So mother was burning cookies upstairs. Her back was so weak she had to sit down. I dropped everything downstairs and tried to help her, but finally said we will not finish this as you have an appointment at 1:40 and you need to go clean up and get ready.
The appointment was 2.5 hours long and a waste of time, I think the specialist was drunk or on drugs we will not be going back. I will not go into the details, but I felt so sorry for my mother. She was humiliated, in pain and close to hysteria when the nurse came to get me. If I had seen the doctor who was out of sight I would have cornered him. I think he was laying low.
I finally got home and spent the rest of the evening placating mom. Went to Joanns for a zipper and to Wally world for candy canes, dish soap, kleenex, and to get mother's mind off of her day. Took her to taco time so she could have a cherry empanada. Then I went home and finished her cookie mess and frosted about 7 dozen peppakkakor with white piping. Finally was done at 10 p.m.
I did get more things carried up and down stairs, I did get the Christmas tree done. Today I have to sew and I told mom that. She is not to start anything she can't handle on her own. If she feels she is going down she is to turn off the stove and leave everything until I can tackle it tonight.
I have a such a headache. Why?
Have a great and productive day!

Oh Kim I am so sorry you had such a difficult day. Fingers crossed that today will be better.
ReplyDeleteActually it was but I laid down some ground rules.
DeleteBe certain that you log a complaint about that doctor. Today it is all about patient satisfaction, and you don't have to put up with any nonsense (crap)!
ReplyDeleteOh don't you worry I will, I have already got that ball rolling.
DeleteBlessings.

DeleteI'm sorry your day was yuck! I'm praying your day gets better and I'm going to find out what peppakkakor is...
ReplyDeleteA Swedish/Norwegian cookie made with plenty of spice and pepper, Like a spicy ginger bread. Delicious, I would send you the recipe but I still want to be your friend.
