Mummy's Boy...

Today after school Chris asked me if he could have a " serious talk" - I was a little concerned so, got to it straight away! He hates his freckles and thinks the girls wont like him because he has a dotty face - LOL, bless his gorgeous little cotton socks! I had a talk to him and explained it the best way i knew how and he turns to me and says - ever so bluntly " Well you don't know how it feels because YOU don't have freckles!" I spent the next 30 Min's showing him my pics from growing up and my very freckly face! He was shocked, and convinced now that's its cool - because well mum is cool, and she had freckles. He is such a darling little boy, sometimes i feel very guilty when it comes to him because he has such a vivid memory , he amazes me with what he remembers and i often wonder if the past has affected him, and if he will suffer as a teen/adult - He is wise beyond his years and has been through so much in his short life, the break up of his parents, moving away from Dad, his Dad barely being in his life, the list goes on - I remember a day back when he was maybe 6 or 7, i was going through some horrific depression and i actually think i missed a whole year of my babies , this day i was crying, sobbing uncontrollably - and he held me, and rocked me and stroked my face and probably at that point saved my life - I love my son, my first born, my baby - So very much. ( and the girls will love him freckles and all - I mean, just look at those blue eyes - Gets me everytime!)

In other news - Work was crap today, total crap! That wench left all the jobs for me again and no managers or supervisors were on, so i just had to stew on it! I had a very rude lady in today which annoys me to no end because i am always happy and polite to all my customers, i could tell from just lookin at her she was one of them women! Her husband ordered their meals, and when i took them to the table she told me she didn't order that, i said nicely this is what your husband ordered and produced the docket - The husband then said sorry to her and admitted ordering the wrong food - she didn't want it and asked me to change it for what she wanted, i kindly told her she would have to order and pay for another meal as THIS is what was ordered, ( I mean shit, its not my fault her hubby cant order for her correctly ) She told me not to bother and ate the meal served - When i cleared her plate i asked her how her meal was, as i do, and she said it was shit - I said, well you ate it all so it cant have been too bad, she then said i should have just changed it for her , and said, in my face " Look lovey i have been in the pub business for 20 years i know the risotto is not made to order you could have put it back and just got me what i wanted" HOW RUDE!!!! So, not so happy and smiley i said " Excuse me, please don't speak to me like that, once a meal has left the kitchen it CAN NOT be just put back, it would have to be thrown out at our expense , rules are rules and i have to obey them, its my job " She then says " Well rules are meant to be broken, i want to see your supervisor " I smiled big now and said " Your lookin at her" - HA stupid woman, she then asked for the chef, who completely backed me up and pretty much put her in her place! Why are some people so mean and rude? If it was my mistake i would have happily replaced her meal - silly cow.
