Just stuff

I am just going to talk about stuff. I am looking forward to finishing up at work, and starting vacation, even though we do not have any concrete plans for our vacation. I know what I would like to do, but I have to consider my husband and his limitations.

It has been a difficult semester; a lot of student issues that has cause a great deal of stress at work. Students consistently have ignored our instructions and I feel they are not ready to graduate, but it is not my call to make. I cannot believe how this generation feel they must lie, cheat, steal and whine in order to get by. I view this on a daily basis. People call our clinic and feel they are the only people in need of care and we are to drop what we are doing and immediate come to their aid, even though they have neglected their dental care all these years; now they are in extreme pain and it is our duty to help them, NOW !!!!!!!

I am happy we got a lot of junk out of our basement; I could not believe what we had stored down there. It felt so good to purge and rearrange things. The family room is shaping up nicely. I got a reclining love seat down there and once I am finished work, I can get the laundry room together and I will be satisfied with the basement. I want to clean and arrange my kitchen cupboards and finally paint my neglected bathroom. We have been in our house for 7 years this July and have not made any major changes since we have been here.

I miss my family and being able to take part in family functions. I wish my family would visit more, but with the new restrictions and needing a passport, I doubt they will put me on their visitation list. I love having company and making them feel welcome. I have some new recipes I want to try; I love to cook.

I am making dinner for my husband and dad for Father's Day. Our tradition is to have barbecue steak. Therefore we are having striploin steak with grilled peppers and swiss cheese, twice baked potatoes with bacon, green onion and cheddar, romaine salad with red onion, cukes and strawberries;grilled asparagus and corn on the cob, garlic toast and brownie sundaes for dessert. I hope they enjoy it.

that is all for now, I am tired and I need to go watch the hockey game to see the Pittsburgh Penguins win the Stanley cup. Peace out.
