Ouch! I had a wisdom tooth pulled out today. I am surviving so far with NO pain killers. They prescribed me Vicodin. I had the prescription filled "just in case". However, I am not a fan of medication, especially pain killers. I also would like to avoid them as I am on the cleanse. I also have a strong threshold for pain. This isn't to say that everyone who gets wisdom teeth pulled out shouldn't take a pain killer. I am just saying give it a try. You might be surprised what your body can handle.
So I got the prescription filled. I am always curious about the "Possible side effects", and this medication's side effects were as follows: "Nausea; Constipation; Sedation; Dizziness; Vomiting; Dry mouth; Sweating; Anemia: Abnormal blood cell count; Change in urination frequency or amount". Holy Cow, that sounds worse then the pain. Now I realize those are just "possible" and in most cases "rare". However, what kind of poisons and toxins are in these medications that would cause such severe side effects?
Because I am not feeling well at all I am SO not in the mood for my lemon drink. Actually what I am craving right now is some cold natural apple sauce. However, I am stronger them my temptations and I will chug my drink down. Thank goodness for such an awesome family to take care of me and themselves so that I can get the rest I need! Through a blessing and prayer I know I will do this without pain killers!
Have a Happy Healthy Day!

Green Smoothie Mustache!
All of my kids love green smoothies. We usually have them in the mornings. Eliza couldn't wait for me to get the straws, so she picked it up and drank it! It fell in her face when she tipped the cup. I couldn't resist taking a pic! That's just cuteness.
The Master Cleanse
Today is day 4 of my 10 day Master Cleanse! I tried to start blogging the day after I started, but my blog wasn't being nice to me. I am loving the cleanse more this time then any other time I have done it. I usually try to keep it quiet when I am doing the cleanse. I don't want to hear the responses and reactions. However, it seems when I am all too "quiet" that it is more tempting for me to cheat. After all, if nobody knows that I am on a cleanse then nobody will know that I am cheating right? I also had my husband give me a blessing and it REALLY gave me the strength I need. I have done this cleanse about a dozen times or less since 2003. It is called The Master Cleanse by Stanley Burroughs. You can google it or email me for more info.
