Rotten teeth and f.....day

Sister

Argued with sis. We are living together since she broke up with her boyfriend. I knew it would not be easy since we have not always gotten a long. In fact we could not be anymore different from each other. We share the same DNA and pretty much the similarities end there. The thing is that she is so sad and depressed over this break up and I have tried my best to make her feel welcomed but at times it just doesn't seem enough. I know it's hard but I am the one who has bent over backwards for her and at times I do not think she sees how she comes across. That is why I stay in my room. Well, hopefully school will end soon and she will find a job and get her own apt. I am sure these thing will make her happier. In turn I believe our relationship will get better for the both of us.

The Dentist

I went to the dentist for my follow up visit. It was just my luck that right before going on vacation my tooth chipped. It was the tooth that had the root canal. I was supposed to have it crowned and I never got around to it. At that time I had no dental insurance. I had two root canals and a couple of fillings for 3,000 plus dollars. I was devastated not only because of the cost but also for the condition of my teeth. Since I can remember I hated going to the dentist. They always found cavities. It was never great teeth or you just need a cleaning.

Fast forward to todays visit still no dental insurance. Dentist now tells me that it will cost me 1,500 dollars for the crown and post. Now I still have another tooth to crown so that will be an extra 1,500. That is not the worst the doctor keeps telling me he is worried about tooth decay in another tooth. I want to scream does that mean another root canal and crown. I feel like an ass for having to need so much work on my teeth. I blame it all on Soda. I love Pepsi. I am addicted to it I have to have at least one can a day. I have tried to stop but I can't. No matter how much I brush my teeth the sugar gets in. I wish I had never gotten in to that bad habit. I wish they would put a disclaimer on the can and warn parents that it causes bad teeth, obesity , and contributes to diabetes. Oh well no use in crying over spoiled milk now.

P.s did not make it over the bridge but it turned out to be a beautiful day. We did go bike riding with a group of friends we were right under the williamsburg bridge. So to be continued.
