Good morning everyone
Happy Friday
it is a little brisk this morning in NE FL even with the fuzzy robe I had to turn the heat on this morning yikes I just checked and the high for today is only going to hit mid 50's with a little rain thrown in to add to the excitement and yesterday I was in shorts & flip flops
Hi everyone, Karla....it was a brisk 28 here this morning and is still only 37!!!!
**** Important QOTD announcement*****
As most of you have noticed,this is a busier than normal time of year.
So in order to free up a little time here in NE FL there maybe a Saturday or Sunday when the QOTD takes the day off.
I just wanted to give you all a heads up so you don't log in one weekend morning and not find a QOTD and worry that something happened.
I may just be sleeping in or am working on one of the "bazillion" house projects we have to get done by the end of the year.
Thank you in advance for your understanding and we can now continue with our regularly scheduled program
Completely understand Karla, and that is why I've been neglecting coming here lately, busy, busy, busy with holiday decorations, christmas parties, etc that we do for our business and charities....as well as family.

I've had the gas, it's ok, the novocaine can sometimes make me go into orbit , never had the pills but might be something I will try or ask about, and would prefer to be knocked out....I hate dentists and have spent many more hours with them than I care for.....last year, I had all my upper teeth crowned and bridged.....that was quite the painful experience, both to the body and to the pocketbook!!!

Nothing(I can't imagine but there might be a few of these folks) I had to have a wisdom tooth pulled. It had to come out. Medicine to take away the infection was something I was allergic to. No choice. Was this painful? HAHAHA. At other times, just a needle with whatever was the going thing at the time.
Bonus Question: The "History Fairy" is coming to visit.She will magically fly you back in time
Where will you go ?Far back would be Egypt and Rome. More current times would be the 1950s when I was in my 'teens.
What would you want to try doing ? Explore the Pyramids while they were being built and also explore the Fantastic water ways of the Romans. 50's...just finish school, not get married.
What you would bring back ? From ancient times, a schematic of their projects both big and small. 50s...Satisfaction....... a sense of accomplishment

Santa's List Day[/quote]...guess I'd better get to work on mine.
Karla, you do deserve to take some time off. You are the greatest. And there are a couple of people that could assist on those days. Wish that I could, but it does take talent.

If it's just a small cavity novocaine is enough but if the work is extensive I prefer to have everything they'll give me!!...LOL. I don't care for the laughing gas though, it just makes me dizzy and I still feel the pain.
