Disappointing.

I was supposed to have an OB appointment today, but 5 minutes before I had to leave the house, they called to cancel because the doctor I was seeing was on call and got called and they didn't know when he'd be back.  And apparently Fridays are really busy around there, because none of the other 7 or so doctors had any openings.  

I totally understand that they are called away.  I'm not mad about that.  It's just that I don't think anyone realizes how difficult it is to get 3 kids and myself prepared to get out of the house.  I had plans!  I organized my time wisely!  I showered!  Did my hair!  Put on makeup!  I had my good underwear on!  The kids were all fed, changed, and mostly happy.  Everyone even had shoes on.  I had a cooler bag packed with drinks for the kids while they stayed at Tiff's house!  Seriously, people!  My entire morning had been devoted to getting out of the house at 9:30.

...and I had so been looking forward to sitting in that waiting for even just 10 minutes, reading a magazine by myself.  Even if I had to drop my pants to do it.  

It was all gone in a two minute phone call.  *sigh*

You should have gone somewhere anyway and kept it all a secret. That's damn hard work, all for nothin'.

Thanks for the laugh, sorry you did not get your ten minutes of peace!
