been having a lot of trouble with a very loose lower tooth and little did I
know, when I got in the chair, he was ready to take it out but I wasn't!! I have
never had a problem with going to dentist but when he started talking about
numbing the area, extracting and replacing the tooth I stared to panic!! I told
him I would need time to get myself ready psychologically for the whole thing!
That is/was so weird from me that I still don't comprehend it and can only blame
it on the operation and just another reaction..
When I was finished I went to Allen's place and we
went for lunch at Cheddar's which is a chain with excellent food, a great
ambiance, good prices and usually (but
not this time) good service.


We both had the grilled salmon on rice and peas platter plus two sides--Allen
being a 'good' boy had broccoli and carrots while I had cole slaw and French
Fries!


After that we went to see "The Reader"--see my
next blog for review--and then I came
home. The birds weren't happy not being let out of their cages until after 7
but they got over it!
Last, but certainly not least, just by giving up desserts since Christmas Day
I have lost 3.75 pounds--I am down to 192 on my way to 184!
