Good evening, all.
I had some good plans for today. A dentist appointment set me back a few more hours than I expected. Some rain put a damper on this afternoon, so I came up with some indoor alternatives. A nap to make up for some lost rest.
Normally I don’t spend long periods away from the computer and posting but we all have our lulls. I’m feeling at peace this evening.
I can hear the sound of water lapping the shore. Because I have that recording in my memory banks for days like today where I won’t be anywhere near the beach.
Mondays used to have a lot more significance and meaning to me. As well as a disdain at times. It was the start of the workweek which doesn’t affect me anymore. The daily commute resumed and again that isn’t a factor. Answering to someone else, or multiple people.
The beginning of the week starts slowly now. Even though I rose today at 2am, it’s been a smooth pace of playing with my various hobbies this morning and getting some exercise in. The dentist and a meeting this afternoon with my daughter plus lunch have dominated the day. Good thing I got one post off this morning.
Let’s see what we can do with the evening. I feel ambitious now and might stay up for a while and work.

You must take better care of your teeth. Oral health is connected to overall health.

I agree and my teeth have been pretty good up until this past year or two. I just got my first crown recently, so I feel like royalty now.

Total agreement on that last thought,
