bad chlorine, bad
I don’t think anybody ever thought chlorine was a good thing. But most of us probably thought it was a necessity. I actually refuse to use bleach when doing my laundry and I have minimized cleaning products in my house that have bleach or chlorine. For cleaning and doing dishes I instead try to use brands such as Method and Seventh Generation. I also utilize Clorox Green Works.
One thing I have not thought about is bleached paper. I think I am currently using bleached coffee filters, which after reading this article from Care2, I am now in fear off. But I hate to waste things so I will probably continue to use them and then once gone, buy unbleached filters.

I am home sick today. I started getting a sore throat on Saturday evening and it has progressed into a bad head cold. Today it feels like it is trying to enter my chest so I hope a day of relaxation at home cures me. Scott is taking good care of me. He is a wonderful support when I do not feel good. I hate being sick so I really hope I get better soon. Luckily I have my MacBook Pro so I can lounge on the couch and stay connected. 
And I get to watch HGTV in HDTV on my 47 inch LCD TV. Not a bad way to recuperate.
feel brand new
Yesterday I had a dentist appointment to get some fillings revamped, as they were starting to discolor and such. This is a new dentist office and I think I am going to really like it. A week ago I had the first visit and she was very shocked at how poor a job my previous dentist did on the fillings and that she had actually drilled away some of my enamel leaving my teeth very rough. So she wanted me to come back to get the fillings fixed and my teeth smoothed out. I didn’t need Novocaine this time as she was only drilling halfway into the old fillings and redoing them. She smoothed out two of my teeth that were left roughened by my old dentist. My new dentist even went as far as to do what she could to make m smile even. So she shortened one of my teeth and lengthened another. Now t feels like I have brand new teeth. My top teeth look even and can run my tongue over them and not feel the roughness I had before. I am very pleased so far with this dentist. That is a good feeling to have.
here you can see my new level smile, where all my teeth are even length
in case you can't find my teeth, Scott is guiding the way.
