Teeth cleaning

I finally made the appointment to get me teeth cleaned. Went in this morning. Just a cleaning $90. No pictures or Doctor visit as I am trying to be frugal and we don't have dental coverage. I just can't stand not having my teeth cleaned regularly. I had to sign a waver stating if my teeth fall out due to no x-rays the office is not at fault. It just feels so good to have clean shiny teeth again. The boys go in next week.

I also opened a new bank account. I miss my old bank and its user friendly on line access. I couldn't stand Bank America anymore. Making me wait ten days when adding a merchant to Bill payer, or wanting to know where my friends bank in order to mail them a check. I would put in my request to add a person to send a check to, and the information would not take. I would wait the ten days and still my new person would not be added. I had to hand write a check.

I know that seems petty, but with bill payer there is a record easy to find if I ever need to go back and look. I can break the payments up for tax purposes in neat little printouts showing my expenses in categories. If I hand write a check all I get is a coded number on my account. No record of category of expense whether it was for insurance or food or cars, unless I open up the check each time and physically look at the picture of the check on line. With bill payer I can click on my utility company and see the history of as far back as I want to go. See if my utility costs have gone up or down or my grocery bill week to week has changed, how often I am filling up on gas. There is just so much information available if the system would work.

I used my old bank's bill payer for everything. Bank America is just not as user friendly. I am going to try somewhere else. Unlimited merchants, easy access, good record keeping capacity. We'll see how it goes.

Meanwhile, the floors still wait for completion. I am close to the far wall now. Tom and I are dwelling on how to install the last three or four rows. The nail gun doesn't fit that close to the wall. You can't swing the hammer to hit the ball. The handle of the gun hits the wall. I suggested gluing the last boards in the tongues. I will let you know what we figure out. We are so close to being done.

We are into week two of the project, so buying the nail gun was a good call. I would have had to rent for two to three weeks and been at the price of buying one.
