Holly cleaned my teeth and the dentist confirmed a cavity in my back right upper molar. In fact, it’s so big it needs to be crowned… ugh. Fortunately, our dental plan covers 80%, so between that and the time-release fluoride varnish that was put on my teeth, it only came to around $200. 

The dentist got a kick out of my latest wins since I started sweeping again. She loves those winning updates. 

The new office assistant sold me on one of those ultrasonic essential oil diffusers. She had peppermint oil in the one she had running on her desk. You just add water to it and a stream of scented mist puffs up. The one I ordered has a color-changing LED light in it. It seems like it may do as good a job as incense does of smelling the place up because it continually puts the scent out into the room. Only this shouldn’t leave the messy residue that smoke can leave. With the wax warmers, the scent isn’t “moving,” and after I first change the wax cubes, I no longer really notice the smell. This thing might be easier to clean than the warmers, too. So I ordered a $20 diffuser and a set of 20 oils. 

Last night I dreamed we lived somewhere with a huge and long room running alongside the place. It had giant glass windows along the exterior wall, and as I walked down the room I saw Tom scrubbing one of the windows. He grinned at me excitedly, as if he’d just discovered the joy of wiping down windows. A huge fan with fat blades was hanging above by the window. 

Then we were on a ship where many people were dressed in costumes with a Christmas theme. One of them tumbled down a ramp and into the water. This seemed to be a fun game for some of them which I assumed were able to get right back onto the ship. 

In another dream, I was helping Bob with some kind of project, though I don’t know what, and was both inside and outside his house. Virginia was out somewhere. I passed Jim on the way back to our place.
