No More Teeth

while i was at work today my daughters father brought my daughter to the dentist, for what i thought would be a exam and cleaning, because she hasnt had one of those in a while. i am not even going to say how long because i feel ashamed of that fact. but anyway, she went to the dentist, and instead of what i thought was going to happen happening, the dentist pulled out of her front teeth. now yes i do agree that it was on the verge of coming out, and yes it was extremely noticeable crooked because the one next to it had already came out. so it looked really bad. however, my ex (daughters father) told me that not only did they numb her up and get everything ready to pull it without advising him of how much it would be, but then they pulled it, and told him that they didnt really have to do it because it would have came out on its own in a week or two. now i dont know how likely that is due to the fact that it was loose for at least a month, but why would they pull it and then tell him that. why now just wait to pull it and see if it came out on its own first. and then with her insurance, they still charged him 30 dollars without even making sure that was okay with him first by giving him an estimate like they gave me before they did my work. and with the insurance that she has, i dont think that we are supposed to pay anything, so that is something that i am going to have to look into, if i remember or have a chance. she looks very cute and funny without both of her front teeth and just a gaping hole where they both were, i forgot to take a picture of her and she is in bed now, but i will try to take a picture tomorrow and put it on here. she was happy because the dentist gave her the tooth that they pulled in a bag to put under her pillow for the tooth fairy, so once she falls asleep the tooth fairy is going to have to remember to go in her room and leave her something under her pillow.

i also had a trip to the doctors today, i had to ask to leave work early to go to the doctors today, because i have a cough that is just not getting better, and is getting really bad, i cant breathe and it feels like it is in my lungs. so i went to my primary care doctor this time, and sure enough i have congestion and fluid in my lungs, so she gave me a steriod to take (pill form) and also to take my steroid rescue inhaler every 6 hours, and that should start breaking it up so that i could get it all out of me. so hopefully that will help, the stinky part though is that all those steroids are going to make me so shaky and hyper it is going to be incredible, i hate that, the other bad part is that it isnt going to stop me from coughing right away because it is going to help me to bring all of that stuff up. but hopefully will all of this i will start to feel better soon. i had an issue with my insurance too today, a prescription (the inhaler) that i used to pay 6 or 8 dollars for with my insurance came up to 24 dollars with my insurance because they changed it so that it could protect the ozone layer, which is just great for the ozone, but sucks for people like me who need that medication so that they can breathe and function everyday. they said that there was a way around it, if my doctor called me in something else, and that if not, i would have to get that. so i called the doctor, left a message, she of course didnt call me back today, and for now i am going to use what i have, i think that it should still be good. i hope.

also today at work one of the supervisors in my department asked me if i had applied for the postition that is open with the other part of my company and i said no, that i was still thinking about it, so she said that i should go for it, and that if i dont go for it today or tomorrow that i wouldnt be able to. she also said that if i tried to get it, and got it, and then decided that i didnt want it, that i could just say that i had changed my mind, and that it wouldnt be an issue, i would still be in the same position that i am in. she was saying that i should put in my paperwork today to start the process, but i said that i couldnt because my resume isnt ready. so she said that i should turn everything in tomorrow, so tonight i updated my resume and printed it out and it looks good, and i am going to start the process tomorrow. as far as i know, the process is that you give your transfer request form and resume in to your manager, who approves (or denies it i guess) and then she gives it to the other division of the company. they then set up for an interview with them, and depending on how that goes, even a second interview, then you wait and see what happens from there. so i dont know yet, if i get it, i am not sure if i would take it, cause it has its good points and its had points of taking it. the good points would be that i would still have a job, making the same money that i have now, same benefits (with insurance) that i have now, and also i think that i would be able to have my one year review/raise? (if they thought that i deserved one). the bad points are that they are different, more stricter, and numbers oriented then what i have now, and that if they dont like me or i dont like them and i no longer work there, then i would lose the one month extra of pay that i would get by staying with the company til the end and then leaving. so i dont know what is going to happen yet, i am going to wait and see what happens with and after the interviews and everything if they even want me for that position.
