If he was running that far behind, why not tell the patients so they can get something done in the meantime? argggggggggggg!pedalpowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06470754372766025694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-53928884819925506262010-02-26T18:27:38.098-06:002010-02-26T18:27:38.098-06:00Hey Marlene!

When it occasionally slips out in response to some aggravation, the word actually "feels" tight, and pressed in somehow. Whenever I catch myself saying it, I find another way. I sincerely believe the word, itself, has some poisonous properties! And...what's worse? It's contagious!<br /><br />EloraElorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04579555623060708938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-63449672082082471352010-02-25T15:42:34.794-06:002010-02-25T15:42:34.794-06:00Ah, Marlene, once again you've hit the nail on...Ah, Marlene, once again you've hit the nail on the head with your insights.

When I take time to cook something really special, set the table nicely, I think it is the height of disrespect when they think it's OK to be half an hour late. I'm sorry but I just do.

Long time ago, when I didn't have any hobbies to distract me, I was always on time, or early. Now, I have too many distractions, and I am getting older, and slower, and just like to stay home! That's my excuse, and I'm stickin' to it! <br />be blessed,<br />MichelleMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11994575359990994574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-6620112077537794742010-02-24T19:39:34.313-06:002010-02-24T19:39:34.313-06:00Well, it really makes me angry to sit in a doctor&...Well, it really makes me angry to sit in a doctor's office waiting for an hour, but they'll sure slap you with a late charge in a hurry if you have to reschedule at the last minute. My time is very limited and I resent when it's truly wasted waiting for somebody. But like you said, some people can't go to a doctor at all. It doesn't make me feel a whole lot better while I'm waiting though!Phyllishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02161905717646343288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-71989585096582888962010-02-24T17:54:31.883-06:002010-02-24T17:54:31.883-06:00Your husband has his own bathroom?

I usually give it a once over once a week and big cleaning every other week.<br />I am not a late person. Sometimes, I have to take a book and read in the car because I've arrived for a meeting too early. My Dentist once called to see why I was late. They said they knew something must be wrong because I was never late. I had written down the wrong date. I was very embarrassed. Luckily that time they had called me earlier enough that I wasn't too late when I got there.<br />Originally, Walmart's motto was "you're always next in line". I remember when checkers would be lined up waiting for us in front of their counters. Not anymore. My husband says all that changed when Sam Walton died.<br />Mama BearLove Bears All Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04091529156071883508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-28908868964499087802010-02-24T17:51:21.283-06:002010-02-24T17:51:21.283-06:00What an inspiration you are.
