Hot. Passionate. A night to remember.

Worlds collide when she meets billionaire CEO LEYTON THOMAS, sparks fly and they have whirlpool fling. Suddenly feelings get deeper, and become to turning into a perfect fairy with a handsome fine-looking rich prince.

 Dentist outcome! Dental Treatment is Expensive!



Every time I sit in the dentist's chair, i just hear the cash register and a feel a hole being drilled into my pocket, a drain. My bad, my fault for not taking care of my teeth. Look after your teeth, they are expensive to fix. It's cheaper to look after your teeth. 



I need to get another crowned and believe me, I feel I'm working just for dental treatment.  So dentist did the normal dental tests  - thankfully ruled out a root canal with would have been more expensive and PAINFUL -and had a chat with me outlining the options. 

Types of Dental Crowns 

There are four different types of dental crowns.
Ceramic — These are used for restoring front teeth, and are popular in this area for their ability to blend with your natural tooth color. The crown is made of a porcelain-based material. 
Porcelain-fused to metal – This crown provides a stronger bond than regular porcelain because it is connected to a metal structure. It's also extremely durable. 
Gold alloys – This crown is a mix of gold, copper and other metals. In addition to providing a strong bond to the tooth, it doesn't fracture, nor does it wear away the tooth itself. 
Base metal alloys – This crown is made up of non-noble metals that are highly resistant to corrosion, and make for a very strong crown. It also requires the least amount of healthy tooth to be removed prior to fitting.

Yes,  I live in the UK and we have the NHS (National Heath Service). The issue is that most dentists mix and match their treatments with private and NHS prices. Also NHS tends to unclear on what is provided. Basically the crown treatment is £250 on the NHS, but then comes the crown materials. Stainless steel is the most inexpensive but it seems it may be more temporary for an adult then an upward sliding scale to gold. LOOK AFTER YOUR TEETH!

WRITING?

Busy at the moment with work and life. I might have to cancel some travel plans. Even practice writing isn't going as well. Ok well. I need to suck up, buttercup, not be a snowflake. Mindset is all that matters. Do you really believe in the whole mindset culture? The whole snowflake culture? I don't, but it's fun to use.

    Thanks a lot for sharing all of these wonderful details here. I also would be getting the treatment from dentist Manhattan Beach for fixing dental aesthetics. I was not pleased with the front two teeth but after getting my treatment from him, everything has changed for all the good reasons!

Show me your desk: Books, magazines, bottle of water, and same old clutter.

Today I have more of a writerly desk, so let's roll. From the far left handside is my writing magazine, I treat myself to it, and it has some interesting articles at times. It's just something I flick though the way other people buy GQ, Vougue or Marie Claire. It's my monthly interest magazine, and no I don't do the writing exercises but then who buys all the clothes, make-up and perfume advertised in the high-end women's magazines.  Next is a bottle of vitamins, this was a gift from Sis. Yes, as you probably realise, Sis is very generous with her gifts as they are normally featured on my desk. If fact the Apple Notebook is also one.  A small fact is that I bought my first phone only two years ago because for the last ten years, Sis gave me all her hand-me-downs. She's very on top of technology - ahead of the curve, wave or early adaptor.  Anyway she got me them because she's into healthy eating and body care, and probably got them on discount. ...

Up Date on Happenings: Newly Single & 17% pay raise.

Hey Everyone, So update since my last entry. Well I had a brief fling with Mr Sexy Guy and decided he wasn't the one for me. He was cool but I learned the difference between lust, chemistry and personality. It just didn't tango for me. I'm still grossly overweight, well, fat. I don't think there is anything wrong with being called fat. I am fat. I need to lose weight but that means getting organised and stop eating delicious food. Then again my knees are hurting me and joints feel the ache. I also haven't been to the gym in three months despite paying for it. But when I do, I normally go for the sauna, hot tub and   steam room session. I've thought of cancelling the exorbitant membership but in the climate apart from bills it's the one thing that is just for me...that when I use it. Work is fine, managed to get a 17% pay raise. A big thanks to my boss who also pushed for it. It's good to work for people who support you in that matter. I think tha...

Had coffee with a fellow writer, went to an exhibition on West Africa: Word, Symbol, Song at the British Library.

There was a massive Disney Christmas tree at St Pancras Station.  I thought I'd start with that picture. Implemented Accounting Guru Genius (AGG)  method this morning. I mentioned yesterdays she showed me her way of planning. Well it's kinda like project management critical path and working back but in AGG's way.  Well the results where what I sort of knew but it's official. I do too much. I've got so much on that I have make very slow progress with anything then end up procrastinating. So I really need to learn and get this planning and time management method under my belt. The only reason is that it's kinda the only thing I actually got. When AGG first did it, I was amazed. It was so impressive. I kinda forgot about it but it's coming up to the end of the year, and I've made great progress with some goals and projects but others are still hanging. Anyway after putting in all my hours I realised I only had a certain amount of free time. Not a...
