Good Morning E, M, and AZ! I'll be around about 11:30ish AM board time.

I had a great question and subject to talk about while I was trying to get to sleep last night and thought I'd be able to remember it this morning and I couldn't. I really need to start writing this stuff down as I feel a lot of it is important for us to discuss. Maybe I can think of it again later.

Morning folks. I wanted to let you know that I will not be around until chat time tonight. I have some business things in real life I need to complete that I have delayed for too long.

If hostess gives a challenge or puzzle to work on, please go ahead without me. I will be making a few posts late this evening because there are still a few things I wish to address and time is getting very short.

Take my absence on the board today to mean that I am making my bed before I leave the house. In real life when I leave my room, I like being able to look back when I leave and see everything in its place and somewhat in order. I am not always successful, but I can try.

So if you see me post and I don't join a conversation that is going on, it is just because I am trying to get things completed and can't get distracted or it will not get done.

Ok, Merlin, I understand. I'll definitely miss you being around today for the challenge and all. When you say you are making your bed before leaving the house, I hope that doesn't mean you're going to vanish. I may be reading into that wrong and hope I am. I still have a lot to talk to you about.

Take care and talk to you later.

You wanted to know how people view you in here and you should know my answer by now.

Seeya soon.

Good Morning M, E, and AZ !!!

Good Morning Everyone in Peanutland!

Yesterday turned out to be fantastic, especially after we all gathered in groupchat and for other reasons. I still feel I have a lot to say but at the same time I also feel I have some personal cleanup to do from the first few days in here. Don't ask. All I can say is that it's very tough to deal with considering how everything turned out over the last few weeks. I'm hoping everyone outside is reading my RRs and I can't wait to talk to a select few of you when all this is over.

Anyway, I wish everyone a great day and I'll see everyone this evening around 4 or 5 boardtime (maybe an hour or two sooner if I can get here).

Good Morning Gu, Az, And Merl.

Looks like I will be rambling around the house by myself all day - at least till 3 board time. Looking forward to my dentist appointment at 8 this morning - I just love pain.

I know Merlin will not be here during the day - it is a beautiful day in Houstin, the sun is shining, somewhat cool but probably in the 70s this afternoon.

Wish I could play hooky again, but the life of a contractor is such that hooky has immediate financial consequences.

I'll try to catch up on the board today what I missed over the weekend - and give you some reading material before chat tonight :)

Well that was a heck of a lot of fun.

I had a filling that had to be redone - been in there a long time and it was starting to show some real wear and tear.

So as the dentist is applying the anesthetic, he hits the nerve. All of a sudden pain shoots through my mouth and I almost come out of the chair and deck the guy. He says they always shoot for the nerve, but only hit it about twice a year. I guess my luck is running high - win the coin toss for immunity and now get that one in thousands chance of a nerve getting hit by a needle.

The remaining visit was somewhat anticlimatic - what is the pain of a little drilling after that?

Waiting for the mouth to stop being numb so I can talk again. Lucky he didn't slip and hit my fingers.

LOL! I've had that same thing happen before and it's not pleasant. Fortunately, I'm very comfortable with my dentist and like him, especially since he throws some computer work my way every now and then.


This may be of interest to all viewers:

I was watching something on NBC yesterday that people may want to be aware of, especially in Texas (unfortunately). It appears that quite a few dentists are choosing to cap children's teeth (especially those from low income families) with stainless steel caps instead of filling the tooth properly. Medicaid pays the dentist $69 per cap versus about $18 for a filling. One child they showed on TV had all his teeth capped with stainless steel. Another had partial and told how he was made fun of at school. All this was in Texas, but some other states are doing the same thing. Three of the top Dental board members in Texas fought this practice until they were basically pushed to resign in disgust. One of them had tears in his eyes when he was telling what was being done to the kids. All 3 looked like they might be in their lower 60s.

This is just something to be aware of when you or your children go to the dentist. Make sure he or she isn't on the Medicaid Fraud Plan and don't sign up for anything if someone comes up and tries to peddle you free dental service for your kids through Medicaid.
