Out in a bit. Have to find out what I can use to soak my partial because of everything having mint it. I can't have mint. Then a couple of other things to do.

. I went online looking for a mint-free denture cleaner. Maybe they make something like that, but I sure didn't find any!

So I thought, well maybe soak in peroxide? But then I found it's not recommended bc the peroxide can damage some of the materials.


And since I don't have partials this is kind of out of my experience, but don't you have to rinse your partials before you put them in? And/ or scrub with a soft toothbrush? Doesn't that get rid of the taste? Or is it the smell? Maybe use a cover on whatever you soak them in so it doesn't keep effervescencing scent into the air?

There isn't anything I can soak them in over night that doesn't have mint in it.

No. The denturist office gave me some guide lines and one was nothing like peroxide or vinegar because it can damage the materials.

I do rinse them before I put them in. But it is getting any lingering food partials off of them which is why the soaking. The problem with the mint is the taste. I am basically allergic to it now and having it in my mouth if I forget to brush them I will make myself sick.

The denturist said to brush them using a little dish soap or hand soap then wash them off and soak them over night in warm water. Don't much care for either idea but I have to do something as I am almost out of the polident I do have with no mint.

Got back a while ago after doing everything outside. Inside I managed to finally sort out my t-shirt drawer. Yay! Found a couple too small for me, several that need washing and rechecking. Along with a couple that have logos on them that I had forgotten I even had and those need to be washed.


As I was going out this morning there were a couple of cops wanting in. Not sure what happened but one of them had a paper with them. Not good.

Yeah, it's good to do a deep dive thru your stuff every now and then. Sometimes there are useful things buried in the pile!

Yeah, that drawer really was a jumble of stuff. No wonder I couldn't find things.

I know but unless a notice goes up because of them doubt anyone will know. Between you and me it did make me curious.

BRENDA, "nosy" is my middle name. I would have been (covertly) trying to read the papers as I walked by!

Almost certainly not a subpoena, since those sre delivered by civilian process servers. The mind goes to warrants... search warrants, arrest warrants...

Something to ask the neighbors about!

Nah, not my business. But when I was going out today a couple of people were talking about a "He". One said, "He thought this guy was a good guy." Still no idea and who knows if I've seen the person or not. But yeah a search warrant or arrest.
