Karola Goes To The Dentist

Oh it’s Tuesday again so weekly shopping while Karola had a visit to the dentist. Following up on losing a filling at the weekend Karola finds thta she has three cracked teeth – we might call them “historical cases” because none of them are recent but Karola is now signed up for two crowns an a big filling. Today prepared the way for the crowns, that is, two big temporary fillings in the canyons made for the crowns and imprints sent to the Napier lab whee they 3-D make the crowns.

New World was pretty quiet mainly because it was quite early.

Electrician Ivan came and did some more work at the homestead. We had a chat and he convinced me that adding light switches for the lights in the new library should wait until we decide to GIB the living room. At that point, as part of the same project, and the same mess, Ivan can take out some boards to run the wires.

I called FloorMart and prompted them to get moving with laying the vinyl in the laundry and bathrooms so that the bathroom fixtures can be put in place and the rooms painted. Still hoping to get that all done so we have working loos and running water by Easter.

I began clearing the Bee room – the bedroom on the north east corner upstairs – in the hope that Paul can rustle up enough GIB to do that and have it GIB=stopped and painted before Bridget comes up. If Paul’s RAT is negative tomorrow he’ll be back on deck.

Orange Band is still broody, occupying one of the nest boxes in the chook house. As my attempt to purchase fertile eggs fell through – too late in the season – I’ve put a few eggs under her and will see what transpires.
