Tonight my hubby and I took my youngest son and his girlfriend and her daughter out to dinner. We went to Brann's which is the same place that hubby and I went to awhile back where I didn't have a decent plate to eat off and had to use one of the little "rolls" plates. Tonight I ordered my own meal (not a 'to share' one like before...hence hubby got a plate and I didn't) so I had my own plate....yippee! I told my son about what happened before and he said I should have asked for another plate.....duh, yeah I coulda but I refused cause it was the principle of the matter!

But tonight I still had a couple complaints. First, the guy brings us rolls and no plates to put them on. I had to ask him for plates. He brings us TWO plates. There are five of us. Luckily, hubby had a small plate under his bowl of soup he could use, and little Alexis didn't really need a plate, and son's girlfriend used her salad plate to put her roll on. OMG, what is it with this restaurant and their plates?? I know times are bad, but wouldn't ya think that a restaurant should at least have enough plates for their customers?? ((and waiter is probably thinking..."what's with this stupid bitch..she has to have a plate for every single thing she eats!!"))

Second complaint,,,,I love to play the Keno and I filled out my slip and handed the waiter guy my five bucks and the slip and he took off with it and I never saw him again....at least not with my player ticket. After about 15 minutes of impatiently waiting and watching the Keno numbers coming up and sitting there with no ticket my son's girlfriend finally went to the bar area and retrieved my ticket for me. Of course, by then two sets of numbers had already been picked that I had totally missed and didn't even have the fun of watching them with my ticket....I mean, that's the point of playing...having your ticket of numbers and watching the numbers coming up on the screen. Well, the first two round of numbers, my ticket was sitting on a bar somewhere. At least I got to watch the last three sets of numbers come up and I did win TWO BUCKS!....yahoooo...!!

I went on Ebay and bought a t-shirt with "KENO!" on the front....it's perfect when I go places with my little dog, Keno...haha

Ok, so yesterday little Mini Sue was still squinting her right eye...then she wasn't squinting...then she was....then she wasn't....then she was. So do I call the vet and make an appointment?? or not?? I called the vet and made an appointment for 10:00 this morning...and I am SO NOT A MORNING PERSON, but I have estate sales to go to so I figured better get her in there early. I got up at 8:00 this morning and she is hardly squinting at all....maybe a little. By 9:00 I was thinking of cancelling the appointment but by then she's squinting more, so I figured..."what the hell"...I really need to have it checked out just in case. So off to the vet she went. The doc could see that she had a superficial 'thingamajig" on her eye but that it was healing nicely. She put some numbing stuff in her eye to make it feel better and told me to keep doing what I've been doing and it'll be fine. And that cost me $69....and tonight she is hardly squinting at all....and laughing at me for being such a paranoid doggy mama.

I went to a couple estate sales today. I have regretted selling my good firm mattress for this "plush" piece of crap since I have had nothing but back pain for the past year and a half since I've had it. I need a firmer mattress. So at this one estate sale they are selling a whole 1940's style bedroom outfit for $695. The mattress set is a Beautyrest FIRM and is exactly what I want...but I don't want or need the whole damn set. So I told them that I only want to buy the mattress set. This set is in like-new condition. I think it was in a spare bedroom. I've looked at Art Van and found the perfect firm mattress and THIS mattress is exactly like the one I was looking at at Art Van. So I want it! I left them my name and phone number if they decide on Sunday to sell it separately. Personally, I think they would make more money selling me the mattress set and then pricing the rest individually. When I left today, it was already at 30% off....tomorrow it will be at 50% off...$350 for the whole bedroom set. I just want the mattress set! I'm hoping that they call me tomorrow.

I worked Friday and I don't go back in until Tuesday and THAT will be my LAST day!! Hoorah!!...no more work til next February!! I got the best damn job in the whole fuckin' world!!!!!!
