More Hodge Podge

Well Darren has started with the powder coating business. He is coating Shayne's (a friend of ours) work trailer. He sand blasted it on Wednesday which took him all day, and 22 bags of sand, he was absolutely filthy. Thursday he started to put the first coat on while I packed the trailer to go camping. We were planning on leaving that afternoon around 4:00 or so.
I get a phone call at 2:00pm from the doctor I took the girls to on Monday and she said that Annika's test shows that she has bladder infection too and that she would phone the pharmacy and have the prescription ready for me. So okay, I stupidly assumed that she would have done that as soon as she hung up the phone. So I get ready to go, interrupt Darren so he can watch the girls while I run to town thinking I would only be about 20 min. I get to the pharmacy and the pharmacist (Donna) says she didn't get any phone call from the doctor.
I then go to the doctor's office to find out what the hell is going on and she is in with a patient. I waited 20 min. there and then she finally came out and says, "Oh you're fast." Fast!!!??? Just to recap, this was 40 min after she phoned me! Whatever! So she writes the prescription, I thank her and get the hell outta there, head over to the pharmacy, AGAIN, get to the desk and a chick behind the counter says Donna is on lunch. WHAT THE F**K! So I slap the prescription down and tell her to tell Donna to phone me when it's ready. I get home and apologize to Darren for delaying him from getting his work done, and continue packing. I finally get the phone call around 4:00 that her medicine is ready to pick up. What a GONG SHOW! I was so mad I could spit fire.
We finally ended up leaving to go camping around 5:30pm and Darren didn't end up finishing his first coat. But the camping trip was good. Found an awesome spot by Cadomin (south of Hinton) right by the river. Went for a drive around there and found a spot by a coal mine that has hundreds of Big Horn sheep. It was pretty cool to see so many in one area. The area they are in is protected meaning no one can hunt there so that's why there is so many. Smart animals.
I will post pics when I get them developed. I still haven't gotten the girls 3rd birthday pics developed yet. I think I need a digital camera.
Chow!

Sheesh, I think with the "enthusiasm" that you typed this with that you might need to invest in a new keyboard soon!
