Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a green day at Color my World Daily and I have a dentist appointment. Usually I love green days : I have tons of laundry to fold and a 10km to run so what is there not to love , I’m asking you ? But frankly, this week I don’t feel so joyful about my green day…I’m very, very anxious about dentists and all their tiny but sharp instruments … I’m also very, very attached to all my teeth and I don’t like any people, especially those holding syringes or other sharp or drilling instruments, touching my teeth…But, I have to go since I have dental insurance at work and I have to visit my dentist at least once a year… So today is the day….I will probably drink with a straw for the rest of my day after my appointment and I should have some very funny conversations with Alexa . I’m sure I will have some pronunciation challenges ahead of me ! Wish me luck !
And if you wonder: my today's picture has absolutely nothing to do with my dental appointment.... My teeth line looks a little bit like my picture (very uneven) but it is the only common point. Oh boy, my dentist will have some major work ahead...
See you later my friends ! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
Continuing with the theme of buildings, here is a shot of a dentists that I took. This building is very much still in use and my wife used to go there as a child.
A square format suited this best. I love the lines, shapes and symmetry of this one..
A lot of the old commercial buildings of the early 1900’s carried a name either of the proprietor or the company that had it built. If your dentist had a suite in this building you would tell people that he was in the Watercott building and they would know where you meant without an address. Years ago a big shot lawyer came from Chicago to inquire about renting a suite in our local Lehman Building. The building manager showed him the place and he seemed well pleased. On the way in though he noticed that a couple of old shabby looking men were running a news stand on the sidewalk in front of the place. He told the building manager that those two would have to go however if he were to rent there. The building manager replied: “Sir, those two men own this place.” It was the Lehman brothers. They were a couple of eccentric millionaires whose family name was on the building. Don’t judge a book by its cover.
We took a day trip to Los Algadones Mexico and learned something interesting. Evidently Los Algadones is very well known as a town for tourists from the US and Canada to come to for dental work, medications and eye glasses. Cheap prices, good work, and many of the clinics accept US insurance!
This is a typical street in Los Algadones and I count at least 10 different signs for dental offices. If you're curious just plug these numbers into Google Maps and see how many you can find:
32.71340805178894, -114.73698994533632
It seemed strange to walk into the town and get touted for dental work, medicine, and glasses not cheap trinkets. "Hey buddy, you need a good dentist"? "Lady, lady, best pharmacy in town right here"! "You looking for Botox"? "1 hour glasses, we got them here". "Come inside, we've got medicine and liquor here".
The touts were really hustling for customers because no one was walking the streets. It was 106 Fahrenheit (41 Celcius) outside a little warm for a casual stroll.
Interesting little town, evidently it gets packed in the winter with the snowbirds. Don't think we'll be going back any time soon and no, we didn't get any dental work!
nu mi-am imaginat niciodata ca dentistii au atatea ace !!
mai subtiri...mai lungi...mai colorate...mai spiralate...:)
azi am luat cunostinta cu toate...
trista experienta...uuf
It's over 40 years since I gazed up at these lights while sitting in the dentist's chair!
The former dental surgery in Dundalk is a time capsule from decades gone by.
It has recently been purchased by three young businessmen who already own a successful pub in Dundalk and they have plans to convert it into a budget-friendly boutique hotel.
The dentist and his assistant have a patient they need to work on.
It still needs some work. I think I am going to add a scene or two to make this better.
This sculpture's tooth fell out and now the dentist is trying put in a veneer. LOL

...at Beamish Museum in County Durham.
Ravensworth Terrace originally stood on Bensham Bank, in Gateshead, and was built for professional people and tradesmen between 1830 and 1845. Beamish Museum saved six of the houses from demolition during the Seventies, and rebuilt them between 1980 and 1985.
Numbers Three and Four are, respectively, a dentist's practice and his family home.
Good morning everyone, happy Friday by the way, well, I am kind of sad because yesterday I went to dentist and guess what, since last time they took both my left side and right side wisdom teeth off, they figure out that my molar was damaged by my wisdom tooth.
So, as a result, I lost both my left and right side molar because of the wisdom teeth, sad, so sad. And here are some of my black and white pictures, hope you will like it and tomorrow, I will upload the pictures which I taken in Shantang Street recently.
