An Easy Day
 |
| Bartlett Pear |
The shape and color of the Barlett pear is perfect to sketch and paint. I removed the produce sticker easily. However, the skin of the pear sticks to the sticker.
Anxiety is like that. It sticks to you no matter how you try to manage it. Despite snow in the forecast, I decide I would not miss the dental appointment I need to get to. I told myself if the anxiety becomes too sharp, then as before, I can cancel. The world will not fall apart and neither will I.
Everything this morning went well. I didn't wake up tired, cranky or very anxious. I didn't send myself into a tizzy figuring out what to wear. My focus is to get out the door to the appointment. So I did.
I was on my way home in less than a hour there. In all of it, nice people, clean place, good information, spot on answers to all my questions at Aspen Dental.*
As a treat, I stop at a favorite place to pick up a sandwich and coffee on the way home. I planned to go back out to do errands, but instead, me and my sort muscles (from the closet clear out yesterday) dozed off. Now I'm awake with a hot chocolate, and wearing my new sweat pants as I sit on my deriere.
How has your day been?

I know you are happy to have your dental appt done! I need to make one but decided I would wait at least until next month. Giving ourselves a treat is a nice reward too. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteWe had a nice walk in cold but sunny weather. I hate having to re-schedule appointments!
ReplyDeleteDiane,
ReplyDeleteUp here in the north, I'm waiting until April when the snow storms aren't as likely. Hugs!
Love your new camper
Marie,
ReplyDeleteSunny and cold being outdoors is wonderful!
Appointments are a challenge to keep in the winter. One snowflake can throw off my desire to get going.
We had to cancel our dental appt a couple months ago due to DH having some sort of 'grunge' - couldn't get another appointment until July. Glad you made it to yours and that all was well.
ReplyDeleteMaryanne,
ReplyDeleteMy appointment was a struggle to get as I had to keep checking their openings at the closest clinic.
Making appointments with specialists for several years now has been really a long wait.
That pear is just perfect. So yellow! Seems like I only see them green. I'm glad you got into the dentist. And made it to and from safely. You deserve a break!
ReplyDeleteJeanie,
ReplyDeleteEverything went so well that morning, I began to wonder where I am. lol
I even did not go shopping over at Walmart, telling my self there's nothing over there I need right now. It felt like a miracle.
