It was quite the "Thankful Thursday" just two days ago:
- I had my gastroenterologist appointment right after my first shift at they Y. Sweet WOMAN - if I'm going to that end, I'm going to a woman! She agreed with me - diarrhea is annoying, but mine is regular and not exactly bothersome. So she tested me for celiac disease and I'm waiting for the results. Thankfully, I can live with it (diarrhea) and if it comes with a diagnosis, deal with it.
- From the doctor, I returned to the Y to deck manage for the evening session. The first thing I was thankful for was Becky. Veronica was ill and I didn't have to get in the water for her because Becky did!
- The second thing I was thankful for was lessons ended early. If there's a tornado warning, we clear the pool. Since the warning lasted until 7:30 p.m. and lessons ended at 7:10 p.m. we were done for the night.
- Of course, that meant we all worked longer because we got to patrol the locker rooms and the pool until the "all clear" signal was given. I found a young girl in tears. Her mom had dropped her off for lessons and went home. We talked it through. Call your mom. She did. Take a shower. She did. Get dressed so that you're ready when your mom arrives. She was. And she was on her way home long before the rest of us.
