Easter Monday 2019

Martha posted this meme on her blog the other day, I thought it was funny!

Hope you are having a Happy Easter weekend.  Good Friday was a holiday here, and I believe most businesses are back to normal today.  Schools are closed, as are the government offices and there is no mail delivery today.

I had my second followup appointment for my dental implant last week, a nice young nurse removed my stitches and the doctor said I should come back in a month for another checkup.

This is the time of year when we change the snow tires on our cars back to regular tires and our car licence plates need to be renewed for another year.  The income tax deadline approaches.

Dental Implant Surgery

I had my dental implant surgery on the 4th.  It went well, lasting about an hour.  The dental surgeon did an excellent job to this point.  He allayed my fears just before the surgery, telling me the most pain would be getting the needle for the anaesthetic.  He also said there would be some hammering towards the end, which there was.  That was a strange experience.  My jaw was swollen but I didn't need any painkillers for the next few days.  I was able to eat soft foods the first day and started to feel more normal by the next day.  I have had a follow-up checkup since with another next week.  Hopefully all the stitches can come out then.   There are a couple more steps but I should be done the process by the end of the year all things going well.
