Today, I was up early to make the phone call to the doctors to get mom in. I ended up leaving a message and waiting. I waited a good 45 minutes and decided to go over and see about making it in person. As I was headed to the bank, I received the call. We had an appointment at 1:45 pm. Yet, I was on my way at 9:00 am. Which left me with 3 hours of waiting.......and waiting. ....
I got to moms and she looked good. I told her of the appointment, and I let my brother know as well. I didn't take anything to work on, but I did have the bag out in the car that has stuff I could work on.
I asked mom if she had eaten and she said she did, but nothing tastes good. So, I got her ice cream. As I was going to get it for her, she said she wanted cookies, but she didn't have any. Which had me making her some M&M cookies. I got the original chocolate chip cookie receipt and got to work.
I ended up cleaning her kitchen and putting her dishes away while I baked. I had to clean her blender as well. But by the time I was done, I still had another hour and a half to wait. So, I went and got my bag and got to work on my potholder.
I finished it just before the timer when off to go to her appointment.
We were there on time, she got another doctor because her's was on jury duty. Once she got in, I asked a lot of questions, and he gave me the answers. Mom talked most of the time. I didn't agree with her on a couple things. She said she doesn't sleep in her chair and I told him she does. So, they are going to work on her sleep to see if that could be the problem for her at night.
I had to go to Walgreens to get some nicotine patches. It took me a good half hour and then I got the wrong stuff. It's expensive too! So, I need to go tomorrow and get her another box of the right stuff. UGH!! I took it back to her. Then I came home. It was 3:45 pm before I got home. NOT happy! Brother Patrick missed out on the doctor visit because he got too busy.
I decided I was tired and would fix supper for myself and call it good. I didn't want to do ANYTHING since my day was GONE! I was hoping it would be a day of getting stuff done - Hell NO! So, hopefully tomorrow will be different, I have a PT appointment tomorrow.
At least I had something in the car to keep me Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
