The Story of my Thursday

[Parr8hed]

Go to work a little later.  (08:30) because I am only treating one patient.  This made me happy.  He is positive, but has been discharged from hospital.  He came in with a fever.  This makes me nervous. 

So I go home to take Em to her private hitting lesson.  This makes me slightly nervous, but it's a very well controlled environment.  This makes me feel better. 

Get a call that my freezer went TU.  This makes me angry.  We had beef in there.  Good beef.

It was a pretty rough day.  Emmy was very upset because this was the official day that school was cancelled for the year.  This means no school ball, and probably no little league.  Probably no trip to the world series. 

A guy can only take so much.  This made me feel mentally exhausted. 

But today is a good day.  I am going to get a new freezer.  This makes me happy.  We saved some of the beef.  This makes me happy too.  I have buddies that raise cows.  This makes me happy too.  G will race again, emmy will play again.  This makes me happiest.

Didn’t you buy that freezer not too long ago after the old one got unplugged and all the meat rotted?

Same freezer.  It didn't get unplugged, It blew a breaker because a possum bit it.  I managed to save the freezer.  That's prob been 10 years?  Anyways, it is about 40 years old I would guess.  It was due.  Just shitty timing.

Ten years? My how time flies.

The rotting smell was probably the possum.  Luckily, when my went bad a year ago, a buddy had a lot of spare freezer space that we were able to use to save the meat.  Yes, I gave him steaks, etc. in return for his help.  Glad your Friday was better than Thursday.
