One of the few things to go right this last week has been my foray into concreting:
Apologies, I couldn’t quite manage to keep my feet out of the photo. The reason for the concrete is this metal arch/trellis:
Once the trellis is solidly in place, I’ll be planting out a male kiwi fruit to keep my female kiwi fruit happy. In the meantime, I’m trying not to feel too unhappy myself as I face the prospect of a root canal treatment [amongst other necessary horrors].
I wish I could say that this was all a surprise, but it’s not. I’m terrified of going to the dentist so always leave things until I’m in pain. I’m now in pain and the treatment will be worse than any ordinary filling would have been.
Look after your teeth and do as I say, not as I do. 😦
cheers

-blinks- love the hammer! How’d you do that? I think I learned to balance the physical with the mental [or the other way around] from my Dad. He was an engineer and maths whiz yet he did cabinet making and gardening for a ‘hobby’. Not up to his standard in any of those, but I do what I love. 🙂

You will feel no pain, Meeks, only pressure and movement. A good dentist will remind you of this before commencing the work. And of course, you can always say at the outset you only want to feel pressure and movement, and no pain whatsoever. Anyway, it sounds as though Pink can help you out with the tranquilisers! 🙂

Actually I was really surprised. I’m new to this dentist and it really wasn’t that bad at all. Of course having said that, I’ve probably jinxed myself for the next session…and the one after that….

Yes… take care of your teeth and your feet, together they take care of you. (But then, don’t ignore your skin, your eyes, your elbows… heck, take care of yourself!)

lol! I like that philosophy. I’m reasonably good except for the dentist, but my elbows are awesome!

I love arches in the garden 😀
Good luck at the dentist; I too avoid them like the plague. Doctors as well. I haven’t been to a doctor since I was 21- and interestingly enough that hasn’t stopped me from trying a whole lot of different medications.
