Anyone for golf?

I had my lower left wisdom tooth out yesterday and have now got a lump on the side of my face the size of a golf ball. I look like a demented chipmunk. ;0)

DH (helpfully) told me it's bigger today than yesterday. I'm still feeling dizzy from the anaesthetic, my mouth hurts if I open it too much (which starts the stitches bleeding again) and I don't feel like eating much so today has been a bit crap really.

We had a 4 hour wait yesterday after arriving - we got there at 8am and I finally went down for the op at 12. DH fell asleep in the chair which made me so glad I took my knitting with me. In fact, I almost finished one sock for DS with the yarn I Kool Aid dyed a couple of weeks ago, there's only the rib left to do.
I'm quite pleased with how it's turned out.

Gosh, that looks painful! Take it easy and make everyone wait on you! Your Kool-Aid yarn looks great, I'm about to start knitting mine up. It's exciting to see what it loks like! Yours is fab!

Sorry to hear about your sore mouth. At least you were able to have the surgery and didn't have to wait again. I remember having my wisdom teeth out and it was very painful. I couldn't eat for a week. The only good thing was that I lost 10 pounds!
Your Kool-Aid yarn sock looks great. Wonderful dyeing job!

Hi Linda

Hope you feel better soon, are we still on for Saturday?

Thanks for the kind thoughts everyone. I'm slowly starting to feel better but it's taking longer than I thought it would.

Kelly - I'm definitely going on Saturday - even looking like a chipmunk won't keep me away! *LOL*
