No other drug can do what hydrocodone (vicodin) does! My teeth were in a big hurt this weekend without it. I called the pharmacy to refill but by noon today they had not heard from the dentist's office so I called the dentist's people and within an hour I had my precious drug. When part of your bone is removed, let me tell you, you need more than a few of these puppies.
We saw The Help yesterday and loved it although I felt guilty being white and having any relation at all to the 60's in the South, which I did. Although we had a maid when I was growing up, we treated her quite differently than you see in the movie, and we were in DC, not the deep south, where cultural norms were so much better than in Jackson, MS. I remember her, Jesse, as being young and took care of both me and my grandfather. She was a terrible cook as I recall as well. HA! I don't think we employed her for more than 2 years at the most. Not sure how everyone arranged to care for me after that. . .Kind of a blur. Do you have that blur sometimes about your childhood? And now there is no one left to ask!
We loved our brunch (their first ever) at PLANT, a vegan restaurant which friends of ours opened on Merrimon Ave. Patrick had the pancakes and I had the Reuben. Both were excellent and we would have both again. The cinnamon roll, for dessert, was awesome! Thanks, Alan, Leslie and Jason, for taking the dive into restaurant land to give people another option for great dining in Asheville!
Met with Ron today to get the photos and videos he has taken over the past year onto an external hard drive I got. Should be interesting to see what is there and edit something for our video/slide presentation on September 24th for our thank-you party.
We then went to the DMV to get new plates and I swear the clerks talked to each other for 15 minutes before waiting on someone. Hmmmmm..
We then went to Carmel's and had lunch outside (asparagus and mushroom pizza - yum). Our second dining out this week!
I have been working this afternoon on the notebook for the head of our commissioners. He moved the time and location of the meeting tomorrow. Not 30 minutes in his political office as originally scheduled, we now have 60 minutes and we're meeting in his law office,so I think that is a very good sign. I hope you guys will keep your fingers crossed that this meeting is productive and he supports our position on anti-tethering. I'll post tomorrow what we think.
All for now,
Peggy
Arrggghhh! I have to go to the dentist tomorrow for a small cavity and your dental story is scaring me . . . they removed some bone?!?!?! Hope the pain pills are keeping you happy and pain-free! I want to read The Help, too, but haven’t had a chance yet. Then I want to see the movie! Which was your favorite—book or movie? And I can’t believe we missed you at Plant—we went yesterday for brunch, too! And we had the pancakes and cinnamon bun! Plus the sausage biscuit with gravy (delicious!). And then we had to get another cinnamon bun to take home! We were there at 11 and are looking forward to going back sometime soon. I have heard that everything is phenomenal, esp their dessert! Good luck tomorrow and hope you are feeling better after the dental surgery (OUCH!). :) michelle
