A bed of roses

So after ringing the emergency dental line yesterday but there being no appointments left, I was advised to ring at 8am this morning. I rang at 8.04am and was told I was in a really long queue and they'd ring me back. The called back about 8.35am by which point the only appointments left were in Chester. Now, as the crow flies - or even in a car - Chester isn't that far away. On public transport it's the best part of 2 hours from our house to Chester and then I'd have to find the place doing the appointment! So I turned it down. I was planning to go into the office tomorrow because I'm wfh on Wednesday due to husband's eye exam and then on Friday because I prefer Fridays at home, but I'm going to wfh tomorrow and Wednesday instead. I will then get to the dentist for 9am when they open and ask for an urgent appointment. There's no point ringing them and leaving a message. I have a quiet day workwise, so hopefully they can fit me in and find out what's going on. The worst thing about the toothache is it sometimes disappears completely and lulls me into a false sense of security - then it suddenly slams into my jaw again. Unhappy Rosa is unhappy.

But on the upside, I got to spend a lot of time on IFR today again. I have three gods fully restored and am working on the fourth. The questlines are varied in terms of their execution as well as what you're actually looking for. I'm picking up side stuff as I encounter it but not really seeking it out. Except Ambrosia. Ambrosia is good. Mostly, it's all pretty forgiving, or the story essentials are. As I said yesterday, I ran into an optional boss that hit HARD. Some new stuff has hit the PS+ Catalogue today, which I'll check out but if nothing really grabs me I may consider hoovering up All The Things in IFR ahead of returning to FFXVI.

Grandson #1 came to be one of the boys for the League Cup Final, which Liverpool won, of course :D Our first leaving gift for Jurgen. How do you follow a man like that?

And Eddie Edwards is out of DoI :( He was such a joy to watch, this year's surprise package. Expect the final will come down to Miles and Adele, but who knows?

And that was today but it seems like a very, very long time since I got up because I was making an effort to be ready to zip off to an emergency dentist :D At least I know I'll get some sleep if I'm sitting up.
