Do I really want to try again? Mentally preparing myself...
I think I want to.
Work has been hell. We're trying to get ready for the season to start in eleven days, and we still don't have docks or moorings in the water. I've been coming home fried every night, I'm lucky if I make it to ten or eleven most nights before crashing. Or I take a nap after supper. Or I take a nap and then just head to bed when I wake up.
Grandma had a heart attack on Saturday. She's okay, but it still scared the crap out of me. I worry about her.
I was sick Saturday and Sunday with the tummy virus. My stomach's still not right, but when is that a surprise?
I've been to three docs in three days this week trying to catch up before the season starts. The dentist left me with a purple cheek. The toe doc went well.
I work six days this week.
It's time for bed.
So, here's my question. If you have a patient who calls in who had a piece of tooth chip out today, and she can feel it with her tongue (very sharp), and it's in a tooth that you told her to keep an eye on because she was starting a small cavity...
WHY WOULD YOU MAKE HER WAIT A WEEK AND A HALF TO SEE YOU WHEN THE CHIP FELL OUT?
Don't you think that that would take some kind of priority? No. Unless I'm in serious discomfort, I will not be seen until the 2nd. If someone cancels, I MIGHT be able to be bumped up. Maybe. But it isn't guaranteed.
Why do I bother calling when I have a problem when I know I'm not going to be seen anyway? I was hoping that even if it wasn't tonight yet, I'd at least have a shot for tomorrow, Friday at the latest.
I guess that was too much to ask.
I hope it was a very spiritual, peaceful time for you all, and a time with close family and friends.

And for those of you who go to Easter Sunrise Services at church... aren't you glad it didn't fall on daylight savings time jump this year?
