Dentist appointment the third

[wiseheart]

I finally got one of my teeth filled. For that, I had to cross the city in sweltering heat, and the dentist worked on me almost an hour and a half. She had to do some laser work on my gums and other complicated stuff. It didn't hurt, but it wasn't pleasant, either... or cheap. The edge of the newly filled tooth is still a bit sharp, I'll have her smoothe it over when I go back on Wednesday for the other tooth to be done. *sigh*

On my way home I also did the shopping; fortunately, I managed to catch a modern, air-conditioned tram, so I spent the 35-minute journey in a nice, cool wagon. In the supermarket, I briefly visited their creative aisle and discovered a package of lovely, patterned small buttons that were on sale - I paid less than a quarter of the original price! It was definitely a lucky coincidence.

I came home completely drained. As I still had no feeling in half of my face, we decided to eat our leftovers (the same things as yesterday) later, and I had a nice, long phone chat with my young friend and ex-colleague Alex. She's such a nice girl, talking to her is always a delight.
Then we ate, and I fell asleep in front of the telly, until now.

Weather forecast promises a cold front for tomorrow - seeing the strong wind that is coming up right now, it seems more than likely. I just hope it won't come with stormy rain; the last thing I need is to wipe up water on the balcony half the night.

Glad it's behind you! At least you've got that appointment behind you.

True! It should have been done in March, but then the virus intervened...

A lot of thing have had to be put on the backburner thanks to CV.

Fingers crossed for no heavy rain!

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

Thanks. So far we've only had light rain today, I hope it will stay that way.

I was supposed to have a dentist's appointment in two weeks but their office has been closed for months so I think I'm safe in assuming it's been cancelled (it was made before the virus scare shit hit the fan.)

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

Yeah, mine too. But they called me as soon as they re-opened the practice to give me a new appointment.

[chocolate-frapp.livejournal.com]

mine hasn't reopened yet, I don't know when that's gonna happen.

Wow, laser stuff too?

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It stinks. Literally.

[adafrog.livejournal.com]

Ick.

Ugh, hope the next appointment goes well. We've had days of rain - maybe the rain will give your balcony a break, hehe.

Your word in God's ear!

Who would want to be a dentist in these times? They are only just opening here, taking emergencies only.

I guess she needs to earn some money to feed her family.

I am glad you got to the dentist and got the tooth sorted out.

Ad air conditioned trams and bargain buttons are the sort of small things that hep make life better :)

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

That they are indeed - and we need them desperately. :)

Congrats on getting your teeth fixed. I need to have that done one day, but keep procrastinating. The dentist and the eye doctor, not covered under general insurance, and always, for me at least. both cost a fortune. :0(

Hope the cold front brings you cooler weather without a balcony leak.

Your word in God's ear! We've been lucky... so far. *fingers crossed*
