I survived oral surgery.
Not only did I come out alive, I still had a little goofy pill left in me, so everything was funny.
We made a quick stop at the grocery store in search of ice cream....doctor's orders. (I'm starting to like this lady) then home to relive Ms. Dawne who stayed with the kids. My dentist even told me to sleep late and watch movies. I forced myself out of bed about 10:00 this morning and shorty thereafter my dentist called to check on me. Now I CERTAINLY like this lady....and I probably owe her an apology.
I spent the day with Liberty. Just me and her. Her birthday is tomorrow so we went shopping, ate lunch together (salad for me...thank you very much) drank a coffee together (she had chocolate milk)and we even stopped by McDonald's for ice cream (fruit and yogurt parfait for me...thank you very much and McDonald's ice cream is my absolute favorite dessert in Portugal!)
Lib then got to pick out a few things for her birthday. One of which was a calculator. She is such a nerdy little thing. She always has a notebook and pencil in her hand. And now she has her calculator too. The entire half hour drive home she quizzed me. "Mom, how much is 2,456 x 3,769?" When I couldn't answer she'd tell me how smart she USED to think I was.
While at the mall, I ran into the dentist's assistant. She was shocked to see me shopping the morning after surgery. She asked if I felt okay then told me I needed ice. I felt like I was in trouble, so I said a quick goodbye and fled.
Now I'm home, checking email, blogging and drinking a cup of tea called, "No Belly".
Hope it works.

Glad everything went great with the surgery. Such sweet photos with your daughter, you both look so pretty. Have a great weekend!
You really are comical, Nina! How sweet to spend the day with the birthday girl and make it special; MacDonald's!! Even my husband and I like their icecream sundaes. mmmm. So, I suppose you won't be as smart as you 'use to be' until Lib turns about 21 and realizes some things. LOL.
I shall pray for your family today. The Lord be with you,
Margaret
I think every mom needs a "goofy orange pill!" So glad you survived. I must admit though I laughed at your expense. :)
Oh by the way i found this cool blog. Well, i think it´s cool sometimes when i am determined to stick with it. I thought to send it to you too cause it talks about belly fat. ( Because you mentioned that tea and for no other reason.jeje)

Glad it went well! I'm glad you survived and had a great day today. I'm impressed at how good you look and how busy you were!
Blessings to you!
So glad your surgery went well and that your feeling good! Sounds like such a fun day with your little one! Sending her happy birthday wishes!
Hi Nina,
Thank you for stopping by,I am glad that you are feeling better. I'd rather do anything than visit a dentist office,(had some bad experiences as a chid.)
Anyhow on a happier note I would like to wish Liberty a most blessed and joyous birthday,I will also be thinking about her tomorrow as it is my mothers 81st birthday.
I just love reading about your family and would like to add you all to my prayer list.
Blessings,
Sue
I'm glad everything went well with your surgery. Ice-cream certainly makes lots of things feel better.
Oh, you don't look like you need to lose a pound! That's 100% truth.

I hate going to the dentist. I just was there last week. Had to get a temp crown on and have to go back in a week. I am glad you are feeling better and that you were able to spend some time with your daughter.
Happy birthday Lob.
Both of you look so pretty together.
I love your blouse Nina
Tell Liberty we said "Happy Birthday"!! I hope you're feeling better too. Did you get a haircut? Maybe it just looks different, but I like it! You always look so pretty anyway. I hear you on the salad...I'm trying SO HARD to eat good. It's hard with kids, isn't it?!?! Let me know how the No Belly works...I might have to check that out! :) Talk to you soon!
Love you!

If you know Nina, you know a small thing like surgery on her mouth most likley is not going to get her down. Even if she is my daughter... she is like a TIMEX..TAKES A LICKEN,KEEPS ON TICKEN.. anyway I'm sure glad your doing ok.. and so glad you and Lib got to get away by yourselves.. I wish I could have been there. Tell Lib once again Mimi said happy birthday.
We had a wonderful church service today... I like it when we never make it to Sunday School!
Hope you enjoy your company and the football game.. dont stay up to late as you know tomorrow is school.
I love you Mom
Nina, glad that you made it thru the surgery. WOW what a story! I am a GA teacher. We read and study about y'all all the time, (all my life, I just turned 50 and I have been a Sunbeam, a GA, an Acteen, an Acteen Leader, Acteen Director, Mission Friends Leader, GA Leader ... all my life. LOL! I think there has only been about 4 years that I have not been involved in the children/youth mission program.
Home you heal up soon! Thanks for stopping by my H&F blog.
