And today is October Eleven,
It has been over a week since I have written; 11 days have flown by,
Been a difficult week, had headaches, long hours at work, and got some news
that made me cry.
I will attempt to stay on task and not switch topics, in mid thought,
And today is not hot,
It is 71 degrees, from what we are told,
And finally, the Guest rooms are complete today every room will be sold,
For the next 3 weeks, all will be working, doing overtime, including me,
So, now, is a great time to compose a Kdd.
I am not at the office taking calls, phones are not ringing,
So, a dose to you I am able to be bringing
And have no migraines, none at all, and the pain in my arm is diminished,
And Darrell and I will go to Red Lobster, when this is finished,
Hopefully, I wil complete this in 30 minutes? I need to get ready for our
Date,
So, maybe, this will have to wait?
Before, it can be posted to my blog? to my site?
If not before dinner, will be later tonight.
As stated, the Guest rooms are finally renovated,
And I am sure, the Guests are elated?
They will not have to hear all the noise, deal with construction, hear all
the power tools,
Maybe, its only quiet out by the pools,
The Spa, or off the property,
And for us employees happy we will be,
Don't have to hear all that racquet, clatter,
And some of the shrimp we wil get will be dipped in batter.
We were running the regular operations, serving our guests,
Yet also, renovating the guest's rooms and one ballroom, coordinating it
all, so, it wouldn't affect their rest,
Their sleep as much as we could,
However, the environment for some, was never good,
Not conducive to stay,
Whether you're at work or play
Its human nature, can't please everyone, someone wil be disappointed and
dissatisfied,
And later in this dose, you will fine out why I cried,
What made me sad?
And understand what kind of week I had,
Why a KDD, I did not send,
And how are you, my friend?
This Guest room renovation began in April, that long ago,
And this weather is beautiful, sunny, and the wind does blow.
I also said, I had migraines this week, more then one
So, it wasn't at all fun,
I am glad I can't see, when, I have a migraine,
Because, hurts my brain,
And I can't think, don't like to hear any clamber
And feels as if someone is hitting me with a hammer
And I need quiet, icepack and rest,
And often, nothing I want to digest,
To eat,
Noone I want to chat with, go out and meet
Want time for my self, be alone,
Not be on the computer, watch TV or be on the phone
Those of you who do not suffer from them, don't know what it is like, can't
relate,
And have all of you watched the Debates?
Twenty Four days till the Election, Darrell and I will try to vote ahead of
time
And soon, we will leave to go dine,
I know me. I knew, I wouldn't be done with this dose of mine. lol
That, it wouldn't be completed in time,
Since, I have much to say, I have only just begun
A few subjects, not just one,
, I want to mention since, it has been over a week, and the creativity has
been stirred
In my mind, want to tell you what has occurred,
Has transpired,
Now, under the wire,
Need to get in gear, get ready to go have our dinner date,
Will not be back late,
In a few hours, after 8 or so, this I will resume, I will
And shrimp, we will get our fill,
Take care and I will be back! For you all it may be one session?
And what do you think, about this Recession?
About what happened yesterday? On Wall Street? The Stock Market did
basically crash
And, perhaps, we will have potatoes mashed?
Definitely shrimp, in variations
And do you watch the news stations
Like Fox or CNN? On cable?
And the Economy is not at all stable,
Not at all secure, safe and sound,
And I am sure, we both will eat more then a pound?
Of shrimp? Probably so?
And very soon, we will go
Our ride will be hear, in a few,
And not sure when this will be through. Lol
Comment To my posts, if you wish to O pine,
The length of your comment does not matter, or the subject, it all will be
fine,
Just don't send me spam, and it does not necessarily have to be pithy,
alright?
Just write,
If you want. and have something to say,
And hope well, is going your day?
We are starving,
And soon, many of us will be carving,
A turkey or a ham, and noshing on a lot of yummy stuff, spending time with
family and friends, enjoying our time together, on the Holiday,
At Thanksgiving time, giving thanks,
And bankrupt are many of the Banks,
Yet, I suppose, the government does have to bail,
And our ride is here to take us to Scottsdale
The restaurant is halfway between home and work,
And I wonder how many do lurk?
And just visit my site and don't say a word? probably most? Or almost all?
And it is definitely fall.
At 8 o'clock, its 67, low 51 tonight
And already 3 pages I did write.
I can see this is going to be several pages, before it's done?
And tomorrow the high will be79 and the low 51.
So, we had a great time at Red Lobster, we ate all we can eat,
Had lots of shrimp, and nothing sweet,
The shrimp came with two sides and shrimp, was prepared in variations4,
not just 2,
And we were full when we were through.
We both began with a large pineacalada and biscuits tasty and hot,
And soon our entrees they bought,
Had a Cesar salad and Darrell soup, Potatoes with bacon
And when we finished that, it was taken,
And we then were served our shrimp, Darrell had double fried,
And two I wanted to try, I had one Alfredo shrimp and the other coconut,
I Had baked potato and fries Darrell did get.
