At our staff meeting today, we talked about things going on in the office and what needs to be done better. I sure hope everyone listened. In addition to a great morning, I had a solid afternoon as well. My massage schedule was pretty lacking early in the day, but I was able to call some of my patients that hadn't been in for a while and fill in a couple gaps. I wound up with 3 out of 4 possible massages -- Not bad at all. I always try to keep a mental list of people needing to get in, so that when I have a slow day I can call them and fill up the empty spots. It works great for both of us. They get an appointment on short notice, and I have a full schedule.
Sammie and I decided that Mexican sounded REALLY good, so we made a trip to Mi Pueblo after work for Mexican and Strawberry Daiquiri's. God, it was fantastic! We always eat entirely too much food, but it's so delicious, you just can't stop. I have a ton of leftovers for lunch tomorrow. I love, love, love my time with Sammie. She is one of my dearest friends. When we go out, we usually talk for a couple hours -- I couldn't ask for a better friend or co-worker! The worst thing about eating out is always the drive home afterwards -- You just can't get comfortable, and 25 miles is a long way to be that miserable. First thing I did when I got home?? Let Dixie out of her kennel (She is doing so much better in it; much less freaking out when she is left by herself). The second thing?? Put on my favorite sweatpants, which happen to be Tim's -- Ahhhhh, so much better!
Our Drinks! Don't they look yummy! I stole this picture from Sammie, but I don't think she will mind.
Now, I'm sitting on the couch and not planning on moving til bedtime. The only productive thing I did when I got home was clean Chuck's litter box -- I swear I have never met a cat who poops as much as he does. And it never fails -- He always USES the litter box WHILE I'm trying to clean it. It's so irritating!! I have to stop cleaning so he can finish his business; like he couldn't wait 30 seconds for me to be done. UGH! He is by far the strangest cat I have EVER seen. He loves water (we had shower time again this morning, and he went fishing in the bathroom sink while I was brushing my teeth). He beats up on the dog (But, they sleep together -- Now, that's a love / hate relationship). And, he chases his tail. The only real cat-like thing he does is catch mice. Incidentally, he does that very well; there was a headless mouse skeleton in the basement when I was down there earlier. I bet that was a slow, agonizing death. I guess I can stand the weirdness if he keeps the mice out of the house. Dirty little things! I wonder if the mice have a perimeter set up around the house -- Do they tell each other, "Don't go to that house. The devil lives there, and he will torture you then eat you!"? He could be a super-hero -- Chuck, the Mouse Slayer.
I really needed to go to Wal-Mart after work tonight, but I chickened out -- I can do it tomorrow on my lunch break. The thought of ruining such a good day with a trip to Wal-Mart was too much to bear. If I can, I will always put off that job until the next day. It is my LEAST favorite place to go -- Truly an awful chore.
Time for bed I think -- Or at least, time to lay in bed, trying to sleep, while Dixie and Chuck have their own version of a demo derby on our bed. It's ridiculous! Why do they have to be such night owls? Maybe I will read for a little while. That sounds like a very good idea. Don't mind if I do. The book I am reading (Dragonfly in Amber by Diana Gabaldon) just keeps getting better and better! Tomorrow is going to be another good day! :^D
