So my dental program is almost done, my teeth are almost all repaired other than a pair of crowns that need placing when my gums are finally strong enough to take that kind of abuse.

it's taken almost 2 years since my mugging to get myself back to health and cost me a good fortune too and with some periods of mild to extreme discomfort its almost all over.

still with that said my gums are still not ready for the final stages so I'm practically burning money at this point until they are, although last week was something heinous to go through, I got a filling from a stand in for my dentist - turns out she didn't bother to check my files and did the crown as one normally would, so the filling came out after a day taking a chunk of tooth with it and split the gum a little, I had to get rushed back in and have a new larger filling placed and the bit of tooth glued back into place, I'm on strong painkillers right now and spent nearly all of last week sleeping thanks to the medication.

the dentist in question is now in quite a bit of trouble although it's not really much to do with me anymore as there now worried she's been ignoring other patients needs whilst she was covering for the local surgery's head - so stuff there will probably take some shaking up in the next few weeks.

In the mean time I'm still on the meds even through work which was not a pleasant experience since I was half dosing whilst doing heavy lifting, but hopefully by the end of this week I will be off them.

I also recently had to go see the doctor just for a check up since I keep getting sickly lately, she thinks it's mostly due to stress from both work and the afore mentioned dental work - this is fine and I'm trying to take time to relaxed and do my own thing for a bit but it isn't this what bothers me, it's the fact that she had me do the whole shamble with a blood test and blood pressure etc which all turned up fine and then she started on me about my weight...

For those who have seen my pictures you can tell I am by no means over weight or underweight in fact I wear M sized trousers clothing which is around a 32 inch around.

yes I'm a little unfit but I do take weekly walks for 30 to 40 minutes 3 times a week and my job is very active, so it's kind of confusing to me when she starts going on about how I should lose some weight to be healthy and giving me a leaflet to "someone who can help" which is just to the local gym.

mostly I suspect this is a promotional thing: scare your clients into a gym membership and we will give you a finder's fee, the fact is I don't need it nor appreciate that she tried that line with me, she probably won't try that again after my own mother berated her about it (she drove me up and was listening to the last part) which was quiet amusing.

In other news I will be getting to the commissions I have left this week in short order, family life is been a little hectic when I'm not sleeping but I'll get there.

On the subject of commissions, when I ask for details please at least try to respond properly?

I say for example "ok do you want a single image? comic strip? colour with background?"

your meant to give me info so I can actually start this stuff the response isn't "my character with that character doing this" that tells me nothing of what I need to actually start other than a concept.
