Teeth!!!

Well, it's official.... I no longer have any wisdom (teeth) left. Wednesday I went under the knife and had the final two removed. They were under the gums so I opted to sleep through the process. All I remember from the surgery is the Dr. talking non stop before (to see if I was awake). During I hazily recall him saying, "Aww, isn't she cute, she snores like my 8 year old daughter". Then, as if I were hypnotized, he said "Okay, you can wake up now", and I DID!!! How weird is that.
I was soooo hungry & thirsty due to the fact that I couldn't eat or drink for 8 hours before the surgery. I really, really, really wanted to eat some eggs as soon as I got home (nice & soft, easy to eat). So as we walked through the door my Mommy made me a couple of eggs (Jeremy was at work already), I tried so hard to eat them......... However, when you have absolutely no feeling in your tongue, lips, mouth area, it is very difficult to know if you are chewing anything. After a few minutes of trying I gave up & went to bed, passed out, and woke up about 2 1/2 hours later. Just in time to say good night to the boys. Thank God my mom stayed for a "sleepover". I tried eating my eggs again around 9:30 pm, still no feeling in the mouth area. I was a little freaked out how long the freezing was lasting. Went to bed again & slept until Jeremy got home after 2:00am. By then the freezing was all gone & I had the most glorious eggs in the whole entire world!!!! I almost heard the angels singing.
The next day I was relieved that I only had swelling, looked like Cojo with the big jowels going on. And now, I'm sad to report that there is some bruising going on. I feel like wearing a big scarf around my face instead of looking like a fight victim. Thank goodness for Ice Packs, painkillers & family, otherwise I don't think this would have gone as well as it has.
Can't wait to see what next week brings!!!!

Buttons

Well my worst fears have surfaced about our girl, we found a lump in her throat today, so I guess the inevitable is here, I dont want to take her in, oh boy.
She is still eating and playing and doing all her regular stuff, but is obviously losing weight and her coat is started to look tattered, and with cats you cant tell if they are in pain or not, going to do all we can for the old girl, but fearing the worst.

Gotta love animals

So today, im in the line up at the car wash when I notice a prairie dog, so I started watching (had a half hour line up) so Randy Andy, as I named him was racing around like a madman, then I noticed there where tooooooons of prairie dogs, so good ol Randy had to check out everyone, he didn't care if they were male female or indifferent, he was giving them all a try lol, he would approach them chirping like a bird and then go in for the kill, the "targets" would stand on there hind legs and box with him, either they were female and said " get a life buddy I just woke up" or male saying " you moron" either way it was a delight to watch, he would take off across the field with his tail in the air and almost do flips when he saw a "prospect" just the cutest thing, and just yesterday on breakfast tv, they were saying Prairie dogs are a nuisance, give me a break, they keep to themselves, dont wreck lawns like moles, and provided me with a ton of entertainment, and on the one day I dont have my camera with me....sigh.
Im telling ya, it was wonderful :)

Could I have not picked a boring job??

So work today, first I was to be working with a casual employee who I have never worked with before, her name is Judi and she is "Caitlin" but 20 years older, very sweet, but they told me she has had the odd panic attack, so we opened the doors at 11am and within 15 minutes were packed out, I noticed Judi take off for the kitchen, so went after her and sure enough she is having a panic attack along with hyperventalating, I sat her down, got her face in a paper bag and went back out to face the masses ALONE, I wallked out on to the floor and I hear a lady say "Wilf are you ok" I turned to look and the man has his head down on the table, I ran over and realized that Wilf is having a full blown heart attack, OH NO...........time for my panic attack lol, this poor man was gasping holding his chest and was a horrid grey colour with eyes closed, now his wife starts to panic, arrrrrgh, I then ran to the phone dialed security and asked for an ambulance and any store medical staff we may have on duty, I went back to Wilf, he now looks worse and has a very weak pulse, I asked around me if there were any medical staff in the restaurant but every one stared at me like they were watching a movie, great, finally Darren showed up and took over, he has had paramedic training, thank god, and then shortly after Edmontons "calendar" firemen showed up, and stabalized him until the paramedics came, whew what a day, at this point I remember poor Judi in the kitchen, thankfully she is looking alot better and came back on the floor once I promised that I would take care of everything else if she just looked after the small 5 table section, needless to say I closed the friggin place an hour early, cleaned up and bought a 6 pack on the way home!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh and Calendar firemen!!!! oh my god, I may have been busy but not to busy to notice that they were all "tens" haha, welcome to my world ;)
Hey Joanne is your net down again?? our scrabble is almost done and I am waxing your but dont forget hehehehe.

Go ahead make my day!!

I just have to tell you about work on Saturday, crazy crazy busy day, we didn't stop running (literally) for 5 or 6 hours straight, just two of us on, full restaurant!!! People can see that there are at least 100 people seated and yet you bring there food to them and they snotily say, oh you found the kitchen, or did the chicken lay any eggs yet, comments that make you want to push them off there chair and say, look asshole you get up and try this, anyhow, things finally started to wind down and I had a table with 3 older ladies and another table with 2 ladies, I started having a little fun with them, like saying things like, forget the salad as a side its Saturday, fries all around girls and then dessert, anyhow you get the jist.
So finally Lucy and I get to start our clean up and these girls stayed quite awhile chatting and drinking coffee, as it was both tables got up to leave at the same time and went to cash, Lucy was ringing them through and called me over, the one old lady came over to me gave me a huge hug and said all 5 of them were standing talking at cash about what a wonderful lady I am, she then put $10 in my hand and said I cant wait to see you again, they all agreed and said there goodbyes, my moral of the story is, no matter how bad and miserable my day was, it took a couple of people to put a smile on my face and make me forget all the negative, thanks girls :)
