Jell-O, Jell-O and more Jell-O

Because of my wisdom teeth being pulled,
this is what I'm forced to eat for the next week, maybe longer.

Tonight I tried to eat spaghetti (sauce and macaroni noodles)...I didn't get too far because I was again afraid to chew and it just plain hurt. So......looks like I'm sticking to Jell-O, Pudding, Mashed Potatoes and drinkable soups. Unless you absolutely have to have your wisdom teeth pulled, I strongly encourage this statement -- "If it aint broke, don't fix it". This has been a non-enjoyable experience, it started off good, but has gone down hill. I only worked until 2:30 today, after a bad episode this morning of almost passing out. I think after 4 days of not doing anything and no appetite caught up with me when I actually had to roll out of bed at 7 a.m. I'm rinsing my mouth out with warm salt water 4 times a day. I'm not hungry for the things that I can eat and dream about the things I CAN'T eat. (Oh.....Fried Chicken.....Tacos......Pizza.....STEAK!!)

The only good thing to come of this is that I get to eat ice cream more often than I should, it's the only thing that makes my mouth feel good.
