When I told my children I was the tooth fairy, at first they thought I meant I was the "Tooth Fairy" ... as in, I was the one leaving money under everyone's pillows. - Lol I got such a kick out of that! :)
Just goes to show you how strongly they believe in what their parents say and scarey that we have such influence (when we are so flawed).

LOL 'Sky fairy.' I like that. Yes, the sky fairy... sm
Gets an awful lot of things wrong, doesn't he? ;o)
WOW - something tells me I wasn't meant to reveal
my age! Let's try this again - FIFTY!!
Fairy Tale sm
Family has no money to fix car, lawnmower, house had to be refinanced. Good pop doesn't believe in divorce so lets wife who runs around til 3-4 in the a.m. with another guy go to Egypt alone to meet foreign guy but hubby keeps check on computer and talks to other guy involved. Hubby good guy, waits for mommy to come home. Kids have no idea - everything is wonderful in the Cleaver household, mom is on vacation. Kids don't suspect a thing, don't hear any evil, see any evil, just waiting for all to return to normal. All is well with these little kids. Yeah right! Poor babies. Jeesh! Where's this guy's backbone?
I know it won't be a fairy tale...but (sm)
we have fought like cats and dogs for about 15 years. For each of us, the thought of having the other not living with them is a relief. My own dad used to come for holidays with my mom and her current husband. So I am aware it can happen. I am sorry if things did not work out that way for you. And they may not work out that way for me, but I can dream of some day having peace.
i agree not to lie, but allow the fairy tale!!
i always asked questions -- like really? you don't think there is a santa claus?? etc. Its fun for the imagination. My grown daughter now tells how she used to listen for the reindeer's footsteps on the roof -- and one night she thought she heard them!! Its a fun thing. But no, i never lied. If you EVER lie to your children, they will always question your honesty in a sensitive matter.
How about $4,000 for one tooth?
I live in North Georgia and having 1 implant put in, 4000 smackeroos.
Could be tooth abscess?
nm
One tooth, implant
$4,000.00 for me. Have lower partial and all top teeth are crowns but I would estimate, oh, a small fortune.
Long in Tooth (!)
Some amount of gum recession is normal -- That's where the phrase came from: Long in tooth means "getting old."
I recently had some caps redone. They had been put on when I was 16 & now my gums had receded so that you could see the silver part at the base of the ceramic ceramic.
But there is definitely the problem of losing enamel from the surface. I tried a SoniCare for awhile & my dentist told me to stop because he could see little scratches. I think I was being too aggressive with it, but I just didn't feel like my teeth were clean unless I was scrubbing away. Now I just use Oral-B with soft bristles.
Have you used a tooth whitening system?
Like Crest Whitestrips or something else? Anything other than having the dentist do it? (That's so expensive!)
I have a similar problem with an eye tooth
had to have taken out due to bone loss and all and got a flipper until I decide on something more permanent. Mine looks so natural and has no metal so you can't tell at all. Insurance won't pay, was 300.00, but it was worth it because it went in immediately after the tooth was pulled. At first was hard to eat bagels etc but as I got used to it and now have no problems. Here's a site I found and I'm sure there is a lot more info and pictures if you search dental flippers.

Huh? How did you break a tooth there that you wouldn't have (sm)
anywhere else?
I had 1 tooth implant and my gosh,
had no idea it would take thatttttttt long, over a year in fact for 1. Like the above poster said, you have to let heal between this and that. I had a canine tooth done and actually it was from 08/2007 to 12/2008 before finished. What I did not like was the false tooth they tried to insert between going back and forth to do this and that, lots of office visits making sure healing, etc. It also cost me $4,000 for that 1 tooth. Quite expensive but maybe if you have more done, might get a reduced price? My mouth probably most expensive place on me, lots of dental work in the past.
Cost of tooth extraction
How much does a tooth extraction cost? I have no dental insurance so will be paying out of pocket. I am pregnant and since being pregnant this toothache has gotten worse and worse. I am to the point now that I can't take the pain anymore. Also does anyone know if you call a dentist and tell them you are in pain if they will work you in asap? Thanks.....I just never knew that a toothache would be so painful.
I do have a crown on this tooth and have had a lot of surgeries on it but it is failing now so the
next step is removing it. The teeth on either side are not the best because they were also damaged when I was young with this one.
Have friend who has false front tooth. Can be done. Looks
xxx
Anyone here ever had to wear a flipper until getting a tooth implant and how did it go. nm
:
Did anyone ever have a dental implant for a front tooth and wish to say what
they thought about the whole process with wearing a flipper, etc. until the implant.
I have to have a front tooth removed because it cant be fixed anymore and has had all it can have
done to it. It was damaged when I was young along with the one beside it. Has anyone had a front tooth removed and instead of an implant had a partial or something put in for 1 tooth. What do you recommend other than an implant. I have lost a lot of bone with this tooth so it would be a very long process for an implant. This tooth has cost me a fortune so far.
/;) umm no but a friend lost a front tooth and had to go without - which is worse? she'd say us
:)
Did anyone ever have a tooth removed after it was root canaled etc. and very brittle. I am
concerned about it breaking off in pieces being so brittle from all the work done on it and now is infected again. Brother, always something. It is a front tooth no less.
I have to have front tooth removed after multiple apicos on it and it just keeps reinfecting. The
tooth next to it is also not the best having had surgeries so bridging is not an option. These teeth were broken when I was a kid. Any suggestions other than an implant for the space. This is quite upsetting as I have spent a fortune on these 2 front teeth.
Anyone ever have a front tooth pulled and have to wear a flipper for awhile up there. nm

