Not quite finished
Not finished with dental work, that is. I still need a cleaning, and that has been scheduled for May 15. It's probably what I dread most, all that scraping just drives me crazy but it needs to be done.The dentist called me yesterday to see how I was doing, and asked me to call the office today to let them know. I did have a lot of discomfort at the sites where the pain killer was injected - it still is a little sore - but nothing I couldn't endure and I got a good night's sleep. Since I will be taking pain meds after next week's surgery I didn't want to deal with them for this pain, and I can't take any kind of aspirin because of the surgery. I will just tough it out!I had a problem with my tv starting last night - I figured I hit one of the buttons on the remote by accident, but the more I tried to fix it the worse it became. I had this same problem shortly after the U-Verse was hooked up. This morning I called the installer who was gracious enough to give me his phone number in case of problems like this, and within about a half a minute he told me how to correct the problem. That is so much easier and quicker than having to go through normal channels with a service provider. For that reason alone I like AT&T much better than I liked DirecTV, but I don't care for the remotes of either one. There are too many buttons and most of them are for selections I will never make. I just want to click ON, find the channel I want, and click OFF when I'm finished. I have recorded a few programs and gone back to view them, but that doesn't happen very often. I wish AT&T offered a "simple remote" for folks who aren't interested in all the extras.Does anyone else but me wonder at the conduct of the investigation of the missing airplane? I just don't believe it is where they think it is, or that it went into the water at all. Are satellites still watching the area to spot debris of a plane wreckage? If they are, it is never mentioned. I sometimes think the only reason I watch the coverage of the search is because I love hearing the Australian accents! I'm so happy to see the sun this morning, although it alternates with rain. It still isn't quite warm enough for me, but the temperature will rise steadily in the next few days.It's hard to believe the weekend is rolling around again. I don't know where the time goes, but I feel that I have to keep my eyes wide open so I don't miss anything!

Absolutely Do-nothing Day
For some reason today I haven't been motivated to do anything. I dread tomorrow when I can't eat anything, and can only drink clear liquids. To me that will mean water and cranberry juice! It wouldn't have been difficult...

Dentist Down, Surgeon To Go
Thankfully I made it through the dental work today. For some reason it took longer and more medication to numb the area, and I wonder if it's been partially due to my state of mind and emotions the past week. The dentist and his...

Haven't gotten much done today except I did watch the library DVD's on Yellowstone and the Tetons. Of the two parks there is something about the Tetons that draws me in. Yellowstone has plenty of beauty but I'm not crazy about...

Waiting
The AT&T installer was scheduled to be here between 11 and 1:00, and it's now 1pm. I just got a call from him saying he'd be here in about 20 minutes. But I didn't have anything else to do today, did I. So now he has been here...
