It’s been about 7 or 8 months since my last dental cleaning. About 4.5 months ago I was laid off from my job so I lost my dental insurance. Around that time a filling fell out. It will be about another 6 weeks before I get dental insurance through my new job and I am trying to hang on until then but my teeth are hurting. If the pain continues then I’m just going to go ahead and make an appointment despite the cost.

Yes, I got to a meeting today. Did I like it? No. The first meeting I stepped into was attended by 3 older men and me and I was uncomfortable. I left the meeting feeling like I was being very rude but at the same time reminding myself that I am at the meeting for me and that if one of those men took my leaving so quickly as a personal affront, then that is not my problem. I went across the hall to a regular meeting. There were 20 men and 4 women and I was bored by the leader. My anxiety subsided and I started feeling sleepy. By the end of the meeting I could barely keep my eyes open. I didn’t share but I stayed through the entire meeting.
Well, my right knee has been hurting off and on for more than a year. It wasn’t hurting the day I signed up for the race but today it hurt and I only rode 4 miles! I haven’t given up on this yet but the ride portion of Savageman is 56 miles. I love to ride but not when my knee hurts on every pedal stoke.
