Five days ago I had a tooth pulled and still feel like poop. There is a gaping hole in the back of my mouth that aches and has little spikes of stitches…… oh god…. stitches are the worst thing me. That’s what make my knees go rubbery.
Mid-January was not a good time to have a tooth pulled. Its gloomy; we’ve had no sun for weeks and very little snow which is a fluke; the snow has been missing us while storms rage around us. Its been great for driving to and from work but it’s grey and desolate looking. It’s a recipe for depression.
The sun can barely make it above a line of cedars along the south side of my house. By the time it reaches the end of the line it’s already setting. Soon however it will rise a little more each day and start hitting my couch in the afternoon. Time to pick out a puzzle. As the sun starts coming in I can position myself for optimum exposure by working on a jig-saw puzzle.
oh, boy. Something to look forward too.
Please excuse my poopy post….. it’s mid-January.

Hope you feel better soon. Loved that image of you positioning yourself just right for the sun while working on the puzzle. https://youtu.be/bgiQD56eWDk
We’re having a gloomy, rainy day here, too. I really enjoy jigsaw puzzles, and got 2 for Christmas gifts. Need to find a place to work them, though, to keep the cats off. … Hope your mouth feels better soon. 🙂
I covered a piece of plywood with some knit material and put it on a little table and my lap. Then I can keep it in the guest room when I’m not doing it. Have to use a non-slippery fabric because getting through doorways is tricky! As for the cats….. good luck with that!
Oh, that sounds like a good idea. We have an extra bedroom, but no table. I need to go over to my daughter’s house and get our card table back. haha she used it for a yard sale back in the summer! …a plywood piece would work great though. 🙂
I am not fond of dentists. Hope you feel better soon.
Thanks! I’m surprised how long this aches!
