I spent a large part of today in the dental chair. After nearly a half-century of life, I now have my first dental crown. While the dentist ground away at a very old and large filling, I said the Rosary. I didn't pray that I would make it through the procedure - I knew I would. In addition to praying the Mysteries for today (Joyful, by the way), I ran through my usual litany of causes for prayers. The litany includes specific people with cancer, addictions, heart ailments and people recovering from surgeries and strokes. It sort of makes getting a new part of a tooth not such a big deal.
It still hurts, though!
