Me and Rich and dentist appointments this morning. I scheduled our appointments together before his first morning class. We dropped our kids off at my friends Cami's house and off we went to the dentist together. It was date! It was so nice to be together in the car just the two of us, no kids, no distractions and just talk. We made bets on who would have the most cavities, I lost that bet. I wasn't surprise, I have horrible teeth. I've been going to the same dentist since I moved to Provo in 98, I think it can be hard to find a doctor you can trust and doesn't take advantage of your checkbook. When you walk into my dentist office, someone always greets you instantly by your first name. I've never had to wait more then 5 minutes in the lobby before they call me back. Then my hygienist Shannon will clean my teeth, we will catch up on what's new in eachother's lives. Then Dr. Jones will come back and see me. Sometimes, I secretly hope I have 1 or 2 cavities because I love to go back to get the happy gas! Is it wrong that I like it so much?? After our visit with Dr. Jones, we meet with Linda the friendly billing lately. She then asks me how my kids are, she always remembers their names. She gives us a estimate of how much our bill will be after insurance is billed. Then she walks us out to the lobby, offers us a cold beverage and a snack, and walks us to the door. Your in and out in an hour. I love going to the dentist!! I hate paying the bill, but they treat their patients so nice.
On our way home, I seriously couldn't remember the last time me and Rich were alone together. With his work and school schedule I rarely see him. It was really nice to spend this morning with him. It made me realize that it doesn't matter what you do together as a couple, even if it is just a date to the dentist.

Ur funny! You love going to dentist just for gas. I hate going to dentist. It still freaks me out! I was scared to get a numbess shot last Thurs. Yikes! That is so nice that you and Rich got to be alone without kids. I bet you both needed it since RIch is busy with school and work. Glad you both got to do it.
Hey, when Joe's a dentist you can come anytime and get you some gas!!!
You are so funny Teri! Back when I was in hygiene school, & I was getting certified to give the gas I had many people volunteer to come be my patient for me to practice on! Lots of people love it. :)
