Blogless
I've been blogless. What happens to the days? For my own sake, I'll try to catch up. My last post was Monday, May 26, so...
Tuesday, May 27
Richard and I drove to Lakeland to have my new dentures "adjusted." I had little hope. They were so bad I could not even put them in my mouth and I had not exactly gotten off on a good foot with the doctor and his staff because the first set he made was off center and the bite could not be resolved, hence a remake.
I had had a pleasant phone visit with one of the staff when I called for my appointment. We talked about Tia's trip from Japan, the assistant's native country. It turned out she was the girl I had frightened on an earlier visit when I held her shoulders and said, "I need you to hear me on this!" as I tried to explain why the previous teeth needed remade. She decided I wasn't so scary after all. And the teeth were made semi comfortable.
We then drove on over to Tampa to celebrate at my favorite buffet, Fresh Harvest. It was my first solid meal in some time.
And my day was like this...
Our Bible Study class was small this time, but we had a good, in-depth discussion. I learn so much from each one of those dear people! I recall almost nothing of the day except we went to Small Group in the evening and it was a very good lesson.
And my day was like this...
I drove back to Lakeland for another adjustment on my new dentures. They are wearable, just having some sore spots. I have hope that they will be okay. In the evening we worked on finishing a grant nomination for a teacher we know. I managed to print it out on the special paper she gave us, but I got it upside down and the guidebox was still there... of course it was the last sheet I had!
I didn't even use http://twitter.com to make any mini-entries all day.
Finally, we come to today, Friday, May 30
I went to Office Depot (we have a new store just up the street!) and got school motif paper, came home and produced the document, called to announce it to the school and took the papers to Disney... all on the final day! Then I finished a very good spy thriller, did paper work (we generate more paperwork than a medium sized insurance company) and generally had a good day.
We just learned that my ex sister in law died last night. She was the birth mother of our oldest son. I have often prayed for her but have not had personal contact with her in many years. I don't think she was comfortable with the idea. My heart is sad over her death. Life was not always kind to her. She was only one year older than I.

- 18:33 Back from Lakeland & Tampa. New teeth working great!
- 20:40 Had a nice nap. I'm really good at napping.

- 22:18 Playing Backgammon with Richard. We're pretty evenly matched. Makes it fun.

And my day was like this...
- 09:38 Out of paper. Off to get specially printed kind for grant bid because, even after triple checking, I printed upside down and left a box in.
- 11:01 I have blood all over my face! I smeared it there while thinking. I have cut my finger, I know not when or how. No pain, just blood. Messy.
- 13:49 "Minnie Grant" finished & delivered. Now for Lunch with the Lord.
- 15:06 Playing games before sorting paperwork. I won't be a dull one like Jack who had all work & no play.
