooth. Luckily I got to have a drink on New Years Eve and had a damn good New Years with family. :D

I’m just dreading if they will want to do a root canal. Personally I’d rather have it out and be done with it. If it means having one false tooth so be it. I’ve heard too many bad things about root canals and it scares me even more! Talk about panic, my heart is coming out of my chest just thinking about it!!

Fingers crossed all goes well.

Dreamhost

So I’ve moved to a new web host (DreamHost). I decided to move because I was sick of the problems with my old host. No support when I needed it and there was some sort of problem with WordPress on there servers. I kept getting denied viewing of my own website because of some crappy infection in WordPress that a got rid of numerous times and it still came back. Even after a clean install, TWICE! Oh yeah and I’m sticking with my .com this time which is my old domain. Much easier to remember for the majority and to tell people my URL.

I’m trying to find a decent looking theme that suits my style right now. Not looking for anything too fancy just something simple with a bit of colour. I really like this theme: http://www.elmastudio.de/wordpress-themes/piha/ but I’m undecided as of yet. Once I start blogging more then I’ll think about the commitment of putting money down on a theme.

Hopefully there is no more problems with WordPress or the hosting now so I can blog without any silly problems.

Anyway, have a great weekend everyone!
