On February 8, I planted a tomato plant and a strawberry plant.
This month has been very busy so far. I wanted to update what's been going on so far.
To start with, I got my new glasses both for long-distance daytime and nighttime. I can't wait to go get my driver's license! After getting the glasses we went to La Huasteca for a much deserved Mango Margarita.
Tuesday the 8th, Lizzie took me to the DMC. I was so prepared. Knew the driver test questions100% and I was very confident I could read even the smaller numbers in the chart. We get there, they call my name., they said because of Covid they don't give the written test, what? and after checking I had previously paid for the license, I got my temporary one. I didn't even have to read the chart!!! I'm happy but it was such a letdown in a way.
Then here comes the saga of going to the dentist to take care of what I thought was going to be a non problematic filling of a cavity. How wrong I was! We went to a new dentist, she said I needed a root canal and a crown, but the appointment was canceled because she was sick, a couple of days later Feb 16, I tried another dentist at the same office, she was going to do the root canal! It was going well (I took my Xanax) and she spent a long time working on it, then stopped and said she had to refer me to a specialist. I couldn't get an appointment until Feb 28. In the meantime, I can hardly eat, only soft stuff. Oh I also had my hair cut and colored on Feb. 16, it was a full day
Some bad things happened this month. My sister Mia has been in and out of hospitals with a kidney stone, an infection and other problems. She has had a lot of pain and they may have to have surgery since she cannot pass it naturally. On Feb 11 I got a call from my niece saying my cousin Ferran had died of COVID and other complications, I got very upset and sad, he was my favorite cousin, we grew up together. I'm so glad I got to see him during our trip to Spain. My sister Nuri called me to talk about Ferran, she was also sad.
