It seems a little odd to blog about lunch but it's 15 minutes until then and it's all I can think about! The bank next door to us is having a hamburger/hot dog cookout in their parking lot as a benefit for our local Relay for Life. I convinced our office manager that it would be a good idea for the firm to buy our lunch today. There's only 2 of us here and it's for a good cause. Besides, I would have to go to the ATM for lunch money. It wasn't a hard sell. Update: It is now after lunch and it was just as good as I imagined. Fast, friendly service from my buddies at the bank, and for a cause I support. Now if I could just stop eating these cookies...
I changed dental floss today and I'm not a happy camper. Keeping with the odd theme today, let's talk about flossing. I do think it's appropriate to state that I have not always been a flosser. I was a "10 minutes before you go to the dentist" kind of flosser so when he asked me if I flossed, I could honestly say "occasionally." My daughter got some Oral-B Pro-Health For Me Floss Picks in her stocking at Christmas. Santa was hoping to start good habits with the kids but she was only an occasional user. A few weeks ago, I took her floss picks from the cabinet and decided that I would do something small to improve myself, like it or not. So I stuck the bag beside my makeup and hoped that I would remember to use them. The first morning I had some extra time, I flossed my teeth. And liked it. In fact, I liked it more than one should like flossing. I felt empowered (I told you this was an odd day), like I was taking control of my teeth. It felt great. So every morning I have been flossing my teeth before I put on my makeup and yesterday, I ran out of floss picks. I stopped by my local store and they did not have the Oral-B For Me that I had been using. I grabbed another brand because I needed something. I was disappointed when the floss on the picks wasn't thick enough to survive my whole mouth. My teeth are pretty tightly spaced and I've never had a problem with the Oral-B For Me picks shredding before the job was done. Needless to say, I will have to go to another town shortly to find my favorite flossers, and until then, my routine will be a little out of sorts and I may be grumpy. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. *Disclaimer: The opinions are my own. I haven't received anything from Oral-B in return for this review. The original flossers came from Santa.*
I still miss my Hamlet :( He's been gone a week now. I do get to see a replica of his face in his puppy Bandit and his little Lady has his big brown eyes and temperament. I don't feel like he's completely gone from my life but I do miss kissing his nose and him staring at me with complete adoration. He will always be in my heart.
