I'm procrastinating for a few. I have a mound of policies and procedures to write for work. We got a hefty shakedown on Tuesday. We have to re-do a whole bunch policy contracts that impact a massive affordable housing expansion plan we have starting in a few months. Pretty much the rest of my directing team is on vacation. So I'm doing my best to have drafts to present on Monday for them to get going on it. I'm in over my head but am doing my best.

Waiting for the call center ppl to open up the telephone lines so I can get some Xrays of my knees and hip. Hoping to get in today before I go to my dental appt.

Thinking about the Alzheimer's that runs in my Mom's side of the family and wondering if I should schedule a memory test BECAUSE there was a beat of about five seconds tonight when I couldn't remember the boy's name.

Trying to navigate a new phone. I'm used to fingerprint recognition, but before you can assign that to your apps, first you need to remember the password (oh soo many) or recreate new ones! I can only think of soo many.


Making a list now! Lol

Oh, how I hate setting up a new phone! I don't understand why so many people replace theirs after only 18 months. Once I get mine set the way I want it, I keep that phone until something breaks, no matter how out of date it gets.

I'm sitting under my carport, drinking wine, it's about 80° and hardly any humidity. There is a beautiful Breeze coming off the ocean. I've been sitting here and listening to '80s music reminiscing. Painting away. I'm working on my yard decorations for Halloween ,Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Oh, and a duck just waddled by, how cute.

There is no storm a brewing, which means no hurricane out in the Gulf or out there coming my way. I don't want to jinx it, but we've been good so far this year. I'm going to have to say it's Another Day in Paradise.

I'm listening to Marketplace on NPR, and I'm babying my mouth. I finally got that cracked tooth extracted on Wednesday. It came out in several pieces, but it only took about 20 minutes and it wasn't too bad. They were very generous with the gas and local anesthetic. They were very nice. My only complaint was that the oral surgeon was fond of 70s elevator music; I spent the rest of the day with Todd Rundgren singing over and over in my head - and if that was my only problem, then I don't really have a problem.

I have antibiotics, pain medication, prescription toothpaste, mouth rinse (six times a day - I'm having trouble getting all those in), and liquid lidocaine for my swollen tongue left over from the thrush. I have slow melting tablets to put between my cheek and gum for dry mouth. I can't use my bite guard because my gum is so swollen it no longer fits, so I'm using a rolled up wad of gauze on the opposite side of my mouth to clench my teeth on during sleep. (I'm not really supposed to do this, but I don't want to crack any more teeth.) And, I have an ice pack to put on my swollen cheek for 20 minutes at a time.

So far today I've eaten two rice pudding cups and two croissants, and that took about two hours. So when I say I'm babying my mouth, I really do mean that's about all I have time for. I go back on Wednesday for a checkup and to get my stitches out.
