mtbcI guess that my new open-coil mattress has now mostly settled. My lower back still often aches in the morning but, I think, not as badly as it did. While putting on my socks I no longer think
I am postponing properly replacing my electric toothbrush. I realized that I ought to do something given that the reason for having one was something about not overbrushing the exposed roots of my teeth since my gums receded so I bought a cheap interim travel toothbrush from China which was flown from Hong Kong to London Heathrow. (My glasses case instead arrived from Germany into East Midlands Airport.) It turns out that the toothbrush is so cheap as to not have the usual pressure-sensing stop feature but with an ultrasonic brush it seems less likely that I will press hard anyway. I shall have to replace it in time because I am not aware of a source of replacement heads.
My travel toothbrush does teach me of one useful feature: it disassembles, including its head, via low-force twist-lock moulding rather than linear push-and-click. That may not suffer as badly from the increasing-friction issue that ended my previous toothbrush's life. I shall carefully scrutinize images of other toothbrushes to try to spot similar in models of prospective replacement toothbrush.
goodness, I must buy a new mattressso I am inclined to chalk that up as a win and turn my attention elsewhere.
