There is a long story to go with this brief thought, but I don't want to tell the whole story. So, suffice it to say that I have had a temporary overlay on a bottom molar for about eight months. The temporary nature of this overlay is borne out in how often it falls off! It fell off on the plane between London and Chicago, so I went to the dentist yesterday and had him glue it back on. Thankfully, it looks like everything is now set to put on the permanent overlay, so I will be going back to Grand Rapids next month sometime to get impressions made. Another month after that and they will put the permanent overlay on. Yes!
I think I figured out the headache thing. I've had several other ones, recently, and it occurred to me that it may be related to sinuses. I started sleeping with my head elevated on a few pillows and headaches seem to have quit. Last night I thought I was over the cold/sinus thing, and slept without my head elevated. Headache this morning. The good thing is the headache does go away by itself as the day goes on, presumably because the sinus pressure reduces on its own after I am in a vertical position for a few hours.
This evening I ate dinner at a friend's house. He was in England without family for a long time, and we ate out with him, and maybe invited him over to the house for dinner, too. So, I guess this was payback! It is nice to have some place to go in the evenings when you are traveling. And, it is odd to be traveling while at your own house, but that is how it feels with the family in the UK and me in the US. Dave had seen a recipe in a magazine for some kind of chocolate cake mousse dessert thing. He had never made anything like it before, and had to go out and buy custard cups to bake the dessert in, but it was very good. Glad that my visit was a good enough excuse to do something different like that.
