Catching up
So much has been happening over the last month. But here's the rundown, putting my "Mighty Mom" skillz to the test:
Mio and the Dental Nightmare
Both Mio & AJ had dental check-ups last month. AJ's Report Card was an A, except it turns out that he has an extra baby tooth on the bottom set!
Mio on the otherhand... 2 new cavities were detected and an abscess (puss pocket) formed above his injured tooth. Actually it formed on the other "healthy" front tooth. After additional x-rays, the dentist ordered that his 2 front teeth be removed and thus the nightmare begins...
We were given the choice of 2 oral surgeons, I chose the one across the mall. Scheduled and went to the consultation for a 2 o'clock appointment. We didn't get called into a room until 3! It took another 30 min before the doctor actually walked into our room. damoomoo who used his lunch hour to join us, but had to leave. I sat there pissed out of my mind, and not once did the assistant, receptionist or anyone say "thank you for waiting..." or "we apologize for the delay...". That made me even more mad. But the date was set... Friday October 5th: no food or drink after midnite until the surgery. I had the day off and all was set.
HOWEVER, Mio ended up eating a handful of Goldfish crackers on the way to the appointment. And guess what.. they wouldn't operate and forced to re-schedule! in doing a re-schedule the surgeon was about to go on vacation and everything else conflicted with my work, so the next appointment was not until the 26th. I was done with that office, so I asked for another referral and got his x-rays back. I asked damoomoo to schedule the next appointment cuz I was just livid at that point. We came home and Mio still had a full set of teeth. I didn't bother going into work that day, but instead caught up on lost sleep (mainly from anxiety over the surgery), and cleaned up for the Boxing and BBQ we were hosting the next day.
Well, we are going back to the original surgeon cuz it turns out we would have to sit through another consultation if we switched now, in addition to another payment. Next date is set for October 26th!

Damoomoo and I have decided to break from dancing to concentrate on family and the house. We realized that with all that we do during the week, we never really get to enjoy or maintain our house, just look at our backyard and laundry! So with weekends, particularly Sundays we will be able to go to Church and enjoy some family time. No work, just play. No more scheduling of side gigs, and rehearsals!
So, after 10 years (15 for 'moomoo) I will be hanging up my sapatilyas--- until we get invited to an alumni show! We would have liked to join in on one more tour... but that just means budgeting and planning our own personal vacations in the future!
If you are free on Saturday, October 20th come watch Likha's 15th Anniversary Show at Cowell Theatre inside Fort Mason.
WORK
agggh, that is a whole other post... I am however desperately looking for other options closer to home until I can really boost my MK business and work entirely from home!
