I was up early this morning to take my room-mate to the doctor’s for the “real” appointment. His aunt wasn’t able to take him and one of his friend’s didn’t get the message in time. So, a little cranky I had to take more time off of work, we headed up to the doctor’s office. <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
We were about 30 minutes early and three other people that arrived after he did got seen before him. Finally, 45 minutes after the appointment time, he got seen. I had a book with me, so I was sort of okay, but it was irksome. Apparently, one of the technicians that was going to help him with a “bone growth stimulation device” was running late and that threw everything off.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I took my room-mate back home and went on into work. No problems with taking the time off as far as the boss is concerned, but it still troubled me a bit. I’ve got a reputation for not taking time off – which I guess is why the boss wasn’t phased by it. Still, you know, grumble.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I talked to my sister last night, she was very upset about an email she’d gotten from my aunt about my grandmother’s condition. Grandma just doesn’t seem to be getting better and there’s a general idea that perhaps she’s giving up. My sister and I counter that maybe she needs more things to look forward to and some positive reinforcement. We’re going to start sending her lots of get well cards – maybe a little smile from her Ohio grandkids will help.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Well, back to work…<\/div>\n
