DailyDi Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 So I've been looking for an open-weave hand-knitted afghan for a while. This last week I have been kind of out of it: I had a tooth ache I had to suffer through for 5 days before I could afford to see a dentist, and since then have been drugged out. Yesterday my Mom and step-dad come back from the Flea Mall with a brand new, full-size yellow-pink-and-blue afghan blankie for me! It's so comfy! Link to comment

Missy Q Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I used to have a blanket, long before I could remember. Apparently I named it "Bobby". Link to comment
Repaid1 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 oooowwwwweeeeee's I just totally...hard corps Marine and all can handle just about anything except a toothache. I hope that's all straightened out. For the life of me I can't figure out why (Insert supreme being here) would put a nerve into teeth. If I didn't know better I would think that was a cruel joke. I'm sure the Dental industry has this covered. But I for one wouldn't mind them injecting me with some DNA from a shark so that my teeth constantly recycled. That way I would never have to go through the pain again. I'm so sick of getting Root Canals, which I also find a unnecessary procedure and a sure profit for the dental crowd. How the hell do they figure they can charge $2000 for a tooth when a whole mouthfull of them cost $500. Anyway the Blankie sounds nice....I love mine, cept the mommies keeps stealing it in the middle of the night. Link to comment
OMFG Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I've slept with a blankey my whole life. My mom makes them for me. Little lap-sized quilts. I sleep terribly without a blankey. Link to comment

Anyway the Blankie sounds nice....I love mine, cept the mommies keeps stealing it in the middle of the night. It was a bad one too! The infection in the tooth was so bad it apparently "absorbed" the first two rounds of Novocaine, so we had two incredibly painful "attempts" at pulling it out before he broke out "The good sttuff" and made it properly numb... why can't we start with the good stuff? lol As for your shark theory - I once knew a guy who was quite literally a second generation imbreading baby and had 3 rows of teeth!

DailyDi Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 My blankie Two Questions: 1) Isn't my room cool? 2) What time was this photo taken? Link to comment
Guest Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Of course I of all people would notice what time the pic was taken, 4:20 Link to comment
Jabez Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Oooohh, I really like your blankie! Awesome color scheme! I had one with the same colors growing up and it had just about fallen apart, so I put it away due to sentimentle value... Now I have a microplush blanket deemed as my "blankie". And I'm sorry to hear about your toothache. I've been dealing with one the last couple of weeks because I don't have dental coverage through my work yet. But I hope that it won't be causing you anymore trouble. And I agree with Repaid1, I think it was a cruel joke to put nerves in teeth, lol. Link to comment
babykeiff Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I love your blankie, and I hope it gives you hours of pleasure and warmth. I am sorry about your tooth. If you ever get pain like that again, rinse your mouth out with natural sea-salt and warm water. The salt (sodium chloride) kills the bacteria that is causeing the infection / pain. The reason for the warm water is that your mouth is hypersensitive to temperature change, and the warm water - ideally between 36.1 and 37.5 °C (96.9 and 99.5 °F) - which is normal oral temperature. Due to the infection, you may actually find that water at 37.5°C / 99.5°F to be a little cool. Link to comment
DailyDi Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 I actually beat the infection twice before, this time it wasn't giving in! Link to comment
Dougie Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Doesn't boiling water kill bacteria? j/k It was 4:20 PM (there is light coming through the blinds). And yes, you room looks cool. Link to comment

Newroad Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I have a transformers blankie. Autobots on one side and Decepticons on the other.. lets Mommy know if I'm being good or bad Link to comment
babymaggie Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I have lots of blankies but my tow most favorite ones are the two that husband/daddy bought for me at Disney World. The first one is a red plush blankie that has a little Tinker Bell on it that daddy bought me when he flew me out to Florida to meet him for the first time that was December of 2007. The second blankie is a plush blue balnkie that has Cinderella's castle on it. I got that one for my birthday this year. I am only allowed to sleep with one blankie cause daddy says with more than one there is not room in the bed for us to sleep. Link to comment
DailyDi Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 Three of the pillows are there for me (two standard so there's always a cool one, one King for side-sleeping cuddling.) The rest are done by the person who makes the bed (mom) because HGTV said they should be there lol. Link to comment
