Monday 20th February 2012

I am gradually catching up with all my blogs which have fallen behind while I have been on holidays.
I have only my holiday blog to do for Byron Bay and the Southern Highlands and one month on the Golf Events Blog.

We opted not to play golf on Sunday as we were both feeling tired and had enough of wet golf courses.

Sunday 19th February 2012 we went over to Rod & Anne's to have some time with Joel and Emily.  Anne had taken Emily to the Medical Centre as she had a fever.  We had some quality time with Rod & Joel and left when Joel went down for his nap.  Anne came home from the Doctors with some antibiotics for Emily.  Emily was not herself & was very lethargic & went straight to sleep.   I was very tired & slept for most of the afternoon and then could not get to sleep that night.  My tooth was still swollen but not giving me too much trouble.  We were hit with a huge electrical storm with thunder & lightning & huge downpour of rain.
I listened to my Audible Book (Currently "reading" Broken Glass) for a while until the storm subsided.

Monday 20th February 2012 we were up early for F-Troop.  We have been away for 4 Mondays in a row and had a lot to catch up with.  I had organised delivery of some hedge plants before we went on holidays and they were delivered today.  We worked all morning getting the garden together.  There has been so much rain here while we have been away the gardens are over watered.  The lavender plants that went in before Christmas are dying from wet feet.  It is pouring down rain again as I write this & I wonder when it is going to stop.

I was able to get in to see my dentist today so he could pin point the trouble.  The news was all bad.  I have a cracked tooth that cannot be repaired so the tooth has to come out. - Not Happy Jan!
I now have to decide just how much money I want to spend on a repair method for the tooth.  Unfortunately these procedures are spelt out in thousands rather than hundreds.  Woe is me!
I am back to the dentist at the end of the month to face my fate. Meanwhile I will stay on antibiotics.

I am having a day off golf tomorrow as it is pouring rain & the course will be very heavy ( I have had enough of golf on wet courses).  If it is fine I will wile away a few hours in the Golf Club gardens and catch up with what needs to be done.

Wednesday I will be taking Anne to see "Annie" at the Lyric in Sydney.  That will cheer me up.
