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!!

A couple of days ago I broke a tooth, which involved an essential and expensive visit to the dentist. To take advantage of a brief escape from lockdown, while out in the car I decided to visit a tree I know, to cheer myself up. By tree, I don't mean the occasional tiny windswept hawthorn bushes which are more often found West Penwith, but a 'proper' tree - quite rare at this end of Cornwall. After enduring the few weeks of gales we've had, the oak was looking a bit lacklustre in the flat afternoon light, but still sported a few russet leaves. I added a texture for a bit of extra interest.

This is the Dentist's house at Beamish Museum.

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!

This MOC is a gift that I built for my sister-in-law, who celebrates her 30 years as a dentist.

...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.

This sculpture's tooth fell out and now the dentist is trying put in a veneer. LOL

This is how I feel about going to the dentist...

On a second thought, the two for one offer "Check your car and your teeth" doesn't sound good anymore.

Dentist and young patient.

PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.

A dentist room and equipment at the bunker.

In the event of a medical crisis attention had to be provided without any outside help so the medical center was equipped with everything the doctors would need - an operating room, doctor’s area, pharmacy, and three bed infirmary. In a emergency, staff would have passed through the decontamination chamber and into the medical center for a radiation and health check.

Zombies don't visit the dentist to clean or repair teeth--in fact, they visit for the opposite reason--the ensure their teeth are horrifically scary.

Dentist DANA: "Open your mouth, Bruno! Hmmm, you need a tooth pulled! Probably overdoing it with sweeties...."

........................................

Dentist DANA: "You were a great help with the tooth extraction, Bruno! It only cost you half as much. The right molar was extracted in three attempts. Don't worry about the fang.... You still have three. You'd better listen to your best friend Maija and eat more carrots. Ha ha ha!"
