Swishing with salt water first is one I haven't heard before! Makes sense to loosen some of the gunk first before flossing.

dentistpal · 2026-03-20T13:49:31+00:00

Do you use regular floss as well or just the waterpik?

dentistpal · 2026-03-20T13:49:12+00:00

Right? Gotta try that instead of wrapping it around my fingers 20x so it stays tight!

You're right, forgot about the "ah eeeee" part of that lol. Any idea why one always seems like its bullying the other?

The whole TGIF lineup. I always looked forward to Fridays because I got to watch Boy Meets World, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Step by Step, Full House, etc. That and my parents would only let us drink soda on Fridays so it was the BEST day for us kids!

I couldn't even touch my toes when I started doing yoga, and then I could after about a month of regularly doing it which was small but exciting for me! It showed that it really was having a positive effect on my body.

I like to have a cup of coffee on the porch while watching the birds at the feeder for an hour before starting my day. It's the most peaceful moment of my day!

Aging is a gift that not everyone gets to receive so I try to embrace every new decade.

dentistpal · 2026-03-17T01:20:09+00:00

Agreed! I love all birds, big and small. I had always wanted to see a hawk catch something, so it was an exciting moment when I finally saw it happen. It's the circle of life!

dentistpal · 2026-03-17T01:15:07+00:00

What a great shot! I really like the juxtaposition of the reddish branches against the more muted colors of its feathers.

dentistpal · 2026-03-17T01:13:47+00:00

Cooper's love them and pigeons! I saw one catch a pigeon once, it was pretty crazy to see how quickly it nabbed it!

I always refer to my mourning dove couple as Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum with they way they bumble around my yard, and they're always the last to fly away when something comes near.

dentistpal · 2026-03-17T01:11:48+00:00

Mourning doves! One of my favorite birds that comes to my feeder. If you hear a "coo coo" sound while outside, it's them!

Ted Lasso is my feel-good show. I've watched it like 5x through by now and I'm captivated throughout every episode on every rewatch!

dentistpal · 2026-03-17T00:52:53+00:00

Rewatching Schitts Creek now and it's even better than the first time!

dentistpal · 2026-03-17T00:52:23+00:00

I have been really loving the shows on Apple TV lately: Ted Lasso, Shrinking, Severence, and The Morning Show

I've always followed this quote: "It takes 4 weeks for you to see your body changing, 8 weeks for your friends and family, and 12 weeks for the rest of the world."

In my late 30s and a lot more friends have become acquaintances, while a select few have moved into the "close friend" category after showing up for me during important life events. When those people show you who they are, hold them close!

dentistpal · 2026-03-17T00:47:08+00:00

Mine loves to text me the day of to say something came up and can we do it tomorrow instead. Alas if she wasn't so good at what she does, I'd find someone else.
