Evening All Artists,

Today I went to a cosmetic dentist because I chipped my front tooth. During my first visit she said she would put a temporary cap on the tooth until the real one was ready, and clean my teeth during the second visit, today.

How did I end up with two caps and two veneers?

She had to have explained everything to me, I must have agreed, because she did the work. My mouth is very sore which will go away, I'm sure. I will have four brand new front teeth in two weeks!

When the money woman told me the cost, I almost fainted. Good thing there was a counter to hold on to.

Then I thought, why not? I am a caregiver who woouldn't think of giving herself a gift - a large gift. I went for it. It feels good, if a bit indulgent.

Signed up for a Color class with the judge who liked my NYC picture. His name is John Massimino if anyone wants to google him. The class sounds great, plus he critiques other work you bring from home.

Since my watercoloring and acryllic texture with stuff stuck in it, I'm not happy with only seaweed.

Yesterday, I matted a piece of paper and arranged seaweed into a picture I named "Out of Here." Something was missing. I guess I'll figure it out. I know I'll figure it out!

CU Soon,

Sore mouth Lisabeth

It's been a few blogs now and you're still in "happy" mode and feeling good about things. You're on a good roll. Just smile with those new chicklets and enjoy : ) Is that a new picture minus a hat?  From: Susanne 02/11/2008 21:03:17 I had a similar experience when I saw an estimate of what my dental work was going to cost.  i think they should give you a stiff whisky and a chair a few minutes before they give it to you. From: stacy101 02/11/2008 20:34:32 yikes, i have veneers too. Still not successful as a solo artist though.
