End of growing season

Well, looks like the growing season is pretty much done. It dropped below freezing in the solarium last night. Tomato plants took damage. Think I need another layer of plastic sheeting. Or get some auxiliary form of heat going. The potatoes are still growing and I'm sure the tomato plants just went dormant. They'll start growing again if I can keep the temperature above freezing. 

I need to look in my seeds and see if I have any broccoli seeds, maybe lettuce. They might survive the temperatures in the solarium right now. Otherwise, most things are a bust until late winter. I can use the solarium to get seeds started early for spring.

Had to keep my lower dentures out during work today. Still too much swelling for them to even fit. Seems to be going down. Not much pain but still have a lisp, have to speak a bit slowly. Kinda sound like Humphrey Bogart. If he had sinus problems and grew up in Texas. 

Aside from that, doing pretty good with them. I have occasional short bouts of nausea but that is decreasing. Mostly due to sinus drainage. I still think I'll get the next set made shorter than these, so they don't affect the soft palate. 

If lower dentures will fit and I can speak without lisping, think I'm going to go to karaoke this Fri. Won't be drinking much alcohol, mostly soda. Just want to start getting out again.  

I put a profile up on a couple of dating sites again. Only to be reminded of why I had taken them down. I've had replies from women seeking confirmation, dependency and conflict. One woman accused me of being a sadist, while she posted insulting comments about various people and tried very hard to offend me. I told her if she wants a true sadist to look in the mirror. Then told her to never message me again. Yeah, I may seek out friends, may seek out lovers but not immediately looking for any kind of commitment. Too afraid of what I could wind up with that I wouldn't want.

We had another Neighborhood Watch meeting tonight. This time with a sheriff and NW rep there. It went really well. A couple of the most radical people were thankfully absent. Then again I'm sure they're well associated with the sheriff's department.. So, things are moving forward.
