Saga of the Water Flosser

Usual Hawai'i Kai visit (always on Monday and Friday). Moms and I ate lunch at the Panda Express® as usual. I ordered entrées with more vegetables, attempting to be healthy and all. That's not including the fresh vegetables that moms prepares and brings along.

Of course, we had to shop at Longs® because that's what all the senior citizens do. Moms always runs into a lot of other senior citizens whom she knows. Fortunately for me, the Waterpik® products were on sale. Very timely, eh? So, I purchased a top-of-the-line model to replace the dysfunctional unit. Then, moms and I shopped at the only supermarket in the entirety of Hawai'i Kai.

Typical Waterpik® Hottie
Later, I ended up at the gym for my usual Monday workout. By the way, I have been struggling to complete my revised 50-minute cardio workouts. Pathetic considering that I used to take three aerobics classes in a row in the old days. When I checked my weight on the digital scale after the cardio session, I was stunned to see that my weight was 140 pounds (wearing gym attire). Just last Friday, I weighed in at 143 pounds. Whoa, Nellie!

At the start of my evening outing in Kahala, I donated the old Waterpik® unit to charity. Then, I decided to eat dinner at the fast food joint. Never mind that yesterday found me dining at two different fast food joints as I always do on Sunday. Long story short, I ordered two greasy "value menu" items and a medium-sized vanilla milkshake. Well, hey! I'm shrinking! I need to consume more junk food.

All that to say ... I highly recommend that everyone procure a Waterpik® appliance and use it religiously. Your teeth and gums will love you for it. Your dentist will thank you. That reminds me, I have a dentist appointment on Wednesday. Sheesh!

Well, April has been a very expensive month. Automobile registration ($360), wireless speaker ($150), Waterpik® flosser ($45), and probably about $130 for the dentist. Oh well.

Homeless Buddy Mini-Update®
My homeless buddy will apparently be requiring foot surgery for both feet. Thus, he will need the motorized wheelchair. He has applied for a rental unit in Chinatown. It is not low-income housing, but the rent for a furnished room is $425 per month. He has urged me to apply for a rental unit there as well.
