inspection is over. our apartment was not chosen. i try not to be frustrated at the futility of those 13 days of anxiety. after all, much work was done on the apartment and that is good. we like things neater and more organized. and cassidy would not have helped if there hadn’t been a deadline.

the retreat was mostly good. the base was very different from the military bases in utah. we didn’t see the inside of the barracks, which is good because from the description we would have been triggered. there was only one building, the maintenance building, that looked like what we were used to. we stayed in officers housing, which was houses. we had our own room. very nice accommodations. the beach was beautiful! we got to spend time on the beach two different times. but a whole lot of the time we were working. and we got to know many people better.

we finally got a call from our dental student. dshs still hasn’t approved our denture. so it is not even made. even the billing person is surprised it is taking so long. so who knows when the surgery will happen…i have just about given up hope on it. i don’t know how much longer we can hold out. it hurts to eat.

our ears are also hurting. we got an appointment with one of the doctors that works with ours. dr. robbie is on vacation, so we couldn’t see her. the doctor we saw was nice. very cute. our ears aren’t infected, so that is good. the pain is caused by pressure in the sinus cavity that leads to our ears. we can take sudafed to treat the sinus symptoms, but a great deal of the problem won’t clear up until we get these stupid teeth taken care of. argh.

we have been having very active and vivid dreams. we don’t remember most of them. we do remember one from last night…a hospital dream. usually that means something big is going on. i don’t know what that is. i guess time will tell.
