Winning Lottery Ticket Needed
Tue Jun 15 2004

#1 & #2 had their monthly orthodontist appointment this morning. Last month X-rays had been taken on #1 to see what his MIA canine was doing. As it turns out, it’s doing nothing. I had hoped we would get lucky with #1 like we did with #2 and it would shift into place once the teeth started moving. No such luck.

Unfortunately this means #1 is going to need oral surgery to expose the tooth and incorporate it into the braces to move it into place.

Have I mentioned before how much our dental insurance SUCKS? Just in case I haven’t, our dental insurance SUCKS.

Well, I can console myself in that they will at least cover some of it.

To focus on something besides dollar signs hovering over the horizon, I’ve been puttering around the garden. My first clematis, Niobe, has graced us with a solitary blossom. A couple of my others are getting leggy, but no signs of blossoms yet. I need to weed one patch, I’ll likely do that later after I’ve surfed the web for a while.

    My Niobe took forever to grow but it would bloom its little heart out. I miss the little guy.

    Pictures please, of the flowers, not the tooth. ;o) You could always put the yard sale earnings to work for you. I'm sure that will help - you could get a lot of lottery tickets with it.

    RYC: Ah, but I envy you your clouds and showers and cooler temperatures and verdant fields...

    Courage!

    The berries will ripen, after mine have long since disappeared....
