Dentist

I have all but finalized the quotes for the concreting job and the removal of the garden on the back side of the pool.  The concreter and I have spoken, confirmed the cash price and tentatively set a date for after our return from Melbourne, mid September.  I may even get the palm tree guy removal guy in before we head away and get that job done early next week.  We are due to fly to Melbourne for 17 days next Thursday around lunchtime.

We fly out of the Sunshine Coast around 12:30 and are due at Tullamarine around 3 pm.

A couple of teeth problems prompted me to head to the dentist.  I have had 2 x 1hr appointments Monday and Tuesday and popped back in this morning to have a little more removed from the last filling.  Thank heavens for Health Insurance!  Trish even managed to ring Monday morning and upgrade our plan for another $2 per month and our rebates were up by around $150.

Two trips to the dentist, rebuild a broken tooth, make a few changes to another one and redo a partially lost filling and the total was $1000+.

Today we are looking at 24 degrees as a top temperature.  Minimums are now usually in double figures and we may even get to 27 later in the week.

We have not had a drop of rain for almost 5 weeks.  The lawns are drying off and the pool requires a top up again.  We may get a storm or showers on Friday!
