So, So Tired

I've decided to update my "stats" as the weeks past. Reminds of me of when I would post my practice DAT scores so I could watch as they improved. My first scores were really ugly. These numbers remind me a lot of my first scores. But they continue to improve.

I'm at a minor standstill with some as the holidays approach and I can't start new dentures and patients don't want to go through the holidays with temporaries. Who would? I don't blame them. So I'm just getting all my ducks in a row to wipe out 3 crowns as soon as we get back. I should start two full dentures in January. I should have my 2nd perio patient finished before Christmas, but I don't have another on board, yet. That's not good. I signed up to get some serious extractions and preprosth after Thanksgiving, and I'm thankful for the experience and credits. It includes mandibular tori removal, so that'll be neat. I sent more endo to grad last week, so it's the same story there. I did 3 fillings last week, so I really feel like I'm less afraid of the operative faculty and learning what I need to do to speed up. My progress exam is just around the corner, and after watching the results of the first one, I'm not very optimistic. It's pretty brutal.

I'm in desperate need of a Thanksgiving break as the weekends don't seem to refresh me much. My allergies are horrible and my head is fluffy and my eyes are just tired. I'm so thankful that we celebrate Thanksgiving, I just wish that maybe the pilgrims had done it in October, like the Canadians.
