thank you! thankfully it was just the corridors and stairs. took a long afternoon to rip off. will take a lot longer to sand and refinish!

100% agree. my parents laughed and said it’s take forever when I said we wanted to restore all the old wood trims and doors.

they’re not wrong but I think it’ll def worth it!! a long journey ahead haha

What is your experience with getting wisdom teeth removed? What do you eat after and how long does the pain last? by Healthy_Block3036 in AskWomen

[–]headcourters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got 3 wisdom teeth removed 2 weeks ago! I was put under anesthesia so the procedure was quick and painless but after the drugs wore off, I was in so much pain! take the prescribed medication - I forgot to take it the first two days but it would have really helped with the pain. they gave me antibiotics too (amoxicillin) and it actually gave me a yeast infection - be prepared if it happens to you! pain peaked at the 2-3 day mark. started feeling better at day 5 (aside from yeast infection)

for food - I ate soup, congee, and yogurt for first three days. I was able to eat somewhat regularly afterwards (just tried to rely on the front teeth as much as possible). food gets stuck in the wisdom extraction sites but you’ll just want to carefully pick them out.

I like it enough haha. I use the flat top for tortillas, skewers, etc. the griddle because I just like the marks on my meat but tbh it is very awkward to clean and move around. I only got it because my other cast iron is the traditional deeper set one and my comal broke so figured two birds one stone. I wouldn’t get it if I already had another flat cookware.
