Well, it has taken me some time to get back here after charging my keyboard. The state of my mind as it is means that I got on with other things and haven't event looked at the possibility f writing on the iPad again since. I'll have to overcome my frustration and have another run at it.
Meanwhile, life has flowed on. Not much of note has happened to me, but that seems quite usual, since I live a life of routines. Preparing for Sunday worship, conducting a funeral or two have been major activities for me. A much more emotionally laden activity has been the replacement of my "new" dentures with yet another set of new dentures, this time from a denturist who appeared to be more competent and an artists to boot.
The whole denture saga has been one of high emotional stress and financial dis-tress. I had the new ones for four months, and in the end, still had mouth sores that made it difficult to eat, Four months, and $4800 !! I finally quit the denturist and went down the street to a newer one. She is competent, and funny, and cost me 1/2 the price! In just three weeks I have a set of teeth that fit, are not so bulky and unsightly, and that produce no sores. I have since begun to hear stories of my incompetent first choice. There is nothing I can do about it apart from warning people that he is an over charger, big time, and incompetent to booth! I think that adds up to shyster, but I will write that no other place but here.
Last week seemed to be a succession of medical visits of one kind or another, plus beginning to fuss about completing the financial report due the Provincial government after the recent election. Help with preparing that begins this after noon.
Evening now, and first steps on Provincial report done.I need a meeting with our candidate and a consolidation of our information to finalize the report. Another death to follow up on. An elderly man, with adult children all over central Alberta. Great fun trying to coordinate a meeting with them on the weekend.
The sky is grey tonight, and the air is still. There is a storm brewing somewhere in the region, promising 15-20 miml of rain before morning, plus lightening. It was be a restless night for many, as this sort of storm on the flat prairie often means hail. Large hail can devastate crops, just coming into full flower. It's an uneasy time in the atmosphere. We wait, and the farm folk scan the sky for signs of disaster or reprieve.
