what to do?

[SwampG8r]

i just finished the last of 96 cupcakes and 24 blueberry tarts
they are for my wifes open house tomorrow
it is a victory lap she is taking sponsored by our local chamber of commerce
she is a nurse midwife/gynocologist who opened her practice last year.she was tired of other people making the rules for her.
she has always acted as patient advocate and that sometimes goes against corporate policy.she wanted to offer the women of our county an alternative to high speed modern medicine,a place where women could come on their shedules and receive the level of personal attention that every consumer should demand.a place where they would be heard and where they would be spoken to.
so we put it all out there in the worst economy since the early 70s.there were days and weeks when the only one saying it was a winner was me.there were days when she was sure it would drag us under but we always found a way to make it one more month.and then something started to happen.the few patients she started with told their friends,brought their daughters.and some brought their moms.old patients of my wife in a previous practice learned she was open and started booking appointments.one day she saw a patient who turned out to be a dr of womens physical therapy and she joined my wifes practice.they have the only womens physical therapy specialist practicing in central florida.
another day another nurse midwife came in and basically hired herself doubling the hrs the clinic is in service.
so they are now booked solid and are going to begin offering OB services within a year.
i was right it is a winner
and tommorrow is the open house.she has had rsvps from maine.
i have cut veggies enough for 3 platters
i have fruit enough for 2 platters and one skewer display
i have cheese and crackers
they are having hot finger food donated by a local restaurant (owners wife is a patient off subject but just to note living with a womens health provider has proven to me that you chicks all stick together like glue)
local paper says they will be there
and the above baked goods i worked on since 10 this morning

so here is my problem thats like a square yard of stuff and im tired and my dumbass dog has been waiting for me to pass out
if i sleep on the couch she wont screw with it and i have a comfy couch but still its not my awesome heated waterbed
if i make her go in the bedroom she wont lay down and she has a doggy door so she is used to going where she wants when she wants
i am leaning towards making her stay in the bedroom

1. ok first,

I read that as you ATE the 96 cupcakes and 24 blueberry tarts and I thought we were in LeftyFingerPop or MiddleFingerMom territory. :rofl:

Then I realized you were a fucking saint and your wife it the COOLEST.

Only THEN did I realize you need to lock that dog up!


OMG you and your wife ROCK!! thank you both.

How about tying the dog up? I dunno.

But what I really want to say:

BIGGO CONGRATS TO YOU AND YOUR WIFE FOR NEVER HAVING GIVEN UP!

That is just awesome!

Enjoy your open house tomorrow, and I know you will...

That is just majorly good news!

5. i am not a 'people"person

i have a tendency to speak infiltered and it can be "entertaining'
i am glad i have a lot of food to do that will keep me "manageable"
watch for the pics

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. I will watch for them!

I have class tomorrow night, but I'll be home by this time, and I will most definitely look...

[MiddleFingerMom]

...and in the morning, when you come out and there are
only two cupcakes and one tart left... I will just
glance and nod at the dog while tapping the side of my
nose with my finger.

7. google

9. If those goodies would fit in a cold oven, think about storing them there overnight. (eom)

[SwampG8r]

13. if only

they are in a gigantic tray and im afraid to mess with them anymore they look good and any further contact will be not good

10. i admit i'm tired--really tired, so i skimmed what you wrote

"if i sleep on the couch she wont screw with it and i have a comfy couch but still its not my awesome heated waterbed
if i make her go in the bedroom she wont lay down and she has a doggy door so she is used to going where she wants when she wants
i am leaning towards making her stay in the bedroom"

and i'm wondering:

are you talking about your wife?

[SwampG8r]

12. no the damn dog

my wife is doing deliveries tonight in the next county for their health dept
the dog wont act up if she is here
they loooooooove each other so the dog only acts stupid around me
