My Dentist Appointment

/ Paul / Leave a comment

I had a dentist appointment today to get some new front teeth. When I was 8 I knocked out my front teeth in a monkey bar accident. After a series of treatments over the years, I finally got a bridge in 2002. But today it was time to get a new bridge and cover more teeth. In the picture below you can see the temporary bridge they put in. In a few weeks I’ll get the permanent bridge installed. I think these look pretty good and feel pretty good so I’m optimistic that the final look will be just about perfect. I’ll probably have these for a longer amount of time than the first bridge.

I walked a total of 2.37 miles today.

Apple announced new iPhones today!! Say hello to the iPhone Xs and the iPhone Xs Max. They have amazing new processors, better cameras, stereo speakers and recording and the new iOS 12. Even though I got the iPhone 8 Plus last year, I’m going to get up early on Friday and order the iPhone Xs Max. If you order early on Friday, they’ll arrive on the 21st. I can’t wait! You know what an Apple Fan Boy I am so I can’t let a year go by and not get the new phone. I’m so excited!!

Dentist Appointment

This morning I took my dad to his dentist appointment. After an hour and a half of talking about options for taking care of his rotting teeth, we decided he would have some work done, fix some teeth and the partial he already has instead of having all his teeth pulled and getting dentures. He wasn’t too happy I think but it’s the best, most affordable option for his teeth. I hope he goes with that option. I may be traveling back in the future to take him to get this work done. Take care of your teeth when you’re young!!

I walked a total of 2.01 miles today.

Visiting Dad

Today I drove to Charlottesville to visit my dad. He’s 87. He is showing his age a lot these days. Tomorrow morning I’ll be taking him to a dentist appointment. I came a day early to visit with him and be here to take him early tomorrow morning. It was good catching up with him. He’s in independent care but he really needs to be in assisted care. I hope he moves to that level of care soon.

I walked a total of 1.49 miles with the exercise app on the watch.

Halloween Candy

Today we went grocery shopping. We were excited to see all the halloween candy out for sale at the grocery store. We bought some candy corn. I’m sure we’ll by other things later but it was fun seeing the candy.

I walked 1.50 miles on the exercise app.
