Houses and Dentists!

Hello everyone,

The weather has been lovely again today, warm and sunny but not too hot. I just hope it lasts after the dreadful summer we`ve had up till two weeks ago. Things at work have settled down a little as it has been agreed that I job share with my colleague instead of changing jobs completely. I`m not one to complain usually but I had to say how I felt this time and hopefully it will work out for the best. I expect I`ll be outside tomorrow weeding for the time I`m there, a job I don`t mind doing at all, especially in the sunshine.

 

                        

This afternoon it was back to the dentist as my mouth is still painful. It turns out that the bone and gum are still infected and I was given another course of strong antibiotics. Also I was told that my jaw is very arthritic, something I didn`t know beforehand. Apparently the jaw is used more than any other joint in the body and is a common site of arthritis...now you know! Anyway, I hope the pills do the trick because it`s very annoying having to keep going back to the dentist and besides, it`s costing me a fortune.

 

                         

Kerry and Slava`s house purchase is now in the hands of a solicitor and they have been told it will take between 6 to 14 weeks to complete. Most likely it`ll be nearer the 6 as there is nothing that should slow up the proceedure. Talking of houses Jim and I are having our roof lining paper replaced and the builders will be in on Wednesday to put up the scaffolding. We were told by the surveyor when we bought the house it needed doing but we`ve been putting it off because of the cost. It to be done because when we put our house up for sale we could lose a lot of money if we don`t have the work done. I know we won`t be moving for a few years yet but they were recommended by a friend so we decided to go ahead now.

                        

I still have a bit of a cold, not that it was much of one in the first place. Kerry, Roman and Jim all had really heavy colds so when my throat started to feel scratchy and my glands swelled up, I thought I was in for the same thing. But I haven`t had anything near as bad with just slightly watery eyes and a bit of a sniffle and I don`t think it`s going to get worse either. One thing I have gained in working at the garden centre in the countryside is that my immune system is much better than when I worked at Royal Mail in the middle of town. Since I started the job last October I`ve had no time off sick at all. I have had colds and viruses but nothing that would prevent me from working as yet. I always take 50+ multi-vitamins and zinc tablets for cold prevention so maybe that`s whats doing it. Whatever is responsible long may it last and hopefully I`ll go through another winter in good health (fingers crossed...lol!)
