Daily Update, June 20, 2024

    On Thursday, right after breakfast, I had a video counselling session. We're doing more, between me being in a rough patch in life, and her going on a trip soon. We had a good session. We focused on my health difficulties, since some big things are coming up in that area, like my trip in the afternoon. {smile}

   I contacted Uber a while after lunch, and a fellow came and took me to my endodontist. He wondered if my back tooth is worth saving. He also wondered if it needs a root canal. Then he started work on both teeth. He worked to a point, then told me to call my dentist on Monday, when he's back in the office, to get him to "take the crowns off and see if either tooth can be saved." Something tells me they're worse than they first looked, especially the back one Anyway, I contacted Uber, and they took me back home. I notice I've been feeling better since I got this done. I don't know how much is just not have two entire root canals looming, and how much is getting some of that decay out of my mouth. {Smile}

   I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before that. She was resting when I went in. Mo had only one eye open at first; the second eye opened sometime during the baby pictures. I started my reading with scripture and thoughts about it first. then I continued her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2023. After that, I started the _The 40 Cutest Babies in the World_. I think I read the first half of it. She kept looking like she wanted to see more babies, so I kept going. Next, I read a story and two poems from _365 Animal Stories and Rhymes_. I finished with the 20th of June's poem, "The Bee's Song," from _366 Stories for Bedtime_. {Smile}

   I didn't even try to exercise the day I got two teeth worked on, one of them with a really big cavity in it. {smile}

   After counselling, I played Cross Stitch World and started writing up Wednesday's daily update. Then I took a break for lunch with Mom. Afterwards, I finished writing up that daily update. Then I read some comics and got ready to go out. After the endodontist, I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I found Dennis, who was playing with his friend. I said hi and joined them. After a while, Pierogies joined us, too. Then Dennis's friend left for bed. I squeezed in a high-level individual mission before leaving to read to Mom, myself. {Smile}

   After dinner, I read comics and began writing this up. Then I hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming. Few I know were on, but I spotted a group running missions, and joined them. I also chatted with Nox on the chat server. That group broke up after several missions. Then I did some paperwork, and watched some videos before I made notes in this to write from the next day. {Smile}
