Not wanting to take any chances that we would oversleep this morning, the Alarm was set before we headed off to Bed. It was another up and down night but the result was sleeping the better part of it in Bed. It had to be the holding hands with Kathy, that relaxed us that much. It had another advantage, we were both wide awake minutes before the Alarm was set to go off.
With more than one appointment set for today, timing would be everything. With a later Dentist Appointment, we were cautious on eating anything that would lodge in our teeth. Breakfast was Breakfast Snack Bars and Yogurt Cups, with our Coffees at our Computers.
After checking The Weather Network and noting that temperature would become comfortable, I changed my attention to a Questionnaire. Of course, the sign-in program instituted a Secondary Verification and then insisted that I change my Password. (This has happened before.) Once in the program, it then insisted that I make my next appointment in May, before letting me complete my Questionnaire, for today. (Note: I often make those appointments at the Clinic itself.)
That finished, I had just enough time to wash up, get dressed, then head out the door. As forecasted, it was slightly cool, but the afternoon would be comfortable.
We
were lucky there were no Construction
Slowdowns
on
the route we took and managed to arrive at the Canadian
Blood Services
with time to spare. Unfortunately, Kathy decided to stay in the Car
to
read rather than sitting in the lounge, where we could wave or signal
one another. They were able to take me earlier than scheduled,
meaning we would have more time before our next appointment.
I left the building feeling good about my 162nd Donation, to find Kathy just sitting in the Car. The moment I opened the car door she started screaming at me, that I made her miss her Dentist Appointment and she was having Pain on that side of her mouth. (The Appointment was mine, but she had wanted to consult with our Dentist. That was also the first time that she mentioned Pain in her mouth.)
Though I showed her the Appointment Book, she said it was wrong. The first half of our ride out to Amherstburg was very quiet. I do not ignore her needs and will put them before my own. To say I felt crushed would be an understatement. (I know what you mean Jan. I believe when she is alone, that her mind slips to dark spots. It started when I returned to work.)
Getting
in town early for our Dental
Appointments,
I thought hunger may have had something to do with what just happen.
Not wanting anything to get stuck in our teeth, we went to Wendy’s
to have a Frosty
as a snack. It
helped! After
arriving at the Rivertowne
Dental Office,
it was a simple act of rinsing our mouths with water and they were
clean, with no Toothbrushes
required.
I
knew that I was starting to have a Cavity
caused by the clamp from my Partial
Plate.
When they showed me the X-Rays,
both
sides of my Partial
Plate
were wearing into the Anchor
Teeth,
and the middle
cross
bar was gouging into the rest of my teeth. Sean could not believe
that I sat there as he rebuilt all
my
teeth for over
an
Hour,
without any Freezing
and
no Pain.
All that time Kathy was in the Waiting Room talking to other patients, wondering what was happening to me. When they did her X-Rays, she said her teeth were just uncomfortable. For now, she is good but if something comes up, we’ll go back.
Back to Wendy’s, this time we had Chicken Nuggets to see us through until supper.
We made a short stop at our son Kevin’s so I could get some information from him. With rising costs, everywhere we turn, he gave me an idea of how to solve part of our problem.
By the time we got back to Windsor, we were in the middle of Rush-Hour. We swung by Guardian Storage to collect our Mail. Three pieces of Junk Mail and one sheet of Coupons from Wendy’s.
It has been a couple of weeks since we put Gasoline in the Car, but today we had no choice but to stop at the Pioneer gas station to do just that. Since we use their points card, we saved Seven Cents a Litre (.25 US Gallon) today.
For the third time in one day, we ate at a Wendy’s using one of our newly attained Coupons. We had Chicken Sandwiches, before heading for home.
The “6 o’clock Local News” was just starting when we walked in. The temperature reached 52 F (11 C) but we will still see the Roller Coaster that we call Spring. Also, the price of Oil dropped quite a bit.
We later watched a few episodes of “Mayday” before calling it a night.
Tomorrow will be slower, but we still have to go out.

B54e Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.
