Mulling

[persis]

I have a bunch of things I want to do, but am finding it hard to concentrate these days. I know part of it it that I am finally done (sort of) with my responsibilities of Mum, and now have time to be not ON all the time, and, the weather has changed so I am feeling those effects in sinuses.

Today, I made a New Patient appointment with Tufts Dental School, as a second tooth chipped off a quarter, so now I have TWO teeth (# 30 and # 31, bottom left molars) that need crowns (but not root canals) right away. Each of them would be in the neighborhood of $1300 if I went to my regular dentist, because MA Health does not cover dental other than cleanings twice yearly and x-rays...

I also took Winnie tot eh vet to be weighed again; 50.4# today, and to get heartworm meds for the next year (there was a rebate if I bought a years supply).

I want to find time for the following, in no particular order:
dinners here with friends,
writing, several sorts: stories of Mum, cooking adventures, farming,
cooking,
sorting thru: Mums boxes, my closet, my office,
reading,
training Winnie,
knitting,
sewing,
work.

I am sure there are other things that should be on the list, but that's a start.

Actually, it is a molar, both of them are, and they are mostly silver filling... old silver filling at that. And they both chipped when I chewed on something hard, I think Sunday's was a particularly crunchy bit of English muffin.

I have had some achey jaws over the past few months, since Mum died, from which I can deduce that I have been clenching my teeth, only when I am most stressed. But thanks for thinking of that. I do have a mouth guard; it usually ends up at the bottom of the bed all tangled in sheets. :-/

Thanks for reminding me of the MENDING PILE from I don;t know where, but mine is HUGE. I think a sewing/knitting date would be great, with food and wine. Let's compare calendars soon. *hug*
