I had my dentist appointment today, two teeth repaired and the one that I though it was going to be removed today is still here. Gum is still very injured and we’re going to wait one more week and decide what to do: restore or remove.

This last few days the Top/Most watched movie in my house was “Enchanted“. This is the most beautiful movie I’ve seen lately and my daughter (4) and my son (9) just love it, meaning this is a movie for all ages.

The story starts with a princess that talks to animals and lives in the woods and looks forward to the day she’ll meet her Prince. The Prince hunts trolls and looks for the day he’ll meet his Princess. That day arrives but a queen is against and will fight to end their love, that’s when the real world movie starts.

Plot Outline:
A classic Disney fairytale collides with modern-day New York City in a story about a fairytale princess who is sent to our world by an evil queen. Soon after her arrival, Princess Giselle begins to change her views on life and love after meeting a handsome lawyer. Can a storybook view of romance survive in the real world?

This movie has all the fairy tale ingredients for an entertaining and amazing movie:

• Princess
• Prince
• Princess that talks to with animals
• Princess that sings
• Princess Dresses
• Evil queen
• Evil queen with poisoned apples
• Music
• Love
• and much more

This is a family movie, if you haven’t seen it yet, you should. If you want to buy it, it is available at Amazon.

On Sunday my tooth situation got worse and I was able to get an emergency appointment with at the dentist clinic. The broken piece of my tooth was removed and I was told that the tooth broke already in the root, meaning, probably I’ll have to remove the tooth. I’ve got an appointment for tomorrow and the dentist is going to decide what to do.

Once bad luck doesn’t walk alone, I have two more teeth that were treated some years ago, that need to be treated again. Why did I fool myself by thinking that May was not a month with extra bills?

Today I’m going to start taking my anxiety pills because dentists are not my favorites doctors and I hate when I have to go there. I hope to treat the two teeth and remove the other one tomorrow (all in one). If one teeth has to be devitalized I have to go there two more times.

Have I already told you I hate going to the dentist? Yeap…it’s true.

Lori is giving away 3 copies of Walt Disney: Classic Caballeros Collection DVD. This DVD has four stories and it will for sure entertain children and grown-ups. To participate you just have to leave a comment on Lori’s post until April 30, 2008 around 10:00pm CST. I’m heading there now to leave my comment.

A tooth that I recently fixed broke Friday while I was eating ice cream. I can’t eat using my right side teeth because I’ve got a lot of pain and I can  make the situation worse by breaking the rest of the tooth. I contacted the dental clinic but they only had an appointment for today at 12.30. DH was working so I couldn’t imagine myself at the dentist with my two kids… I hope I can get an appointment tomorrow so…I’ll be in pain until tomorrow.

Also, Dani’s tooth just lost the “bulk” it had inside (it’s been fixed) and I have to schedule an appointment for him too. He’s starting to feel some pain already.

I hate dentists and the extra bills!!!

Today we had a perfect summer day. In the afternoon we went to the beach, although we thought it would be windy and a little cold, we were completely wrong. The weather was excellent, the sea, although a little wild, rolled out along the beach giving the opportunity to wet out feet.

Our intention was to drink a coffee, play a little in the sand and come home. All plans were not accomplished. The coffee shop was closed and instead of playing in the sand, once the weather was so good, my kids ended up playing in the sea in their underwear. First it was just to wet our feet but the water was so good, that they start wetting the shorts/skirt/shirt and well, in a few minutes they were playing in their underwear. I was wearing jeans, I rolled them up above my knees but I end up with wet jeans.

We ran, we laugh, we played in the water, my kids were so happy. My DH, has usual, not very fond of this type of fun (arhhh!!) stayed up in the hill while we were down there in the beach having fun.

I wish I had taken my camera but well, what matters is the photograph memory we have of these beautiful and happy moments .

Yesterday I thought I was going to have a relax day although I know with all the housework and kids to take care is a little difficult to accomplish that.

Today it was an important holiday here “Carnation Revolution“, and although I already knew my son was having a birthday party in the afternoon, I thought I was going to have a calm day. I was wrong.

