Leah--I am glad all went well for you. I know what you are talking about the dentist. He is the last person I would like to see for a while. :) Enjoy being pampered. :p :p
 
Oh, I'm glad it went well for you! I'm *so* afraid of the dentist. I have a root canal tomorrow and he gave me a prescription for Valium so I wouldn't have another panic attack.
