Going, Going, Gone

The case of the missing clothing has been solved.

The items did not fall through a portal, back of the closet into another dimension. They were simply stuck in clutter.

Except for two tops, that had seen better days, and a pair of worn thin leggings and a few tops — never worn, tags still on, I didn’t get rid of much.

The better days items went to the dumpster, those with tags still on are going to Twin 2.

Items not worn in years, just taking up space, but which I want to hold onto for the time being, are now out of the way, stored in clear containers — like the skirts and blazers I’ve not worn since 2017.

What’s remains in the closet is athletic wear, because that’s all I wear these days — leggings and tops.

Marie Kondo, the maven of organization, suggests "Organize clothes by category, putting the same items all together in one area", which is pretty much what I did — right to left starting with black tops with designs on the front, brightly colored plain tops, black short sleeve tops, sleep tops, black no sleeve tops, leggings, jackets.

While organizing the closet, I even found that blood pressure monitor that went missing in November.

How it went from the front room, ended up in the bedroom closet, on a top shelf pushed behind a three-hold punch, is a mystery — maybe it levitated on its own; but now I have two because, unable to find it, I’d purchased another.

If all goes as planned, next to go is the dentist. The permanent crown gets placed on tomorrow and then I’m moving on to a dentist I can trust — one that won’t cheat me, lie to me in order to meet his quota or pay off his student loans.

Judging by the negative reviews popping up on Yelp, I'm not the first to go since the staff changes and probably won't be the last.

Reviewer 1: "I have been a patient for 12 years, I'm aware with Covid some employees didn't return back, but the new employees are not nice, very poor bed side manner, especially Carolina the X-ray tech. You can honestly tell she hates her job. The moral over all has changed in the office I'm deeply saddened, my kids have grown up here and are so comfortable. but I think it's time to look else where!"

Reviewer 2: "This is an update from my review a couple years ago. During COVID the true colors of this company came out. They have a terrible business ethic and have zero disregard for their patients. They have mislead many of their patients during COVID after they laid off all their senior hygienists and dentists. If you love your teeth and your health do not go to this office. All they care about is money and not the patient".

I, myself, have no complaints about the new staff, including the X-Ray Tech. It’s just that I don’t trust either of the two new dentists.

I can’t imagine what a shock it must be to my long-time dentist McDreamy (named thusly because of his handsome face, blue eyes, silver grey hair) that he, and his team, have been "laid off" from a practice they caused to thrive. In fact, McDreamy was credited with being one of the three best dentists in the area.

It probably won't hurt this new team much that us long-timers are leaving, because there’s a sucker born every minute — newcomers won't know what they're doing isn't in the client's interest, but born of greed.

I’m just sorry I let Dr. C sucker me into work I’m not even now sure needed to be done at the hefty cost of $2,974.40!, work that I’m also not sure he’s done correctly or that might cause a future problem where none needed to be.

The good news is, it's the last money he'll get out of me.

Thinking I was boo boo the fool, he laid out a plan for more exorbitant "needed" work and will probably tomorrow be asking about when I plan to schedule that work.

I'll lie to him, like he's lied to me.

Tell him I want to wait, see how the work he's done turns out.
