Just had a root canal procedure done on my tooth last night, talk about pain. Oh I was numb with local anaestetic, but the fact I have to keep my mouth opened for almost an hour none stop was pretty painful. It still hurts a little which is strange, because I thought the nerves endings in the tooth had been taken out, so I am not sure why I still feel pain in my tooth when I chew or eat. Crap. Still got to take out the troublesome wisdom tooth too, but I guess that will have to wait until the root canel job is completed. Remember kids, brush your teeth two times a day!

Hi folks, Sorry for not updating the blog recently (its been like 2 months now!). Have been busy with many different things. So here's a quick post to let you know I'm still alive, albeit in a lot of pain. Recently visited the dentist and took out a wisdom tooth that was causing a lot of bother. Now that its taken out, its still causing bother because I developed a high fever the very next day. The fever is gone now, but the mouth still feels rather sore and painful. Bread and baby food for me in the next few days I think. I will try to get the back-posts updated onto the blog. Its almost 2 months worth of post and photos, so it may take a while. In the meantime, here's a summary: - Wisdom tooth taken out, in extreme pain. Congrats to Bhavesh and Pragna on tying the knot! Got in touch with a blast from the past, Mark Corlett (formerly known as Mark Horrocks), geez your eldest is starting school soon?!? Happy Mother's Day! (13/05/2007) Brother-in-law is back livin...

..killing me.  Not sure why, but I'm feeling a lot of pain in my back. Well last night was a night to remember.  A huge massive argument broke out between the various members of my wife's family.  There were a lot of shouting and some crying, but it all ends up with me comforting everyone to make sure everyone is OK.  Sure there's mis-understandings, lots of questions and lessons to be learnt from all parties, but at the end of the day, life goes on moving forward, not backwards.   I think I have come to realise this a bit more.  I can't hang around in the past.  I need to look to the future and work out a way to make things better.  Life is tough as usual, but if it isn't tough, then its not life.  I just have to carry on and plough the field of life and hope that something worthwhile will grow.
