The first of four visits (perhaps 5 when he sees the chip off one of my lower left teeth). Today is the start of the Root Canal - remembering what it was like last time - as long as he gives me enough numbing agent it isn't too bad. Of course it has to be a difficult one at the top but hey - let's get it over with.
I've spent some days re-building my Accounts spreadsheets and have been pouring over the figures as there appears to be a bit of an anomaly in the Bank Account - it is probably an unpaid cheque or some such thing. At least I have the spreadsheet under some form of control now which is good. I can also see at a glance the yearly spend which was always difficult before. Another couple of hours with it and I can send it off to a friend to be sanity checked.
I am beginning to get to the point of having to make a decision about this job - it has been well over 3 weeks and still nothing has come back - it really is a pain as there is no contact to chase it up. A Yes / No or even a Maybe would be something.
UPDATE:
Well, well, well. What a strange thing. The Dentist originally thought it was the tooth he had root canal filled a year or two back. He decided to drill the tooth next door as the X-Ray showed the Sinus (lump on my gum) appearing to head towards the root of that tooth. I did a little jump not far in and when he realised that the tooth was still "live" when it should be dead he reviewed things and so took out the Root Canal filled tooth - which came out pretty easily. I've saved a few bob but even so - that's one expensive tooth :-) I'm actually quite glad about that as I'd read some disturbing stuff on that on the Mercola web site. Under the rather alarming title "97% of Terminal Cancer Patients Previously Had This Dental Procedure.." it does pose a bit of a worry but then you hear and see so many of these types of stories.
Anyway - the main thing is that the little hole is filled and the tooth is out. Let's hope that gets this Sinus to go and speed the way for finishing off my teeth procedures quicker - I have one less appointment even though I have one extra filling. Mrs. F. will be pleased as it is a lot cheaper to have this course of treatment :-)
