Hi Friends~
I just wanted to say I'm sorry for the grumpy mood
I am in today.
Many of my posts were edged in sarcasm and I probably
should have just stayed away from the threads.
Ageless has been in such a good mood around here-
with so much love "happenin",
I hate to have my grumbly mood bring anyone down.
So, if you are feeling cheery-
you might not want to read this post.
Danger! Danger!
Click out now!
I try to keep my spirits up-
but I got some news today that really bums me.
My dentist told me I need yet, another danged root canal.
Grrrrrrr!
You see, my teeth are whacked because of the
physical abuse that occured to me in my 20's.
You get your jaw cracked and your teeth knocked
around- it does some major damage,
and much of that damage occurs later in the years.
My teeth look okay, but they are not.
The damage was done from the inside out-
from the roots and in the jaw.
I've been dealing with this pain and the hassel
of going to the dentist for awhile now.
Plus there is a thread at Ageless dealing with abuse,
of which I have been posting,
and it brings a lot of the pain from those terrible years
back to me.
Plus this teeth thing,
I have a ton of bitterness that is hard to shed at times.
Plus I started a new job,
cooking for a catering company and I really like it.
I haven't been there long,
but the owner and the crew I work with are super.
Well, except one gal,
and she started the same time as I did.
We are both new.
I doubt she will be there long because of what
happened to me yesterday.
I'll explain:
She leaves a half hour after I get on shift.
Her job is to slice meats, prep veggies and things like that,
while my job is more of the main cooking and baking.
Anyway, she is one of these "know it all" people
that talks constantly about what a talented Chef she
is and goes on and on about all the great places she has
worked, etc..etc...
As a matter of fact, her mouth is always working over-time
instead of her working!
Well, she had left her shift and I went over to wash up a rondo-
which is a big "cooking pot" and the pot sink was filled
up with dirty dish water and the slicer that she had
dismantled and never fully cleaned or put back together,
which is supposed to be done before she leaves shift.
I reach in to do it for her, as this thing is in the darn way,
and I slice the HE** out of my right hand.
She had put the BLADE in the dirty water in the pot sink!
Any good Chef or cook knows you DO NOT
put any kind of blade or knife in the pot sink!
Thank God it was my right hand, as I am left handed.
But, it was a gusher and I got blood everywhere.
Not to mention it hurt like a MoFo!
46 stitches and now I can't work.
That's kinda why I've been hanging around Ageless a lot.
Can't work and have these lovely pain pills that I am
taking for my teeth and hand.
The catering company is paying for it all..
and I won't be fired or anything, but it sure made me mad.
This gal is such a DITZ!
They better let her go as I don't want to work with her anymore!
It hurts a little to type if I use both hands.
The cut went across my palm from my index finger down
to about where my wrist starts.
A palm reader will have a lot fun "reading my future" after I heal up from this!
I never realised that I could type so well with just my left either!
LOL
So anyway,
I thought maybe I should explain why my mood has
been so sarcastic.
I do hope I have not offended any of you.
I'll do better...promise.
It hasn't stopped me from still planning a nice
Valentine's Ball for you all.
As a matter of fact, I am working on that tonight
as these pills make it so I don't sleep all that great.
I really am happy for all you folks who are
"Lucky In Love"!!
I don't want to "rain on anyone's parade!"
May your love last forever and ever!
:p
