A Nice Day, Even Though My Ravens Lost Their Third In A Row and Some Dental Problems

oh well, there is always next Sunday. By then when I am watching my Ravens, I will say I have won with my dental work and so will my Ravens

I woke up this day, Sunday expecting pretty good happenings. I thought I would talk about encouraging everyone, seniors especially to go out and to do something exciting and new to them. I thought of Elita getting some new things happening to her.

I am going to the dentist on Tuesday and I am happy about it. Do you say, this senior is happy to go to a dentist, something must be wrong with her brain. No, I am still using my excellent brain. I have one tooth down below, and it has gotten out of line and what I would say not so good looking being somewhat crooked. One dentist told me to get braces. I said are you kidding, at age 82? She said, it can be done. I said no thanks.

My new dentist, a lovely young dentist, no, we pull out the crooked one, make a crown for it and for the next tooth next to it, another crown and some other things. It shall look gorgeous and I can now smile. I never smile when a photo is taken, I close my lips and make a closed smile. Closed smiles do not make you look good, just focuses on the crooked one and calls more attention to it.

So goodbye on Tuesday, you are gone away on at around 430 and with the resulting dental work, I shall look lovely, because a nice and pretty tooth will replace the ugly one and I shall feel exhilarated and happy and I can smile again. Maybe I will model for a dental company and show before and after pictures Maybe I will make a toothpaste ad to show how that even at 82, one can look great and one can feel they look prettier and also feel good when she looks in the mirror

With a little bit of pain, it will all be worth it.
