DairyKing's Journal, 26 Sep 12

Another busy day at work today. Had to take off mid-morning to go to the dentist. Had an appointment scheduled for 1:00, but they called and said they had cancellations, and wanted to know if I could come in early. So, I rearranged my schedule and drove 45 minutes over there, spent 2 hrs in the chair, and drove 45 minutes back to work. Had to prep my tooth for a cap, so they did a lot of drilling, taking impressions, and who knows what all, before putting on a temporary cap, and ordering a permanent one, which I will have to go back on the 10th of October to get. I didn't expect it to take 2 hours, but the tooth was cracked; it probably would have taken that long anyway; they are really good there, and I never experience any pain with the shots or the process.

Spent most of the day preparing for my presentation on courage. Did I mention that I got volunteered or requested (depending on who you ask) to give a presentations to all the leaders in our facility on courage. My boss told me I got chosen because of my military background and outspokenness. In other words, I have a big mouth. Oh well, I told them I would be glad to do it. The boss was kind of pressing me to find out what approach I was going to take. I told him that the company is very good about telling leaders that they need to stand up and be accountable, and hold people accountable, take ownership of decisions, be passionate, and be courageous in dealing with the tough situations. But they never tell a person, who might have been meek, mild, mellow and magnanimous all their life, how to just wake up one day and be courageous. So, I'm going to show them how to do that.

Had vegetable soup for lunch again today, but . . . steak wrapped with bacon, fried potatoes, and green peas for supper! Going to freeze the rest of the vegetable soup. Don't get me wrong; her vegetable soup is great, but I needed steak and potatoes. Well, anyway, that's enough rhetoric for one night. Hope all is well with my fellow FS Warriors. Have a good evening, and a better day tomorrow. Toodles!

Your presentation sounds, 'right on the button' and very inspirational. Hope it goes well :-)

Sorry about your tooth - 2 hours is a long time to sit in one spot - especially if you don't want to be there to begin with. But it is nice that they are using you more at work - can't have you bored there!

DK you ideas for your speech are right on! Big mouth? You? Nawwwwwww! You just tell it like it is. My DH is the same way. He is a shy guy in general but will speak up in a heart beat if things aren't right. Can't wait to hear how it all goes. I love vegetable soup but you have to freeze it at some point cause it does get monotonous. LOL! HUGS!
