Bright & Cold

[debris4spike]

Yes, the weather is lovely ... wall to wall sunshine ... but it's certainly chilly.  I really need to check out my heating before it gets much further into winter.  I have a terrible feeling the boiler has pretty much died.  So that is a bill, and a challenge, to sort out soon.

Yesterday was a good day at work, but my planned morning din't pan out as by the time I had sorted out banking, shopping, washing etc, etc the morning had gone.

Monday was a good day at work, as well ... and my dental appointment went well.  2 fillings ... what really frustrated me was that the bigger of the 2 (and the dentist is concerned about the future of the tooth) is a repair of my previous filling done by my last dentist.  My new dentist has had to do 2 large fillings ... both of which were repairs from the previous dentist, so although my new dentist is more expensive she both takes the time to listen to my worries, as well as explain what is going on.

I really want to catch up with you all ... but I also need to get some icons made.  Really I must ask father Christmas if he can give me an extra few days per month!

So, here are the questions ... and for those who bother you will realise that I abandoned the weekly photos.  Yes, I was enjoying the challenge but time keeps getting away from me, so I decided that sometimes I can be sensible!








23. Do you know how to perform the ‘Heimlich manoeuvre’?
I learnt it at college in the early 8's.
However it is now "deleted" from our resussitation training.

24. Have you ever seen a comet in the sky?
Back in the 80's ... Halley's Comet. However as I was living in London at the time, the light pollution didn't make for a good view.




Right, let's get on

I’m glad you are getting the teeth cared for properly; I would be furious about the previous dentist. Good luck with the boiler. Would a heat pump be an option for you? I wish I could have replaced mine with a heat pump but the technology wasn’t quite ready when mine needed replacement a few years ago.

I am really annoyed about the dentist - but I suppose it also proves that I was right to walk away from her treatment.

Hadn't thought about heat pump ... don't know that they are around here much. I have yet to look at quotes, although I suppose I need to get organised seeing how the weather is going now!

Wonderful. :)

I saw Halley's Comet too, in the high desert of southern California. It was a good view, but a chilly one! The high desert gets cold in winter. I hope to be here in 2061 (age 105) to see it again. :)

Oh ... 2061, I shall just be a baby at 100!! So I can celebrate by seeing the comet, as well as getting my birthday card from The King!!

Sometimes there's never enough time. I hope the boiler isn't too expensive.

Nope, I don't know it. Yes, a few comets although I think they were merely falling stars.

It's gotten cooler here but still warm during the day ar 75 to 80 degrees and I can definitely feel the chill in the air at night.

It's frustrating that it's cool as it's the weekend (we had lovely weather yesterday)

Dentists ... I had one tell me everything was fine, then a couple of months later, my middle front tooth dropped a couple of millimetres. I changed dentists and had to have a brace for nearly a year.

It's frustrating ... you pay the money, and believe what they are telling you!!!!
