Cute LOL!
I have to find a dentist to fix my tooth. My usual dentist is away for 2 weeks, and I really want one that does sedation dentistry. I think I have a good lead on one and will call when they open.
I hate, hate, hate having to do this.
**Rosie** - I’m sorry I didn’t call you- ☹ Last minute trip and very busy one. Wasn’t even thinking!

I am making the announcement, but I will not be the middle man. Caveat emptor.

older/smaller ones don’t - new construction usually does, around here anyway. Email me - what towns did you look in?

Cute LOL, **rosie**. (I recognize the pic, too…)
Good morning! Almost ready to be off to work. Off half of tomorrow, so there’s that.
Hugs.

Actually I might well have been up before the lot of you, since it’s already afternoon over here…but I didn’t like to presume on someone else’s OP, 'cos I’m polite that way!
And I’ve got nuthin’ apart from the usual Monday blurfage.

Still up, insomnia strikes again. I did a major buttload of work on the deck yesterday with #3 daughter’s help, and today we tackle the front flower beds and containers. My ground is such heavy clay that I will be doing some big containers with roses and a few peonies, and I need to amend the soil in the three beds. It was officially 72°F here today, and while I was very warm, I was comfortable. Perhaps I am acclimating, or the peri-menopause hormones are leaving me alone.
Ima go lie down now to sleep, perchance to dream? :rolleyes: Or, back to tossing and turning. Happy Monday my invisible friends!

It may be Monday, but at least I have dinner planned. Seems crazy with outside temps at 95 or so, but dinner will be pot roast.

I did indeed LOL. 😃
Speaking of the shuttle launch, I managed to get Squirrel AGM to hold down the fort while Big Boss, the Kitchen Guys, the Sysco Delivery Guy and I watched the liftoff. The mood in the room was “Lookit how fast it’s going!” :eek:😃 I wanted to see the last launch since my first memory of a Big News Event was the Challenger explosion.
I have set a goal of having a major thinkin’ and plannin’ session this week on how I want to proceed with my life in the short and long term. I feel myself getting stuck in a rut and I’m not cool with that. I don’t want to wake up in ten years and say, “WTH did I do with my life?”

Hope Dentisting goes well, **Soapy!**
Blurf. I hate housework, and I got craploads of it to do!
Oh and hello, all. Been a minute!

BIG, fast moving storm blew thru here around 7:30 this morning. A few big trees down, couple roads closed, but no damage the homestead.
