Daisy and I went to the vet yesterday. She weighs a whopping 1.75 lbs at 9 weeks old. She was due for her next round of puppy shots so we went ahead and did that. She goes again on December 1st for her 12 wk shots. But she is a healthy puppy! I REALLY liked the vet, too. He has his home and cell numbers on his business cards in case of an emergency.

Dewayne and I have been talking about putting her through the 4 trainings offered at Petsmart. If you complete the 4th training, she gets the same certification as a service dog and can go into any hotel, restaurant, store, etc… and they can’t make her leave. We could even take her to hospitals and let her visit patients. I thought that would be the neatest part. We will have to see. The only thing stopping us is we don’t have a Petsmart in Odessa, it’s in Midland. Each class is one night a week for eight weeks. It is just hard to commit to that with so much going on. We already paid for a potty training class this Friday and I am going to have to cancel.

I was asked to join our safety committee here at work. I will hold the title of “Scribe” which also handles the treasury and secretarial duties. I think it will be fun. I will get a few overtime hours each month also. The shop guys around here are like kids! They have to be bribed to do their job. They get donuts every week they don’t have a recordable incident and get a “food reward” every month that they have zero recordable incidents. Today was food reward day and I had to go get NINTY burritos. That will also be my responsibility on the committee. One of the shop guys had Ruben call Teresa and ask where their food was and I informed Ruben after I am on the committee, if ANYONE ever calls me and asks where their food is, they will not get any.

Everyone needs Office 2007. The other day, I was typing a guy’s address and it is San Clemente, CA. The street name was Spanish also. After that, I noticed all my words were underlined in red like they were misspelled. Technically, they were. Word automatically switched my language to Spanish and did spell check on my words. The Spanish ones were correct but all the English words were wrong. Technology is AWESOME!