The news came when I picked up my son yesterday at soccer class: Your son has a soccer tournament tomorrow and he has to be at 9.30am in the local park field. The tournament will last until 12.00. What?? This meant I was not getting a calm and relaxed get up the next morning.

Today, my husband went to work early in the morning, I got up to prepare a few snacks, woke up the kids and got into the field. Fortunately the tournament took place in a park where besides, tennis/soccer/basketball fields there is a play park so my daughter could be busy. The problem was that I couldn’t rest a minute. Catherine wanted to swing and swing and swing and I had to push her in the swing all the time. Of course watching a soccer game bothers her so she refused to get near the field. Fortunately I was able to watch my son’s goal.

I went home already tired but I had to cook lunch. At 12.30 Catherine was asleep in the couch, I was cooking in the kitchen. Lunch ready, time to eat, Catherine continue to sleep, at 15.45, Dani and I left home to the birthday party, Catherine was still asleep. I left Dani in the birthday party and I met my best friend who was in the park where we had been in the morning and we spend a few time talking there, this was the only relax moment of the day (beside now).

18.30 time to pick up Dani, I took Catherine with me and I didn’t expect what was about to happen. I ate something at the party, Catherine too but Dani and her didn’t want to leave because all the other kids where still there. I’m not going to enter into details but at 21.05 I was able to grab them back home.

Baths and movie watch ended the day. We had started to watch the “Enchanted” movie the day before and we watched the rest. Excellent movie.

Now, the big moment of the day, everyone is asleep and I’m in the computer all by myself. I needed this!!!!

I’m disappointed, after all the anxiety I went through because of the Pap Smear test, the doctor had to go to the ER and my appointment was postponed to May 19th.

It’s already Wednesday (00.28) and I’m a bit nervous about this morning. I’m going to make a routine medical appointment and one of the tests I’ll be doing is the Pap Smear. I haven’t done it since my daughter was born, four years ago, and I’m afraid, not of doing the test but of the result. I know, I’m a chicken but with so many cancer cases lately, I’m worried.

Interesting news, my friend’s wedding will take place on June 9th, 2008 at 12.30.  Did you notice it? June 9th is a Monday, meaning I’ll be working, my husband will be working and my kids will be at school. As June 10th is a public holiday, my friend thinks that most people won’t work on Monday to have a long weekend, well that’s not our case, we’ll be working and the kids will be at school, so no way we can attend the wedding.

As Connie suggests, I’m sure my friend will understand the financial situation and also our working situation that doesn’t allow us to be present at the wedding. Besides, who gets married on Mondays???

The pain hasn’t got away yet. I spend most of the afternoon trying to nap in the couch, the kids were always making noise and waking me up, but I manage to get some rest. The pain is still here on my neck, back and shoulders, if I get worse than this I have to go to the doctor.

To worse my pain, now my internal pain and heart pain I just received a wedding invitation from my school best friend. In the last 10 years we met 2 times but the old school time where enough to keep us connected even if we don’t talk or visit each other. We took different paths, she’s a lawyer now and after a troubled life it seems she finally found the right men.

Since it’s tradition to give money to the bride and groom I must say this is not the right occasion to “give away” a large amount of money. Each time I think I don’t have any extra bills, something comes up.

I’ve been in a lot of pain these last days. Shoulders, neck and thorax have been killing me lately. I know what it is, accumulated anxiety and stress from these last weeks. Yesterday I barely could move my head but still, I spend all day in the office working and screaming each time I had to make a sudden movement. I’m taken some pills and although still having a lot of pain I’m better than yesterday.

Yesterday my father had his new electrical bed delivered and is much comfortable now. I went to the pharmacy and paid for it, a huge amount I must confess.

Today my kids had a birthday party of a neighbor in a “party academy”, I used the waiting time to be in the parent’s area to catch up with some neighbors. Interesting thing, I felt good, relaxed, meaning I really stress at work and I get better on weekends. Damn it…I can’t get stressed, I have to control myself. Yeap…I know there are techniques, I’ve tried them but once my bosses enter into the office…I get stressed and want to go home.