We ordered more coconut shrimp , and took it to go,
Couldn't eat anymore you know?
We were full, not quite stuffed to the gills, but almost bloated like a fish
And enormous was our dish,
It was more like a platter about 4 or 5 times the size that it should be,
It was certainly enough for Darrell and me
There was a large party, who arrived after us, while, we were still sitting
there,
And the manager, information he did share
With their group, the menu items and the promotion they had awhile back,
Their was a customer, shrimp they did attack,
Guess, this man ate 370 shrimp scampi from what the manager did say,
Wondered if he did not eat for an day,
Or more? Wow, that would make me ill
After a couple dozen, I had my fill.
Now,its 9;08,
And, another reason as to why I wasn't doing that great
Some bad news we did receive, from our Very close and dear friend Jeff,
about his Jascinda, his dog from the Seeing Eye
I was not really surprised, yet, it did make me upset and cry
Jascinda has been ill for awhile, for the last few months or so,
Often, to the vet, she did go,
Maybe, July?, orAugust? Not sure when? She was having problems they were not
sure what was the matter?
But she was having problems with her bladder
Had chronic Urinary Tract infections and with her Immune system too,
Many tests they had to do
Lab work, and urine analysis, several types of tests,
And pills to digest.
They did discover that she had valley Fever, a common desert Respiratory
problem here in our state. humans can also get this, I may have had it
back in 2,001?,
Two years after I moved to the Valley of the sun?
I was getting chronic bronchitis and pneumonia as well,
Thought from our Guests,it was my environment, from working at the Hotel?
Anyway, Little Cinda, it is attacking her bodynotjust her immunity, but he
spine,
She isn't fine,
Just recently, they realized, she is going blind, losing her sight,
And so, Jeff made the decision to retire her, found this out Wednesday
night.
Cinda is almost 8 years old and now legally blind and is taking a form of
Pred forte 3 times a day
She is unable to guide, but she can certainly play.
Jeff and Keri will have to give her up for adoption, I know a good person
he will find,
That the individual or family will be caring, loving and kind,
And treat Cinda well, and have the resources to handle these health issues
This all made me cry I needed some tissues
These dogs are like our children like little people of ours,
They are with us for several hours,
Numerous of years
Are with us through the tears, the laughter and
Bring us safety, security, happiness and joy, very little sorrow
Here today, and tomorrow
Are with us at work, school and at home,
Not far from us they roam,
Our with us at Restaurants, sporting Events, pools, parks when we are
playing games,
We never forget the pup, their personality and name.
Love truly does lead the way,
In our hearts they do stay
Long after, they retire, and pass away; we remember them all, every day
When, they get ill or grown into old age, then, onto rainbow heaven
We don't forget, the days before they were seven,
When they were a young pup Frisky and filled with spunk, a bundle of energy,
And in Harness, they guided us, those of us who can't see,
We were a team, a partnership, a companion and friend
I am starting to cry, so, soon, this I must end.
I will tell you more about Cinda and her situation as things transpire, as
the days pass
And I wanted to tell you about how my sister is, who lives in mass
I heard from Tara recently by e-mail, they are all fine,
Not much time,
She has these days, a graduate Student, a Mom, a wife and a Chauffeur, doesn't
have any time for herself
But, I think, all are in good health?
Tara and Bob, just had their 19 th Wedding Anniversary the other day,
October Eight,
And Mary Beth and Todd, 7 years, October 7 Th, was their date,
The same week, Dougie I did get October 1, was that day,
And Mary Beth and Todd, My other sister, live an hour or so away,
And Jeff and Keri's 20 th Anniversary will be Wednesday October fifteen,
And my Niece Katie will be the Queen,
In the play," Sleeping Beauty", Her Brother Bobby, Rows, does Crew,
And Katie and Jo, 3 days a week, Horseback riding they do,
And Jo Anna is on the Field Hockey Team, this month it will all end
And marry Beth and Todd and their Girls are going to Disney World, not with
friends,
Rather, with Todd's Folks, they are taking them on a vacation all expenses
paid
And next year, Emma will be in Kindergarten, not the first Grade,
And Marin is in pre-school, they both like it, have fun,
And think, I will read, when this is done
I began reading "Pandora's Daughter" by Iris Johannsen, My Jaws
screenreader,butchers her name,
And do you all, think this KDD is lame?
Or just way too long it does seem?
And outside just now, I heard a couple College Guys scream
They sounded like girls, and quickly they were quiet, lol
Very good!, and the day after tomorrow, I return to Hyatt
Will work all week, not off again till Saturday October Eighteen,
So, not sure next, when a dose will be seen?
When you all hear from me?
Until then, a great week for you hope it will be.
