Even now, they are very good about letting me come in when I feel like it, but I feel guilty to call in and ask to work from home too many times. So, I drag myself off to the office. Once I am there, I am fine; it's the getting myself there that is a problem!<br /><br />Yes, the tugging of the unsnipped stitch was a bit of a rude shock! I felt a bit of discomfort today, too, but took some Tylenol and it's all better now. :)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-47469489678149278142017-07-14T22:01:19.657-07:002017-07-14T22:01:19.657-07:00Suzanne, it did sting a bit!

I think I...I think it was wishful thinking, Sandy. I think I just wanted to turn over and go back to sleep, and not have to heed the alarm clock!<br /><br />I, too, sometimes write down the day of the week and my medications when I take them, especially when I have a new medication, like an antibiotic or anti-nausea meds, in addition to the regular meds. <br /><br />Like you, I am a pen and paper person, not an electronic devise person. I am pretty useless when it comes to using my gadgets, like the cell phone. I was at the grocery store, one day, trying to do mental arithmetic to add up what was in my cart, and my daughter was doubling up with laughter as she told me I have a calculator on my phone! Oh! My excuse was, I had to put on my glasses to be able to read my phone screen and enter the numbers, etc.; rounding off and mentally adding as I went was faster! :DBlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-89754656939297124702017-07-14T20:44:31.259-07:002017-07-14T20:44:31.259-07:00Almond croissants are definitely my favorites.

But I dropped the container of fish curry when I went to get it out of the fridge, in the morning, and the cover came off; after cleaning the curry gravy off the bottom of the fridge and the floor, I really didn't feel like serving up what remained for my lunch (I had it with lentils and pita bread for my dinner, instead). So, I bought lunch! But I need to be more moderate about eating out, the rest of this month (after I go out with my friend, over the weekend, to celebrate her birthday!)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-72994257401680744222017-07-14T20:36:46.026-07:002017-07-14T20:36:46.026-07:00Ha, ha, I was about to eat it when I remembered I ...Ha, ha, I was about to eat it when I remembered I had to take a picture of it for you! You are right - I wouldn't have been able to get the croissant if I hadn't gone to the office! Or had the nice French gentleman bow over my hand and call me "Madame"! And his Caribbean assistant call me "Boss"!

Even more frustrating when you mistakenly think you have a day off work.<br />The thought of your dentist tugging on the un-snipped stitch makes me feel a bit queasy. I'm just glad for you that it didn't bleed for long.

What a stupid thing to do. Not as though there were hundreds of the things either! He's determined to do that bone graft isn't he lol. <br /><br />Your almond croissant looks delicious. I've just made an apple upside down type of cake for Amy and added some almond essence to the sponge mixture - I love it. xxEveryday life at Number 38https://www.blogger.com/profile/12945846951398052455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-82684823975328405022017-07-14T11:12:28.684-07:002017-07-14T11:12:28.684-07:00Excellent progress with your pulled tooth but the ...Excellent progress with your pulled tooth but the technician gets a black mark for not being more careful. I hope you got an apology. That would be unacceptable at the dentist I go to.<br /><br />Well done for taking care of you at the Farmer's market.<br /><br />Can't say I ever woke up thinking a week day was a Saturday when I was working but then I am a morning person and at my best. Now you will think this is hilarious but I always take my BP medicine as soon as I get up and I keep a sheet of paper next to the bottles and I write down the day and the date with two (2) check (ticks) marks. This way when on the odd occasion I have not followed my routine and think did I take my Rx I can easily check and it does help with keeping track of the current day and date in my mind. Although like my son says "date is on your phone, computer etc." so true but I do it anyway.

You spoil me :) It looks very delicious and I'm salivating. It's funny how we post pictures of food for each other, LOL.<br /><br />I'm glad your jaw is healing nicely!<br /><br />I don't have a job outside of the house but yes, I have woken up at times thinking it was a certain day but it was another and then I felt off-kilter all day. It always happens to me when a holiday falls on a Monday. I'm sorry you were disappointed you had to go to work! But you wouldn't have had the lovely croissant if you hadn't so it all balances out, doesn't it? Have a great weekend!Nathaliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01654610295436446555noreply@blogger.com
