Day 10

It's been one of those weeks.  Not a bad week, just kind of a crazy week.  With the first full week back to work after the holidays, and rolling into a new year, things were a bit crazy there.  And with me not feeling tip top just yet between my lingering cold and the infection in my leg and swollen ankle and foot, it was just...well...a crazy week.

But, near the end of the day, one of the Battalion Chiefs - who knew it had been a bit of a trying week for me at the office - came in and gave me a very unexpected Thank You...an Olive Garden gift card.  Well, it just so happens that Rob was asked to trade shifts today, and worked the morning and had tonight off.  I texted him and asked if he wanted to pick me up from work, and head across the street to the Olive Garden, and of course he did.

We had a great meal, I had this lovely cocktail...and although the place was packed and it was hard to hear each other talk, it was nice to spend an evening out together.

Thanks Curt for the gift card!  We put it to good use immediately!!
