The Instructions That Did Not Work

Adventure Location: Corpus Christi, Texas

The first event this morning was getting to the Vet Admin to find out that last Friday the OFM had been told a story that did not work for the rest of the staff.  The triage nurse Friday said to walk in, ask for a nurse and the TDAP shot would be given and away the Teams would go. SURE.

What happened is that the clerk assigned me a nurse appointment for 12:30.  The doctor that had been assigned to me was also changed to the new kid on the block. Anyway the Teams headed over to the Blood Center to lose some weight.

At the Blood Center the OFM was allowed to be the training dummy for two new workers.  Of course that slowed things a bit but we did get some laughs from the event.  The blood flowed easily and the OFM was soon enjoying his cookies and lemonade. The new shirt and the OFM were out the door in plenty of time.

 After messing around in an air conditioned store or two for a bit we headed to get a hamburger before the OFM fainted.   Did you know he can nearly swallow a whole Whataburger whole?

Back at the VA in plenty of time for our appointment, we were informed the appointment had been moved forward to 1300. So Ok we wait for over an hour and about 1330 the Shot Taking Team headed in for the TDAP shot.  This will allow for safe hugging of my soon to be born new grandkid. Let the Team warn you, that shot HURTS and will for a few days according to the explanation given to the OFM. In less than three minutes the Team was out the door headed back to the Castle in the unbearable heat.

And that was the big adventure for today. It was definitely not the best way of trying to have tooooo much fun. TheOFM.
