“Remoted” Workday 223 / Day 340 (Friday)

It’s snowing. Again. Still. All day, steadily, but with less accumulation than would be expected from an all-day snowfall. At least it’s the fluffy stuff, easy to push, rearrange, and relocate. It covers up the old dog pee snow banks and ice chunks and makes everything look fresh again.

My loves.

A random toothache struck from out of nowhere this morning. It’s possible it’s a result of all the jaw clenching, and even with the night guard there is still pressure between the teeth even though it’s not the grinding of tooth surfaces. It was butternut squash bisque for lunch, which was quite yummy and chosen because it was fast to heat up, not because the toothache, which was mild at lunchtime. By supper, the toothache was worse and it was discovered that chewing is painful. The toothache has spread to become a headache. Luckily, there was already a routine dental appointment scheduled for the morning, which was set up months ago. If there has to be a dental issue, the best time for it to occur is the day before an appointment. 

The Canine Overlords have been their adorable selves. Winston’s new cute thing is to stand on his hind legs and put his paws on my leg while I am working. Usually, he just wants my cookie dispensing services, but for a brief moment I can pretend he wants to be near me.  As for Moose, his limp has improved with his medications, but the radiologist wasn’t able to determine anything definitive from the x-ray taken last week. Of course, more x-rays can be done of both legs for comparison. Cha-ching!
