I think my dental reconstruction project is wrapped up for the year, as of yesterday, except for the money I still owe, despite the insurance that should cover it.  All four quads have had major fixes.  Not much of the original components are left.  I have an android mouth.  So let that be a lesson: do all the dental things all your life and you may end up with most of your natural teeth, and spare funds for all the other debts!

It has been raining, but still fairly mild!  I can feel the garden’s relief.

I got a lot done at Avdi’s yesterday, so that I didn’t have spare time to worry that I’m not doing enough.  All those little projects check off boxes of petty annoyances that Avdi will never have time to get to.  But it’s not all drudgery.  Avdi brought home the mother load of giant dill pickles in a barrel jar, and all of us got to appease our communal pickle craving!  I earn my pickles!
