I’m hoping the first full week of 2016 is not an indication of how my upcoming year is going to play out. The root canal I had six months ago (a second attempt to get at the root of the problem, pun intended) is now going south, again! Just when I thought there was nothing worse than losing luggage, I’m suddenly looking at losing a tooth.
Holy oral surgery, doc! Tell me it ain’t so.
And then there’s my nose, as in a stuffy, sneezy, snotty, sorry snout causing achy, itchy, watery eyes, sinus pressure, and a scratchy, phlegmy, coughy, sore throat. Yes, I could have simply shared I have a cold, but that four-letter word doesn’t begin to scratch the surface when it comes to my suffering. My daughter, an authority on the subject after all five family members battled the same virus, warned me a minimum of two weeks was required for the misery to run its course. Wonderful. NOT!
All that being said, it should come as no surprise that Jimmy and I have delayed our annual trip to the Sunshine state where sand rather than snow is the order of the day. With my father already ailing, no way am I going to be the bearer of a bad bug that could literally spell the end of the line for a frail and lonely nonagenarian looking to harbor a few snowbirds.
But hey, things are looking up. I bought a Powerball ticket yesterday. Wait, I bought the winning Powerball ticket. I’m feeling lucky! Yes, 2016 is going to be my year! I can feel it in my bones. My bones are in much better shape than my teeth. Besides, for $700,000,000 I can buy an entire set of new teeth. Talk about million dollar smiles.
It’s Fun Foto Friday with smiles guaranteed all around. Enjoy!
