When people tell you that getting fillings replaced "Shouldn't be too bad" slap those MF"s up the side of the head.
23 hours later, bruised cheek, can't open my jaw and ear is ringing.
The fillings were likely 40 years old, 2 molars beside each other and what felt like at the back of my head.

Making 1 of 2 carrot cakes for Thanksgiving. Panic has set in. Did I put in 2 cups of flour or 3? I think I put 3. I only needed 2. I hope I don't have a do-over pending......
Guess I'll find out in 20 minutes when I pull the first one out of the oven.
Damn.

Pre-making 100 meatballs for thanksgiving (mixing rolling, baking - you get the idea) after getting both my Covid & flu shots today (one in each arm) was not the best planned out schedule of events for the day.
Arms both hurt and have a headache. But those meatballs ain't gonna roll themselves...

I for one, am excited Portage & Main is opening to pedestrians. I mentioned this to my Mom today and she said:
"People should walk above ground while they can, because we'll all spend enough time underground when we're dead'.
Embrace the change peeps.

Voted! And then I went & picked up Mom and took her to her polling station so she could vote too. (I had to make sure she didn't let a little cold weather stop her from casting her vote)!
Now to decide what supper will pair best with a night of election results on TV.
