so...heeeey

Hello people. I'm into the last quarter of my last full day at work. Today is gorgeous - sunny and warm and not too windy. Yesterday was brilliantly sunny too, but the southerly meant my jeans, t-shirt and jersey were not enough to keep me warm all day. Today though, I've just stripped off my t-shirt. Hurrah! The weather is set to be good, so far, round all the places we are going on our holiday. I'm happy about that.

Last night I made cookies to bring to morning tea at work. They didn't all fit in the container, so Adrian and I had to eat some. I think they went down pretty good at work - a few people have said to me thanks and they were really nice so that makes me shine a little more inside :)

I am going to the dentist tonight :S I've been having pain on the right side of my jaw... I hope it's nothing serious but I really don't know anything about stuff that can go wrong with your jaw. It can't be wisdom teeth-related I don't think, since all 4 of them are out. Also I was due for my yearly check-up which is never entirely pleasant either. I find it hard to relax (what a silly thing to say, doesn't everyone?), even if I don't think I need any fillings or anything, because the dentist usually leaves it right until the end to tell you either way, if you need some work or not. And the thing I fear the most? The injection. I hate them! When I was younger I so didn't want that needle near my mouth that I used to get fillings without anaesthetic (it's really not that bad actually). It was only recently that the dentist once said, "Really? Are you sure? Come on, I'll give you the anaesthetic, and you won't even feel it!" To be fair, I don't remember it being horribly uncomfortable or over-stabby. But I also have a distinct feeling of not having the desire to get an injection 'just' for a filling again. Ho-hum... I guess I may have to decide tonight, or in the new year if I need to go back to get stuff done then. I have to say though, overall my dentist is quite cool, he's a young guy and is always pleasant (as much as a dentist can be) and things are as painless as possible I am led to believe.

So tomorrow at work we are having a staff lunch at about 1 or 2 I think. After that everyone will probably go home gradually. Then on Thursday I believe the way it goes is to come in, tidy up, turn things off, bum around for a while, have a cup of coffee, say goodbye to people and then (slyly?) sneak off. We'll see. I'll be happy to do that if that's what most people are doing. Anyway, one of the ladies at work is organising a golf afternoon for those interested, starting at 1. So, if I'm still here then, I'll leave. We have to drive to Napier after all.

I guess that's all for now, love xxx
