Hi Friends,

 

Hope everyone is having a good start to their week.

 

I went for my dental cleaning and saw a new hygienist. She was excellent and so gentle, I could barely feel her doing any work. 
She did an excellent job and commended both my husband and myself on our oral hygiene.

 

I give credit to the Phillips Sonic care brush. 
I also give credit to the teeth attached to my partials. Not much work you can do on those suckers. 😆 

 


Hi, to you, too, @KBEANS!   Sounds like a positive experience, something we don't always associate with visits to dentists.  I had some traumatic experiences with a bad dentist when I was a little tot.  Oddly enough, after I graduated from college fate put me in a place to do office and computer work in a general dentistry practice and later with an orthodontic group, automating their systems.  It helped me so much to work through the bad associations.

Isn't it interesting how life's path changes us, sometimes bad but other times good.

(((hugs)))❤️

@Yahooey , I'm glad my internet came back online last night, just in time to read about your trip. Yes, it was out again. 😞 

 

BTW, has anyone heard from @Drythe ?

Welcome back @Yahooey  

 

I am in the office today. 😳 

 

I'm having a medical procedure next Wednesday to figure out some options. I am not looking forward to it. Thankfully I'll be knocked out 🤣

Good morning Friends,

 

I think I'll tackle my laundry today...if I get up the courage.

I always say this because; I have to take my laundry down to the laundry room in our building.

 

Some days there's so much drama and discourse down there.

I don't want to get involved in it.

It's like they run to the dryers and try to claim them prematurely, meanwhile yours has already stopped and they're blocking you from putting your load in on time!

That's just one issue.  The gossiping is another! And they do it loudly and proudly!

 

The other is that people sometimes can't MTOB!

 

They won't look at you while their traveling around the building, won't hold a door, but let you know how rude you are when you do it too them.

All of a sudden, down there, they become "know it alls". They tell you how, where, when, and what water temp you should be using, and not to clear the lint traps out while they're in the room.

 

 If  they leave the room and don't come back, Heaven forbid you remove their clothing because you need a machine, they go berserk...unless they do this to you! The rules state this can be done.
 It's unbelievable.


I have had several verbal battles down there. I don't start any, but sure as he ll  😈 will finish one!

 

Also, I notice that the women in the laundry room, take advantage of the men...meaning they tend to do the aggressive jumping in front of them more,  telling them in advance that they will be using certain dryers as soon as their washer is done, and the men don't protest and buckle because, I guess they're afraid to look like they're fighting with woman. ( it is a bad look 😂). They do this on purpose to them.

That's why I always go down, because if my husband does, he'll let all the biddies get in front of him and be down there for longer than necessary. 😝 

 

Oh my 😱 I just became exhausted and hyper writing about this 😝 Maybe I'll put it off! HAHAHA! 

 

@Mj12  I am hoping your procedure goes well next week and for a quick bounce back! 🤗

landed in seattle time - early morning - checked into hotel - too early so left luggage and walked UPHILL - i mean uphill no exaggerattion -let me put it this way 

 

i had a fit app - did over 16,000 steps - ioncludes 12 flights of stairs

i did NOT climb any stairs - the app calculated the hill

commented on the blueberries - found out one of our servers's family owns a small blueberry farm - it is opened to the public the coming weekend - you pick ur own

should we try to go blueberry picking?

 

my niece is a foodie - major foodie - when she travels - it is all food all the time

sight seeing - not so much - my only request was the Pike Place Market

walked around the nieghborhoods - can't even tell you where

lined with cute shops until time for dinner 530 reservation at Il Nido

I cant find a menu online - guess it changes

 

i took these screen shots from her instgram page -

all food photos were taken by her

 

it was a 3hr meal - all the meals were about 3 hrs -

you share and they bring each plate out and describe in detail

what you see and hear on some of these food shows

had so many things for the first time - ground cherries for instance

 

exhausted and uber bck to hotel - it was 9pm when we got there

that means 1am my time - i have been up for 22 hrs
