A New Chapter

Happy Sabbath,

Today was a nice day. I had a great day at service
I practiced with the praise team and showed some children how to play a few songs on the piano. I had the largest group ever today for children's Church and had a good turn out for Sabbath school. My son worked on some new church projects with another child and I had fun playing some of the videos he helped produce. It was a busy but good day.  My pastor is going on to a new congregation so that was surprising.  We will miss him and I hope and pray that the Lord will guide our church's leadership and give us someone fit to help us accomplish the Lord's will and missions. Alot of changes and hopefully for the better.

I was off Thursday and Friday. Thursday I thought my cousin's funeral was being held but it wasn't.  I decided to stay off for that day, so homeschool with my son and get rest..His funeral was Friday and i heard they gave a great service and send off. I still can't believe he is gone and at such a young age. He named his son like he named mine. He gave him two middle names and his is King James. I hope he gives his heart to Jesus and doesn't make the same mistakes that his family has made. Friday he and I had appointments.  His went well and mine well my tooth stopped hurting. I do have an appointment scheduled for Friday next week which I am thinking of keeping. They can evaluate as to whether I need a root canal for two of my teeth. The appointment before last I was told I had three that needed repair. They said I was missing a filling but when I was checked yesterday,  this guy told me I wasn't.  So which one is it? I'm not going to pay for people to fool around with my teeth and nothing is wrong with them. I'm doing OK for now so I think I'll do the appointment next week to get the answer but will hold off until next year to make repairs. I'll probably have to pay around $300 for the two appointments of looking around my mouth only. I will also consider looking for another dentist because they should have been able to tell me what was wrong during yesterday's visit. Not wasting my time and deciding not to do anything.  They looked at xrays and video of my teeth for years and I opted not to do the work because it's so costly and my insurance is trash.  If I keep things clean I can avoid more expensive work.

I am going to straighten up and take my pre-work nap. I had a good lunch and my son had his pizza. I'll pester him for a bit and will call it a night.
