I reach for my phone on the bedside table to check the time...4.20am...one again I have been woken by my toothache. It's not as bad as it has been and I lie in the warm, snuggly bed for a while knowing I will have to step out and venture into the cold kitchen for some pain killers shortly. I listen to the stillness of the house, interspersed by the sounds from the side of me. Tony is not snoring but he is definitely breathing noisily! I make a quick trip down stairs for the paracetamol and race back to the warmth under my duvet. I am awake now and I count the days to my root canal treatment. 2 weeks today. A bird starts tweeting outside. Surely not the dawn chorus already?

Oh poor you having toothache. I hope it isn't too painful in the next fortnight. The podcast seems like a perfect way to get back to sleep. What's not to like listening to something about pretty paper etc? :0)
Hope your toothache will be gone soon.

You have all my sympathy for toothache, especially the sort that needs deep treatment, is just the worst, Hoping you weather the next two weeks and that something happens on the job front for you. Your writing is so very vivid, I could almost feel the cold under my feet. And I am intrigued by that super photo (?). Thank- you so much for joining in and linking up this month - delighted to read your moment. :)