You're so funny!!! That's what I wanted - funny redneck stories
Just kinda tired of my house looking like Sanford and Son - LOL!
She needs hard things to help wear the tooth down. Try clean branches, a wooden spoon, wood chews
s
That is too funny... I'm sure it wasn't funny at the time.
ss
Funny looking Bob with the funny looking wife
Thats funny!! Thanx
x
too funny !!!
It's funny that you say this...
about "sounding rude". I wonder how much time your in laws and family members actually put into their decision before asking you to care for their mother? I wonder if it has even occurred to them that they are being rude to even consider asking this of you when there are professionals who can do this and should do this for their mother?
Believe me, you have no idea how much of yourself you actually lose when thrown into a situation that's convenient for everyone else. Believe me, everyone else has figured out how to say "no" by passing the responsibility on to you so that they can continue their lives without being inconvenienced.
However, you're right in being polite; however, you can still say "no" and not be rude. Don't feel guilty either for not playing the martyr.
This is so funny!!! LOL!!
I have an 18-year-old son who LOVES to be on the computer doing the instant message thing. He knows all the lingo, codes, blah blah blah. Well, he is not used to the Short Hand being on on my computer, but sometimes he uses my computer when I am not working. Can you see where I am going with this?
Anyway, he (and probably a dozen other of his buddies) were instant messaging each other on line. So my son needs to go do something and he just typed BRB for "be right back." He jumped up and did not see this expand to BRIGHT RED BLOOD.
LOLOL. Frantically, word travelled through cyberspace that something must have happened because he just typed in bright red blood and left. When he finally went back to his screen he had all these worried messages...are you all right? what happened??? are you alive???
I got the best laugh out of that! He had to explain to everyone who had "heard" just what had happened and now he is much more careful.
How funny - if he
had put that in on my computer it would be "bright red blood per rectum" Not a great idea!
Oh, that's funny!
That must be the game system that I have heard talked about and someone laughingly said that this game would actually give you carpal tunnel, pulled muscles, etc.

Funny...

How funny!
Gave me a good laugh, which I needed! Thanks.
Funny too how you can think that you like
they have made here, and then all of the sudden realize they are not as nice as they seem by other posts that they make.
funny
Born and bred Texas, but never heard that before - i'm trying to figure out if it could be a compliment ???
This is funny because.....
I grew up with these sayings and use these all the time in my everyday talking without thinking about it. Hubby comes to me all the time when things he hears at work asking me what does this mean, such as "buying a pig in a poke", "don’t look a gift horse in the mouth", "leaving someone high and dry", so many, so little time.....I throw these around because where I came from everyone knows what they mean and we think nothing about using them. Bless his little short self he doesn’t know and I laugh when he tells me to speak "English."
LOL! Too funny . . .
When I told my son (after a couple of years of him questioning it because peers had already told him), he said, "The thing that made it most believable is that we never have a lot of money, but there is always so much cool stuff on Christmas morning!"
Too funny! >^..^<
My funny
One of my ESL doctors said the patient's lower extremities have disappeared. LOL.
That is too funny!
that was funny!...nm
nm
and that would be me...*how funny*....s/m
 And I'm a woman of my word - I never steer people wrong, rarely give unsolicited advice, and let me state it was fun emailing with you today!! *giggling*......Nice to put the people with their posts...*lol* I never put a name in but you know my name as I do yours now.
*too funny* 
Have a GREAT evening :)
OMG! That's too funny!
She's so adorable though I think I can overlook it!
Funny you should say that (sm)
We were watching the news while eating breakfast this morning and they had bad reviews of Premonition, and I told DH, "Well if they don't like it, I'll probably love it". That's what usually happens.
That is too funny, and just to think my
hubby told me just today he had to give colas up, hmmm..
Funny, my mom too!
And I have used everything else you can think of, now 40-something, and my skin looks like crap :( Gonna get me some of that miracle potion too!
That's so funny! sm
The strange thing is, I've seen adult birds (I don't know what kind, but they aren't very big - not crows or anything) harrass the cats far more than the other way around. The birds will dive-bomb the cats if they dare to walk out in the open, and the cats just duck their head down and run to get away.
I've always wondered why the cats put up with it, why they don't just stand their ground and swat at the bird. I think the birds must be protecting a nest to be this bold. I've seen them dive-bomb our dogs too. It seems there is always one bird who will "stand watch" and become very vocal if anyone (us, dogs, cats) go into the yard. I halfway expect them to dive-bomb me one of these days. They aren't foolin' around!
that's really FUNNY!!! ..........s/m
I don't know how that would happen...unless Diana is *padding* her age.
All I can say is I was at the Brooklyn Fox Theater with my older sister MANY times standing outside waiting to see shows with Little Anthony and the Imperials, Otis Redding, Martha and the Vandellas, Smoky Robinson and the Miracles, the Shirelles, and many many other groups when I was 12. I also saw similar groups at the Apollo Theater in Harlem when my school took us all there when I was 16, was the last time I/we ever saw Otis Redding unfortunately. The Tymes and the Shirelles came to my high school for the graduation/prom events to perform.
Diana Ross and the Supremes...I cannot remember if they were there at the Brooklyn Fox theater....they were not at the Apollo when I was there, but I loved the Supremes songs...I was such a Motown person, still love that era of music/songs.
fun reminiscing.....
lol, funny!
