Ha...I did it!!!

[abaggett2]

Just wanted to toot my own horn.  I had the dentist appt today and was really not looking forward to it at all.  I drove to the dentist, prayed while still in the car, got out and walked in.  Went straight to the bathroom and then sit down.  They called me back and let me tell you.  These woman knew how I felt and did everything to make me feel better.  They put a fan where it would hit right on me, did not lean my chair all the way back, and once the temp was off my dentist came right over and had my new veneer on in about 5 minutes.  The worst part was getting the temp off cuz it was really stuck on there and was making me nervous.  I got up from the chair and was a little shaky and dizzy, but walked out of there and was so proud.  Just wanted to share my story.  Thanks for reading.  Yea ME!

Ha..just to toot my horn one more time...lately I have had a phobia about going in to a place then having to stand in line.  Well, it is time to renew my license and since I work for the Police Dept I have to make sure I get this done before mine expire.  So, one day last week I made myself go to the the DMV and wait for my turn, well it was not pretty.  I got called up pretty quickly and I gave her my old license and then the money, told her nothing has changed and then...I quickly excused myself to go to the bathroom.  Once in there I talked myself OUT of a panic attack.  Even though I knew I still had to go out there, do the eye test and take the picture.  I was able to go back out there, do the eye test, get the picture and then instead of waiting inside the building for the new license I went outside and then went back in a few minutes later to pick it up.  It was not the way I planned it in my head (like just making myself do it and not worry about it), but was so grateful and happy that I DID it.  Yeah me!!!
Have a blessed day.

Congratulations!

I have to make yet another dentist appointment very soon, but I'm not afraid because I've been so many times in the past couple months anyway.

Well done! It sucks that the best way to eliminate a fear is to face it, but once you just do it...it feels so good.  Good for you!  You should be proud!
