Random Wednesday

Good morning.  :)

 

My H takes my car for work every once in a long while.  One time he used it, returned it with no gas, and I ended up running out on the way to work.  Ugh!  I was so mad, I warned him not to ever do that to me again.

So he borrowed it Monday and Tuesday, and I specifically told him to make sure it had gas in it when I got it back.

Getting ready to walk out the door this morning, he said "Crap.  Do I tell you now and piss you off or just let you find out on your own?"

The jerkface had my car down to below E and gaslight on. Angry  Sooooo annoying.

Re: Random Wednesday

  • DH does that to my sometimes to but we share a car right now. Normally it would be a problem but the door for the gas cap sticks and there is a trick to get it to open that you have to push on the door outside while pushed the release lever from the inside. I'm to short to do that. With all the other things he has fixed on this blasted machine he hasn't fixed that.

     This spring cold / allergy things is killing me. Last night at work after I got off a phone with a donor I would have a small coughing fit.

    Um...here is my random Embarrassed My H drove my car yesterday and put gas in it for me.  I was surprised, and happy. 

    Sorry your H is so inconsiderate.

    Sorry your H is so inconsiderate. 

    Me too!  Grrr.  He started to get pissed at me for yelling at him.  Really?  What do you expect I do?  Jump for joy that I have to stop to get gas when I'm running late when I specifically told you to make sure there was gas in my car when you returned it?  So stupid. 

    I guess the only solution is to never let him use my car again.

  • A lot of men are stupid when it comes to putting gas in our cars. ERRRRRRR.

    Today had started off to a decent day, but now it's headed the other direction.

    Last night, I hung out with a good friend, had a good time :)

  • I'm annoyed with my doctor's office.  It's been 25 hours since I called to schedule an appoinment, and have heard nothing back.  My problem is not an emergency, but I am in pain and would like to get this taken care of as soon as possible.  I would just appreciate a call back and an appointment date and time.  That shouldn't be too hard.
  • Since all of my posts have been complaints, I will post something positive.

    My uncles are coming here for a visit this week from Texas, and I get to see them on Saturday.  I am so ridiculously excited.  I love them both so much and hardly get to see them.  Party!!!

  • I have two very grumpy girls on my hands today. They are driving me crazy and I feel bad about that because it is my day off and I should be enjoying the time with them. But everything little thing causes a meltdown. Agghh!!
  • Good Morning!

    DM - That stinks about the gas and the doc.  Hopefully you have some answers soon!  I would hate waiting.

    GVSU - I hope your girls cheer up so you have an easier/better day!

    I had a great night last night.  It was our anniversary and Andy surprised me by cooking dinner.  And  he got me a gift - we usually don't exchange presents -  a cute DSLR camera bag.  Then we went to HopCat for a beer to celebrate, and ended up sitting next to the man who owns Siciliano's and he bought us a round of beer!  He and his wife were super nice and fun to chat with.

    Sounds like a SUPER Anniversary for you both. Fun.  

  • I'm birthday shopping for myself right now. Is that wrong?

     

  • I just called again.  I don't understand why they need to see the ER report when I can tell them everything that has happened. 

    Still don't have the report.  I told her to just schedule me an appointment to get the ball rolling because I'm still in pain and don't want to wait around forever.  Friday is the soonest they can get me in. Sad

    Sounds like you had an awesome anniversary. Yay for meeting interesting people and free beer!!

    Des - I think that you should hold his keys hostage until you confirm gas is in your tank.  

    We went for a bike ride on Kent trails last night. It was really nice to be on a trail instead of city streets - we could actually ride side by side. Except a large rodent/beast was on the trail and we apparently scared him. The beast reacted by darting at my bike. I screamed as if I was in a horror movie. Thankfully no other riders were around and i didn't hit the poor animal. 

    Also - Henry has roseola. Boo. His fever broke and he has a little rash. But overall he is not doing so bad.

    I know this wouldn't be ideal - but could you go to an Urgent Care Center? Seeing as how you are in pain and waiting 2 more days seems like a lot.

    I don't know, that's the hard part. I can never really find something I want when I have money to get something.

    Is Urgent Care different from the ER? 

    It's funny - my sister's back went out this morning, and got an appointment for today at 2:30.  She had the option of that or 4:15.  So apparently my problem just isn't that big of a deal. I will just wait till Friday and hope I don't have any more attacks.

    Ugh.  I would be PISSED if my dr's office snubbed me like that.  I would find a new Dr.

    To make matter's worse, I have 30 things on my amazon wish list too and yet I keep searching.

    WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME!!!!

    I have been considering it for years.  I guess I should actually do something about it.

  • imageDesmond&MollyJones*:

    Is Urgent Care different from the ER? 

    Yes.  I had an issue come up a couple of weekends ago. Not serious enough for the ER, but something I wanted checked out right away. Cause I'm impatient like that.

    Anyway - I found one through my insurance company website. (It was a Spectrum Health one.) The copay was higher than a regular doctor's appointment, but I received treatment and a prescription right away.  This was on a Saturday and no one else was there. I imagine if you went now, you would have a longer wait. You also wouldn't have the benefit of your regular doctor taking care of you, but sounds like you might not stick with your doc for long.

    I just called to see if my H's doctor is accepting new patients.  She is, yay.  It can take up to 30 days to make my first appointment, depending on when my doctor's office sends over my files, boo.

    So now what?  Do I wait until after the gallbladder issue is resolved to switch?  Can I ask my doctor to send over my records and still see him for this issue and then move on?  I probably can't wait for up to 30 days to see the new doctor for this issue.  Yuck, I am so frustrated.

  • ahhh....nap time. At least I hope. This mom needs a break.
  • Molly, if your pain was severe enough to send you to the ER and that you are pissed about waiting two days for an appt to check things out, I would stick it out with your current doc for a DX rather than wait 30 days for a new doc.

    Yup, that's my only choice.  I'll switch after.

    Nap time here as well. Enjoy ;)

    Awww are they still crabby?  I bet they'll wake up in wonderful moods.  :)

  • Some doctors groups like Advantage Health offer an after hours care center where you can go and been seen and it's your regular copay - nothing more out of pocket.
