Went to the dentist today for a normal check up. Everything was fine, thank goodness. Going to the dentist is a white knuckle affair for me event today. My childhood experiences with a dentist were all very painful. I remember him telling me “This won’t hurt if you understand the difference in pressure and pain.” What a liar! It hurt!
Dentistry today is much better though. And although I don’t really like going, I think it important to be in good shape physically, emotionally, and spiritually for the days that may be ahead of us.
The friend that borrowed the truck and cattle trailer to move hay today returned it this evening. It’s good to have like-minded friends who are also following a path of self-sufficiency and preparedness.
Got an early day tomorrow. Turning in. Night all.
