I need a place to whine a bit, and since I don't have blog, you'll have to bear with me  ;D

I was at the dentist today and it was a worst case scenario  :P. I'm getting an element of three false teeth: crown, bridge, crown. Today he filed down the two outer teeth, found caries on his way, made 5 or 6 dental impressions, had to make two additional injections because the first two started to get weaker, because it took so long, and at the end of the procedure, he had to extract the remains of the middle tooth of those three. There was no tooth left, only the root in the jaw. So he couldn't pull it, but had to stem it out with a leverage.  :P

I had a nap, I took an Advil - but this day is still sh*t. I'm fed up with the whole world today.

Chrissi, I know how you feel.  I have 17 root canals (Würzelbehandlung), and four bridges, and in the course of getting them done three teeth were taken out.  I guess I can count myself lucky that I could afford to have the bridges (at last!), and that I have few other medical problems!

Thank you all for your kind words and congrats  :-*.
It's a bit better this morning. Still hurts. Not like hell, but bad enough  :P. Gues I'll take another Advil and hope the best.

On the bright side, I don't have grey hair anymore  :). I dyed my hair for the first time in more than nine years. I didn't do it to hide the grey in the first place, but it's a nice side-effect  :).

How was your lazy day yesterday, L? Were you able to take the top down?

Chrissi, you poor baby! I hope you are feeling better today! And contrats on your hair too! YAY!!! :D

If you wish to have someone to suffer and sympathize with, you should talk to Melissa. That poor girl has been through pure H E L L  at the dentist these past few months. I'm sure she has plenty of "horror stories" to swap with you!! :-*

Morning all,

34 degrees this morning and it looks like another nice day is in store for us.

My day yesterday was very nice, Chrissi. I did pay the bills and do some chores and I ended up going to work for a few hours, but all in all, it was more relaxing than usual. And yes, I did put the top down. It was great!

Well you wouldn't be putting the top down here.  It's unusually cold and wet, with more of the same predicted.

Anybody want to try their hand at posting today's Top Ten?  It looks like David could use the help today.

I just drove in the car, top down, and the car thermometer said it was 80 degrees. Typical Maine, we go from freezing to summer inside of a day!

We seemed to have skipped it this year. We had so much snow and the ground was so frozen for so long, it never got muddy. Weird.
