PUUF Daily Journal – Tuesday
Well.. Today started like any other weekday…
6 AM – A L A R M – WAKE UP!!! To which of course I shut off and naturally fall back to sleep only to awaken suddenly 1/2 hour later to begin rushing to not be late for work!
Wake the oldest son up, wash face, wet down the tangled mess of hair, make coffee, get dressed… WAIT! Oldest not up yet?!!! Shake oldest son awake with urgency to get in shower before Dad wakes up!
Son has sore throat… guess he can stay home today.
Ok… now get dressed, add a little make up to face so dark circles don’t show so much, brush teeth, shake hair dry and put into place with a little gel, or some similar hair product.
Is there still time to make lunch? not really but going to anyway, can’t afford to buy…
Make lunch.. the usual… yogurt and pretzels for mid morning snack, some sort of staple food for lunch and ice tea… oh… lets not forget to bring the water bottle and THE most important…. Coffee!
Hi Ho.. Hi Ho… it’s off to work we go! At least I don’t have to battle the parental traffic at school today.
Work… Put the smiley face on while greeting those Top ‘o’ The Morn clients who are waiting at the door when I arrive. After first crazy 30 minutes can sit down to relax, gather thoughts and get down to business. Computer notes, Call Backs, Faxing, Filing, Getting weights, Temps (hopefully the ear temp works or will have to use the dreaded rectal). Spend most of day making sure all those wonderful furry patients are well taken care of… and their parents happy… ahhhh… now THAT is the real work.
Let’s not forget the co-workers… fun times! 🙂 Gossip…. ohhh… so juicy and the laughter that follows… priceless.
1 PM – sit in car and eat mundane lunch (would not be so mundane if did not have to worry about weight gain). Read another installment of Terry Goodkind’s Sword of Truth series… or at least a few chapters.
5 PM – Closing… but can’t go home till the money’s counted… "Show Me The Money"
Now… rather than going home, I had to take a small detour to tend to my furry friend "Chaz"… he’s sooo funny, he waits at the door for me then flops on his side for me to pet him. After a few minutes of this we head to his kitchen so I can give him the much desired c a n n e d food! while he’s enjoying his light meal… I take the time to clean up his litter box, which of course he likes to toss most of the litter outside of the box. That’s ok… I love Chaz and he knows it. 🙂 Before I leave we play with his favorite toy… the flying feathers (which he’s almost destroyed over the past week). Maybe I shouldn’t let him catch it so much 🙂
By a little after 6 pm I arrive home to find oldest Son playing video games and youngest son asleep in his history book. Ok… guess I’m doing the dishes tonight….
