Had great time at dentist yesterday. Being one of those people who has a tremendous fear of dentist, I only go when I seem to have no choice.
The small town I grew up in had no dentist. As a matter of fact my grandmother had a gum disease but I had no idea there was a dentist involve. We brushed with Baking Soda and that was that. Honestly I saw very few people with rotten teeth, but then again there weren't very many people to see. There was one family with a lot of kids and it seemed all of them had rotten teeth. O well, before I started rambling I was going to say I am actually looking forward to my next appointment on the 12th. Can't say that I've ever said that before. I've come a long way baby.;) Did you get someone in an April Fool's joke? When I was a younger one of my favorite things to do was to play April Fool's jokes on my friends and family. Been a few years since I've done that but today I was determined to get someone. Called one of my daughters who doesn't live here. Told her I'd just won a ticket for two to China. She was so excited and really emoted, was ready to go. Then I let her have it. April Fool! What a good laugh we had. Enjoy your children whatever their ages, and children enjoy your parents whatever their ages. We only come this way once so let's build good memories together.
