Thursday 13
It's still Thursday so I'll take advantage of the magic 13 while I still can. Here goes, 13 great things I did today:
- Galoot took the kids to school and I got to take a shower, un-rushed and uninterrupted for the first time in a long time. It was heavenly.
- Left work at 11:00 a.m. for a dentist appointment. I decided by 11:01 that I wasn't going back.
- Everything at the dentist went well - umm sorta... She kept poking at one of my molars saying, "Does this hurt? Do you have symptoms with this tooth?" (She's Eastern European) I kept saying, "No, doesn't hurt at all." (or at least I tried to say that while her fingers where still in my mouth - why do they do that?) By the end of the session she decided to x-ray it for whatever reason, which I later learned might not be covered by my insurance. Great.
- After the dentist, Galoot and I had lunch at the local pub. (It was his first day at his new job!)
- After lunch we went back to Galoot's office. His predecessor was disorganized and left EVERYTHING behind. I helped him organize for about an hour.
- Galoot was very tolerant of my overbearing need to control the neatness of his office (I believe he uttered the phrase "you're meddling" more than once...)
- Having a few free hours I decided to make good on a promise I made in a comment to Princess. I took a garbage bag, walked around the house and decluttered. I feel better.
- I also got to vacuum the toy room, a feat in itself.
- I fixed Galoot's watch band (I'm kinda handy like that).
- I headed to the post office where I mailed Tom's birthday present (late) and fathers' day cards (almost late, I sent 2 day priority).
- After I picked up the kids, Galoot Jr. and I took the dog for a walk around the block while big Galoot made dinner.
- We had breakfast dinner which consisted of scrambled eggs, sausage and toasted bagels with cream cheese and tomato slices. Galoot's an awesome cook.
- Galoot cleaned up the kitchen while I gave the kids a bath. The perfect end to a perfect day!
What a fun day! And I LOVE breakfast for dinner.
Sounds like Thursday was good for you!

Sounds good... except for the dentist! Sometime I will have to write about my most traumatic dentist visit ever; it involves biker shorts. Why do they always ask questions why they have fingers in your mouth?!

Sounds like you had a swell day - Bravo! Isn't it nice to play hooky once in a while? Especially when you get to do things that you normally rush to do. But on "hooky" afternoon, one should do something else besides organising, don't you think!? We will need to adress that, missus! ;-D

Flybunny - it was yummy - next time we'll invite you too!
-R- Biker shorts? I can't wait to hear this one...
Stinky - I realize I have control issues. I probably should've just gone home, kicked up my feet and had a beer. Maybe tonight...

The hygienist at the dentist I went to growing up was my Dad's bosses wife, so she knew me, and would try to carry on entire conversations with me while cleaning my teeth.
