So it’s been a while! The last time Corpus Christi was celebrated here was in 2019, so everyone was pretty excited to have it back again. And even though it was tough getting up so early today I’m glad I did. Walked the rosemary strewn procession route before the procession started, even caught them bringing the La Cena paso to the Cathedral. But by the time I’d walked the route and taken some photos, and generally just enjoyed being out in the fresh morning air, it was time for breakfast. So as usual I didn’t see the actual procession. Maybe next year. Pics below…

broken tooth sequel

So back on March 10th 2020, just three days before LOCKDOWN I got a filling replaced. Actually more like half a tooth (molar) and the next door molar also had to be reconstructed a bit. My dentist told me at the time that if this one didn’t last then I would have to get a crown. And I was thinking things were okay until Sunday night when a big chunk of filling came out while I was having dinner. Ick.
And so I will be seeing my dentist on Wednesday to hear the verdict, but I’m already thinking that if he recommends a 500€ crown I’ll just tell him to yank the thing out and I’ll deal with that. I mean, at this point so many of my fillings are old and fragile, and occupy most of the teeth they are in, so this could be the first of many such episodes. And as this is a back molar that won’t be visually missed, then maybe best to just have it pulled and save any expensive procedures for ones that matter more. We shall see.
UPDATE: my dentist was able to repair the tooth so no crown, no muss no fuss, what a relief!
it’s heeerre!

We have an Alerta Naranja for extreme temperatures this weekend, though it actually started hitting 40º a couple of days ago. I am trying to wait until 2 pm (when cheaper electricity rates kick in) to turn on the AC but once it gets to 30º INSIDE it’s hard not to succumb. Howzit where you are?
