The Cost of Beauty!


You would be so proud of me - I went to the dentist to get an estimate on a new partial. WELL, In order to have a new partial, I'm going to have to have 4 crowns yanked out of me gob! AND, 4 other teeth ground down and crowned to make room for the partial. $12 million!


The dentist is everso nice - His name is Dr. Dimitri and so I thought he was Greeek but he's Egyptian - a bit Omar Sharif ish - by the way - did you know that Omar Sharif's middle name was Dimitri? And anyway - who cares?


I got a big surprise on Monday when I get a letter from our grandson A. He has ended up where we thought he would - silly chap - and he has a girl friend who is in the pudding club. Lordy, Lordy! I don't whether to knit booties or poke me eyes out with the needles!


I got a notice the other day that our dear old Tax Accountant, George had died in October. His daughter, a CPA, has taken over the business and I shall call her after Feb.1 - as I think the taxes are going to be very complicated. - maybe I'll send the IRS me old gnashers as payment!


My relationship with my offspring is still very strained. I don't know how to make up for all the years that I was the world's most terrible mother and caused them to live miserable, cruel and selfish lives at the age of 50.


The garage door opener has gone to meet it's maker! I will have to get someone to install a new one. Shame when you have to pay people to do jobs around the house. Oh well, at this rate, there won't be any dosh left for the ungrateful ones. Hehe!


The rain has finally stopped and I did a good check of the roof - no leaks! Yea! I also took the car in for service and they had it smogged for me - I went straight down to AAA and got my new tags so that is that job for another year. Now I'm going to arrange a trip to Tucson.


I miss you so much - there is so much to do alone and some days I can't stop crying long enough to see what I'm doing. I wish you would come home - but I know you won't. I love you.


Do you remember when we went to Redlands? What a nice day we had. I have saved that shirt that you are wearing - I can't let it go xxxxxxxxxxxxx
