Adding Insult to Injury

 

The Mister went to bed with a terrible toothache Thursday night and had to have an emergency extraction in the morning.



Our dentist is just off the boardwalk at the beach and it was raining RAINING. Buckets and buckets. We were under an areal flood warning so we knew what to expect. 



The Bay was also pretty ticked off about it and wouldn't let the storm drains do their thing. 




We've got a new pumping system but it was working overtime to no avail. 




Yikes. That's the parking lot and it was underwater. As if all this humidity wasn't bad enough. Just look at that mess. 



He had to take several detours to get to the dentist but the nasty tooth is out. Poor guy. Yesterday was pretty all around awful.

    I'm so sorry-there are few things worse than a bad toothache! Glad it is out and he can heal now. Yikes is right to the flooding! My DH is on his way to MD then CT to help with the new storm, Henri, and the possible power outages! (he does storm assessment for the power company during emergencies!)

    That stinks! I'm glad he was able to get there though.

    Lucky the dentist was open so he could get it done! Hope he feels better! Stay safe!

    I'm sorry that there was so much to deal with. Praying that the flooding is gone and the Mister is feeling much better. We have to find a new dentist and I dread it. We absolutely loved our last one.

    You have all my sympathy! I hate dental work. Floods are terrifying. And both together are just unreasonable!
