Very frustrated. Picked up for D 3-1/2 hours late. My machine acts up so spend an extra 45 minutes while the PCTs try to figure out whats wrong, in the end they swap the machine so an 4-1/2 hour treatment stretches out to almost to 5-3/4 hours. The driver picks me 45 minutes late and what supposed to be 1/2 hour trip turns out to be 1-1/2 hours and on top of that someone is lying to me why I wasn't picked on time. The dispatch says the driver was sick and the driver who picks to go home tells me it was scheduling problem in the office. Top it off the other drivers didn't have their cell on.

Jeez, that doesn't sound good!  What's up?  Is it renal woes or dad trouble or something else entirely (I'm curious but don't want to pry, so ignore my questions if you'd prefer!).

Thanks, MM. No, it's not renal problems, it's the other. Shame on me for being surprised.

I really appreciate the concern :grouphug;

I guess I'm content tonight..

I was worried about my best friend.  She has a job that has her walking all over that piece of Creation called Manhattan, and her feet hurt. *L*  I always feel better when I know that she's made it home.  I was thinking, if I won the lottery, I'd get her a segway or a scooter of some sort so she wouldn't have to walk, but then, if I won the lottery, she probably wouldn't have to work anyway if she didn't want to.

Pretty much angry, 3 large dogs gained entry to the back lot where my precious, adorable and gentle chickens are at and tried to open the doors to the coop. Lucky my mom heard all the raucous that the birds were making. She called me and my dad and chased the dogs out. They tried to open the coops by pushing with their front paws

am lonesome tonight... I saw someone on tv that reminded me of my best friend.  I only see her once a year, and she's been so busy with her new job that we haven't talked as much as we used to. It makes me miss her more than I normally do

Annoyed

Dad was here tonight, and he came up with all kinds of excuses why he couldn't help clean out the basement so that we could put a new furnace is.  He also said that he couldn't afford to help pay to clean it out either.  Mom told him that if it's not done in the next few weeks, we're moving out and he can figure out how to keep the pipes in this house from freezing
