Bell Canada

We've been having problems with our phone lines ever since we got hoked up to sympatico. At first, once in a while if we were on the phone we could hear the modem, as if it was connecting. I phone Bell Canada and ask them to come out to check it out. The lady informs me that it will cost 100$ if the problem is at my end. I think that's dumb. Any way she proceeds to tell about this insurance that I can get. It will cost 10$ a month. This will cover any thing that bell has to do,, either if it's on my property in or out. Me being the idiot I am said yes. So they come and look and there is nothing wrong with the phone lines, they tell me to add more filters to the line. A few more months go buy and now our answering machine isn't working. If someone phoned us( well not like family phone us that often) we can't hear there message.

Today I phone about the problem and guess what they tell me and a filter to the machine. After asking for a new answering machine for Christmas and getting one I find out by adding a filter there was nothing wrong to begin with. I could of ask for something else. Oh well.

A Day Off

I'm finally on days off. I thought going back to McDonald would be easy. Well It's not. The owner/operator thinks that the Mgr's shouldn't get a break. So I'm on my feet 81/2 hrs with no break and sometimes well most of the time I don't even get to eat. On Saturday we were so busy. It was like it was Christmas. I work at the Wal Mart McDonalds. I was the opening manager and the store manager was the 10-6 well she comes in and at that time we weren't busy so she decides without asking if I'm ok with it, she sends 2 people home BEFORE LUNCH. We all know never send any one home early until after lunch. Well We got killed. Janet(store manager) was getting a little fustrated and was getting really snappy at us. I guess we weren't fast enough for her in the back. It was me and another person and I also had a new guy so he doesn't count. I was doing the best that I could with what I had and she could of cared less. Can't wait to hear from Ontario health. Well I'm off to go do some shopping.

Tammi Who?

When we were thinking about where to go for Dave's next( coming out of Pelican) post we were thinking of spots where we would see eachother more. Well it turns out once again that I don't count. Sheri went to Sudbury this weekend so I thought we could spend some quality time together, maybe dinner and a movie well it turns out NOT. Dave said yest to some over time. The money is nice since we now have the t.v. to pay for but we don't get to be alone very often since Sheri is still living with us. Life sucks.

Is There such a thing as brushing your teeth too much?

Well I went to the dentist last week and was told that I brush my teeth too much. I also have my first cavity. Make sense? I now hate going to the dentist. I use to like going since I would only spend a little time in the chair, and I used to like it when the dentist would say whow nice teeth see you in 6 months. Not no more. I have to brush less and floss more they say. So how did I get my first cavity at 30? I wonder if I even had one to begin with. Now I'm typing this with a frozen jaw. Well I'm off to see my Uncle. Good news Sheri has a new job.

The Big Purchase

You were all correct. It is our big screen Thai Kim good idea about another puppy. We both want another, but we will wait until we move to a bigger house. I'll get Dave to post the pic for those who can't come and visit. The t.v. is sitting in my livingroom on my dining table until the renovations are done.

SWITCHING OVER MY PARAMEDIC
Just wanted to let everybody know that I finely got all my documents from Saskatchewan and I can know hand them in to Ontario Health. I will be mailing them today. Have no idea how long it will take to get a reply. It say I will hear back from them as soon as possible in writing. No phone call just in writing. If they say yes then I can start writting the millions of exams. If I pass them I get to write the provincial exam and that big baby will cost me 250$ each try. Can't wait. I love my job.Well the driving fast part with the lights and siren going:) Just kidding that part is cool. Well I'm off to McDonald land to make some cash.

Short Visit
Last night waited patiently for Kim and Steve to show up. They arrived shortly before 10pm and left 5 - 10 min later. Was hoping they would of stayed a little longer. I forgot to give them Gordies little gift. We bought him a baseball cap. It's the cutest thing ever. He will look more adorable in it. We hope that after our reno's are done they come back for a visit. Even if it's only a day trip. I'm waiting for the contractor to show up. We know he's coming and he's the worst guy for time. I just want my house back in order and yes I want to watch t.v downstairs on our new t.v.(still have to go buy it) Well that's all for now.

STUPID PEOPLE
Today I had to open. I got up at 6am, got ready to leave at 6:30am. I open the fdoor and guess what I see. SNOW and lots of it. The drive to work only take 15 min at the most. Not this morning, 30 min. Anyway the shift went by fast since it was busy. Sheri was nice enough to shovel both driveways(she parks next door). SHe got lucky and the snow plow went by before she started. Well she realized once she got outside that the dumb ass next door was parked on the side of the street so the snowplow had to go around him. Leaving a pile of snow in frount of my driveway but in the middle of the street. Therefore making my life hell. I had a hard time with the blazer in 4x4 getting into my driveway. KNowing that I had a hard time and that the next time the snowpolw comes by I will be the lucky one having to shovel it cause of the dumb ass next door. I say to myself I'll go remove it. Well it weights a fucking tone and theres lots. You would think he would come out a shovel since it was his dumb ass truck parked on the side. NOT. Anyway managed to do some and Dave can actually drive in tomorrow with the toyota without scrapping the bottom of the car. That's my day.

Adventure Of The Day
Today Sheri and I went to the big city of Toronto. Sheri had an interview. We started by driving to Yorkdale then we hopped on the Subway. We had to make our way to St-Andrew's station. Subway's are not my thing. They are creepy and dirty but we got to our destination in one piece. Sheri had her interview and then we were back on the Subway and back in her car and back on the 401 to Innisfil. We get home and I'm excited since I'm going to have my bathroom done. Well guess what it's not done. The tiles are not dry enough so no toilet yet. Steve(contrator) informs me that the 500$ check I gave will not cover everything I need for the bathroom. Not a biggy we were prepared for that. The bad news is that Home Depot in Barrie doesn't have my mirror that I picked out or my vanity lights. Now I'm pissed off. This Home Depot SUCKS. I had to go to Sudbury for a couple of my pot lights since they were also out of them. I either have to pick out a new mirror and vanity light or drive to a different homedepot. WEll the good news is we will be able to watch t.v in my rec room by next weekend. Can't wait. Oh I guess we need a t.v first.

Just found out Dave isn't coming home tonight. Can't wait till this election is over. Miss you Dave. Hurry home.

Tam's Thoughts

I've decieded to start my own blog. This way people will know I'm still around. Today was my day off. Had a few things to do around the house. I finally have all the documents I need to start the long process of switching over my paramedic certification. WEll that is until I go looking for the papers. They are not where I've left them. I remember having them on the kitchen table, then I remember Dave cleaned the table off. Since he's on the road God only knows where he is I start to panic. I look everywhere turning the house upside down. I finally lose it and page Cst Grant. First page and no call back. I keep looking for the papers and thinking to myself what am I going to do. I page him a second time. Phone rings. It's Dave. Fustrated I let him have it. I ask him where the papers are and he says to me. I don't know but do you need them now.? I'm at work and can't think of where I put them at this moment. I say Yes I need them I want to mail them out and get it moving. Anyway I finally found them I know I need to say sorry to Dave but I sometimes wish he would take my future serious. He did pay for it and i did work really hard for it and I am entilled to work and help pay for things. McDonald's is just temporary. I know it's job and it is paying for our T.V. Well that's all for now
