The Sewing Mom

This is a fabulous Friday!  Why is it fabulous?  Because we have absolutely no plans!

This is the first Friday night since August that we haven’t had a football game to attend.  There is no softball tonight and no marching band.  What am I doing with my free night?  I’m sitting in front of the fireplace like a couch potato,  that’s what!

Enjoy your weekend!

I’m not sure if I ever mentioned it, but a few months ago, I had some very old silver fillings removed from 2 of my back molars.  I’d had the fillings forever and, as any science person knows, metal shrinks and swells with changes in temperature, so over time, the fillings were causing small cracks in my teeth.  This must be why metal is no longer used to fill cavities!  So, I now basically have permanent caps over 2 of my teeth.  It’s been several months, but I still find it difficult to eat on that side of my mouth and those 2 teeth are quite sensitive, especially when I’m rinsing my mouth out after brushing my teeth.

I’ve  never had sensitive teeth before, so this is all very new to me.  I’m considering a new product I discovered from Tom’s Of Maine a maximum strength sensitive toothpaste.  I think I could feel confident in the fact that I was still getting my teeth clean,. but with the natural ingredients in their product, I could also find relief from the sensitivity.  My husband might enjoy their Wicked Fresh!™ Mouthwash, it’s minty fresh!

Tom’s Of Maine is also hosting a contest for a chance to win a $500 Target gift card.  Visit That’s Wicked Fresh contest page  to enter for your chance to win.  I’ve experienced a lot of Wicked Fresh moments this fall, particularly when I think about sitting smooshed into the stadiums every Friday night watching the high school football games.  Trust me, I want to know I have a Wicked Fresh mouth when I am sitting that close to anyone!
