Well my friends, I believe this long bumpy, twisty road is fixing to start to smooth out some.  Our journey to renovate this little place is coming to an end.  We have in the last 2 weeks, cleaned the dining room, cleared out the fountain room and have somewhat put the kitchen together.  Today the stove, griddle and the 2 deep fryers were put in their place.  The outside lights are on the building and tomorrow they are putting up the little arrow light up!  Can't wait to see it up and working after 45 years!  We are sealing the floor and getting all the dust and dirt that comes with renovating out.  Curtis called the health inspector and he is out sick, so we will see how long we will have to wait on him.  We have hired just a couple of people and I would like to hire one more if we can. Oh, and the most important thing is that most of the food is there....I just hope I haven't forgotten something...YIKES!
I am really ready to be finished working on the building, and I am ready for a change but then on the other hand I am scared to death.  I don't know what to expect but I keep telling myself it will be just like being a bank teller but instead of a lot of money to be handled you will be handling food.  But that isn't really working too well.  So, I will just have to wait and see and hope for the best. I over think everything that I do and I wish I could stop doing that and just let what will be, be.  One fear I have is that people will want something that we are not serving and get mad, but really we can only serve so much, we have very little storage so you can only have so much really.  Ugh, it will all work out...just scared.
Once we open, I will do my best to blog about the daily happenings and surely there will be some funny moments to blog about and many some of the not so funny moments to blog about too!  
Who would have ever thought that 2 people would quit their jobs and open a small resturant in a small Oklahoma town?  Stay tuned...
