Any misgivings I may have had about quitting my job at Mahnke's vanished today when I saw the look in my son's eyes.
He says to me, "Mom are you going to work today?"
I said, "No, I quit my job."
His face lit up like a Christmas tree.
There are other part time jobs waiting for me. I know that. And I have faith that I will find one soon.
But for now I just want to savor that moment.

Thanks be to Dr. Sellon I am feeling much better now. The tooth is nearly 100% better and the Monday after my wedding I get the tooth taken care of. That will be a joy! No laughing gas, no IV since I am pregnant. I really, really hate dentists but I need to get this tooth fixed so it won't flare up again like it did before. That was misery. I was tempted to do like Tom Hanks did in "Castaway" and just break the damned thing out of my mouth. I'm glad now that I didn't. LOL!
We ordered our wedding cake today. It will be ready Saturday by 11. It is going to be gorgeous!!! We made a trip down to Next Millenium and got some things for the altar. So, I am not quite as nervous as I was earlier. I will actually be relieved when it is over. I was so close to just getting married by a justice of the peace. Again, I am glad that I didn't do that.
I quit my job at Mahnke's. He was just making my life miserable. He was such a bite in the ass to work for. I feel great! I feel like the wieght of the world has been lifted off my shoulders. True, I now have to look for a part time job but at least I don't have to see that mean old toad anymore!!!! Or put up with the sexual comments from certain patients.
