I have the best dentist - he has tiny little hands (ive had dentists with big hairy hands in the past - yuck ! ) and he lets me have the remote to the TV while he's working on me. I have a great dental plan which covers Mr.Kool too and he needs it more than me - poor guy has so many miserable procedures because he didnt have good dental care like i did growing up.

Not looking forward to that but I'll have to pay them off slowly.

Oh cool ... a Daily Topic! ;-)
When is the last time you were at the dentist, and what did you have done? I was at the dentist yesterday afternoon and had two very old silver amalgam fillings removed and replaced with two nice white composite fillings. I have recently changed dentist's and am extremely happy with my new one. I have never had a fear of the dentist but my last dentist (of two years) always left me with residual pain, or caused more pain that I started with, and I was beginning to develop a dental phobia. Do you have a dental plan? We do and it is pretty comprehensive, though it is working on last year's pay scale, so we have to cover the couple dollars difference.
Do you have any teddy bears? I do. There is a large white one sitting on the spare room bed with a red heart which reads, 'I love you'. It actually belonged to valleydaughter. There are also a mama bear, papa bear and baby bear sitting in the lazy boy chair in the same room which I purchased because they were too cute to leave in the store. I have a small white teddy bear sitting on the rocking chair in our bedroom and a plush red bear sitting on my dresser, both gifts from valleyguy. I have two little jewel coloured bears on my computer desk given to me by valleyson. One of them has a framed picture of him in it.
If turkey was not on the menu this coming Thanksgiving, what would you like your meal to consist of? I would stick with a traditional meal, and go for ham, scalloped potatoes, mashed sweet potatoes, fresh green beans and dinner rolls.
Who is your oldest living relative? My great Aunt Mary in Ohio turned 90 last month. We are traveling to Ohio for her birthday bash the weekend following this coming one.
What is the one song that has been overplayed on the radio anytime throughout your life, but that you never tire(d) of? Cher's 'Believe'.
Name one way in which you relieve stress. Exercise
If I overheard you saying, "When will I ever learn?" what would you be talking about? Taking people at face value. I believe when people say something, they intend to follow through. I have to accept that sometimes people are just talking.
Have you started Christmas shopping yet? I have. In fact, I would say I am more than halfway done. I've also gotten a good deal of my mil's shopping done for her. I'm usually ahead of the game, but this year I'm way ahead.
What did you have for breakfast this morning? I was very bad. I had homemade apple crisp. I justified by telling myself that it is fresh apples, whole wheat flour and oatmeal. My mind quickly skipped over the sugar and butter involved! I also had a cup of coffee before and a cup afterwards.
It's a beautiful Fall day here, just a little chilly but the sun is out.
When is the last time you were at the dentist, and what did you have done? Do you have a dental plan? I do have a dental plan. I was there on Monday for a check-up as I wear Invisalign braces.
Do you have any teddy bears? I have a few. One is a Christmas bear and then I have FOUR from the build-a-bear collection. Each from a different cast. One is dressed in costume as The Favorite from The Will Rogers Follies. Another has a voice box and my BOYS sang a ditty from No No Nanette into it. Another has a pink ribbon embroidered on her foot as I have on my car (from the cast of Footloose). That cast gave money to Breast Cancer research in my name. The last is from the cast of Children Of Eden.
If turkey was not on the menu this coming Thanksgiving, what would you like your meal to consist of? A roast chicken then? Plenty of veggies, stuffing and gravy.
Who is your oldest living relative? I have one aunt left and she'll be 83 this December and a cousin (born when mom was a child) who is just a little younger than my aunt.
What is the one song that has been overplayed on the radio anytime throughout your life, but that you never tire(d) of? So many I stop and listen each and every time they play.
Name one way in which you relieve stress. Breathe deep!
If I overheard you saying, "When will I ever learn?" what would you be talking about? Thinking my cast will KEEP the excitement they felt last week after performances when we start rehearsals for the next show. NEVER happens.
Have you started Christmas shopping yet? No I haven't...eek!
What did you have for breakfast this morning? Scrambled eggs and bacon.
Thanks for the questions - fun!
