Before my appointment though, I went to check out the nearby department store.
It had been about 6 months since the last time I was in this area, and there were some noticeable changes.
Especially this...one way into the store (on the left) and one way out (on the right).
There are temperature checking machines as well as alcohol hand sanitizers as you enter.
Also, instead of having escalators pass each other (up and down), they only have one side working for up and another escalator in a different part of the store for down.
Tokyo's numbers have come down quite a bit, but we still need to get the amount of hospitalizations down.
As for the dentist, I didn't have any cavities, BUT I have some fillings that need to be changed, so will need to go back a couple more times.
don't you think the dentist tells you that your fillings need to be replaced because he need to make money? LOL My dentist told me that too about a year ago but because of COVID, wasn't able to reschedule. Then when I went for a regular cleaning once he opened again, nothing was said about re-doing my fillings. What?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteSome stores were doing that separate entrance/exit (Walmart, for one) that was so inconvenient because had to go around the block once you got outside.

V, apparently the fillings were turning black which means they have mercury in them?! anyway, was pretty cheap to change it, only $10 with our insurance.
