Introduction


Can each day be headlined by a word (or two) and represented by a single sentence?

Will they, in turn, weave together to form a tapestry of the year?

It may be more mundane than momentous, but it’s mine to share.

Appointment with Fear

I used to be terrified of going to the dentist, now I am merely apprehensive, or maybe not even that judging from today when, despite an imminent appointment, I was relaxed enough to doze off in my armchair, waking up twenty minutes before my due time still a twenty minute drive from the surgery, which with the intervention of road-works and a tractor meant I was a good ten minutes late arriving; unfortunately the dentist still let me in, but so as not to inconvenience the next patients he did the bare minimum of a scrape around with a pointy stick and a quick whizz with the drill – could be a tactic I adopt for next year too.
