OK. Just back from the dentist. Last week, during my check-up, the dentist decided that the crack in that back molar had gotten serious enough to do somethng about. So, I've just had a temporary crown put on. In two weeks she'll put on the permanent one.

When it rains it pours, huh? But look at the bright side: after my January 2 procedure with the surgeon (removing the PEG tube) and today's appointment with the dentist, I'll bet I've already shot past the insurance deductibles for the year!
