Look Mom no Cavities!!

Well this morning I had my annual dentist appointment; this is the first time that I have gone a whole year without seeing the dentist for my six month cleanings. It had been a while since I had a full mouth x-ray so that was the first thing that I had done. After sitting through the x-rays the dental hygienist cleaned and applied the fluoride and then did the periodontal depth check; where they check how deep the gum depth is around all the teeth.

She said that my teeth looked really clean especially since it had been over a year since I had had them cleaned. Me x-rays also looked good and my periodontal depth looked pretty normal; she said that some of my teeth showed that I had teeth pulled and she knew that from my having orthodontics.

After the hygienist finished the dentist came in; this was the first time that I had seen this dentist as he replaced my normal dentist who retired at the end of last year. He said that there were a couple old fillings that are starting to show wear and we will need to keep an eye on them so that they do not deteriorate to the point where decay could set in.

The whole process took over an hour and so by the time I got home it was just a little after noon. I could tell that Kathleen had not made it downstairs yet so I went upstairs to change my clothes. When I got upstairs she decided that she probably needed to go downstairs and eat breakfast, so after I changed my clothes I went downstairs to go through the mail.

We picked up a couple apple fritters yesterday and so I had one with a fresh cup of coffee and Kathleen had a jelly donut and her fritter for breakfast. After my snack I went into my office and reconciled my credit union savings and checking accounts and checked my e-mail.

After finishing that I made myself a Boca burger on dark rye toast with melted cheddar and a dill pickle for lunch. Then I emptied the dishwasher that I had loaded up and started this morning.

Around 1430 Kathleen decided that we needed to get the flooring picked out so that we can have it installed when Stan has some time again. By the time we left the shopping area it was around 1730 so Kathleen suggested that we stop at Sherri's and have dinner there. I sounded like a pretty good idea to me as well so that is what we did.

Aaron, Tami and the girls are going to the beach for a few days so I will be going over to their place to feed the animals and check up on things for them for a few days.
