The days already seem to be flying past faster and faster. I guess when you are busy, the minutes go by so quickly they almost pick up a speed wobble. When I was in Cape Town recently, I was eating a chocolate bar, one of those nice ones with toffee and biscuit in the centre, and my filling came out. I thought I'd get it seen to when I returned to Tanzania, dentists being much cheaper here. Every week I say to myself, this week I'll make an appointment with the dentist, but that never seems to happen. The time just flies, the week is over, and I still haven't made a dentist appointment. Yesterday, while eating some chocolate I suffered from serious toothache. The moral is, don't eat chocolate until you've made the time to fix the hole in your tooth. But life is a bit like that. We make time for hanging out with friends, watching our team win a rugby match, but we don't make the time for essential things like dentist appointments. Learning to prioritise is a skill, and I can't wait until I learn it. However, as I'm getting old now I'm beginning to realise that it might be one skill I might never learn. Time is running out.
This weekend though, I did make the time to write two new hubs and make a video of Part One of The Great Mountain to Mountain Safari - the down trip. The hubs are completely different from each other - one is about a Thyroidectomy and Weight Gain and the other is Part One of my Mountain to Mountain Safari, with excerpts from the book I'm currently working on. So, I guess I should feel as if I accomplished something, worked on Sunday, went to TWO BBQ's on Saturday, but still no dentist. I seriously must make the time to make that appointment. It's that or no more chocolate.
