Anyway I'm Tanner and this is my website.

Restaurant Review
As soon as you walk through the doors of the Quality Italian there is this very nice calming music and the lighting is dark but not too gloomy. The service is amazing, they bring your food right to your table like a buffet and cook it right in front of your table. The waiters/waitresses are very kind and treat you professionally. The sound level is somewhat loud but not really, it’s a restaurant so you have to expect some talking and laughing with friends or family because I know when I'm out to eat I talk a lot. The price level is good for the amount of food you get and with how great it tastes, you definitely get what you pay for at this restaurant. The whole place is wheelchair accessible to make it easy for the handicapped to go out and enjoy time out of the house and have a good cooked meal. Reservations are accepted which is nice being that this restaurant is very popular and probably full most of the time. The cooks to cook beside your table are very fancy and seem like professionals when cooking, they do cool tricks with the food and make your experience fun and enjoyable. Their menu is fairly easy to read and they have lots of different food choices from steaks all the way to just salads. Quality Italians ideas of entertaining and silly sometimes they don’t understand the difference, soups in paper cups seems a little out of the ordinary considering paper and liquids don’t mix very well. Overall I think the Quality Italian restaurant is very nice and very well put together and is an amazing lunch/dinner spot to eat and get entertained.
Mini Memoir
If there's anything I've learned in my 16 years it’s to not take anything for granted, in the blink of an eye everything you ever learned or the things you have or the people you’re closest to could be gone.
The first experience I’ve had with loss was a long time ago when I was about 6 or 7 and it was my only real grandpa on my dads side of the family. We would take camping trips to his house all the time, go fishing, tubing, and just have lots of fun our dogs would run around, we would start a fire share good laughs. This was a long time ago but I remember going to the hospital and not being able to see him, we spent all night in the hospital waiting on answers. That next morning we woke up to find out that he didn’t make it that morning.
The second experience I’ve had with loss was two years ago with my other grandpa, he was a well known mechanic and dirt track race car driver. My grandpa throughout the years had cancer two different times one before I was born and one when I was young, so I don’t remember much. As I grew up I loved my grandpa and grandma they taught me almost everything I know today, my grandpa taught me about cars and how to fix them and my grandma taught me about working hard and doing the job right. When I was 14 my grandma left my grandpa got a divorce and even more, the papers got dropped off when I was working for him one of the weekends of summer. As a teenager I tended to not want to see my grandpa all the time or didn’t want to go work for him but now being 16 and he’s gone I think much more. A week after my grandma left we found out my grandpa had cancer again, only this time it was much worse than the other two times. My grandpa got diagnosed with Preleukemia and the hospital gave him six months. We were all shocked and in disbelief because his life was falling apart, his dog wasn’t doing well and neither was he. My grandpa ended up being told by the hospital that he had six months to live for a year and a half, he did everything he wanted to do before he left this world. April 28, 2018 my grandpa passed away (two days from his birthday) happily in his house sleeping on his couch.
Another scenario that I had happened to me was my dog recently passed away almost three years ago now and it took us six months to figure out what we needed to do. After six months went by we all decided we needed another dog to fulfill our old dogs path. We find this beautiful Pit Bull with the same coloration and markings as our old dog, all brown with white paws and a white strip between his eyes and down his nose. The first thing we had to do with her obviously was find a name, we all decided on Josie and she was seven weeks old. A week goes by and we have another dog again we all love her she’s amazing, she’s energetic, playful, emotional, we all love her. Another week goes by and my dad decides to take her over to one of his buddies houses to hang out and let her play with their dog. I’m just out of school with my friends over and my step mom comes running down the hill of the backyard yelling my name and calling me to her, I was very scared and very confused. I finally made it to her and she tells me the worst thing a 14 ever wants to hear, “Josie got ran over your dad has her on the side of the house in a towel. Now being 14 it’s hard to see an animal that you just got attached to dead in your dad's arms wrapped up in a towel. We all say our goodbyes and how much we loved her, Josie is now buried in our back yard and her collar is hanging from my mirror in my truck.
The moral of this story is to not take anything for granted because before you know it it’ll be gone. Looking back I wish I would have went to see him more and returned his calls instead of making up lies, I wish I would have went to help him do some work around the barn. The one thing I wish I did the most was just go and see him and talk about how school was going or just what’s going on in my life. Do not take anything for granted, make the best of what you have and have fun don’t waste your time being sad because of what someone said or did. Enjoy life and the people around you because you never know what could happen.
The Lost Fish Nemo
Nemo come home it is cold outside.
You can not get lost in this dark place.
You’ll come home shaky and lost,
The ocean is no place to explore.
The ocean floor deep and dark,
Scary and full of sharks.
Nemo come home, the ocean
Is not a place for little fish like you.
I am lost, my parents worrying for me
As i’m cold and scared. The ocean floor
Deep and dark below me. As I swim further
And further away the more they worry. I want
To go home, I want to get away from this daunting
Place they call the deep dark. Hours of swimming
And searching, I finally find home. Parents scared,
Me scared. We’re all together now it’s ok we’re all
Safe and happy you’re home now.
