Scheduling
posted by Jen | 11:28 AM
Roxy's pawis swollen again, so I called the vet this morning.
Receptionist: Hmmm... Well, I don't suppose you could get here by 10:30?
Me: Um, no. (It's 10:20.)
Her: Well, I don't have any other appointments open. Do you think you could leave her for the day, and they'll look at her between appointments?
Me: Sure.
Her: OK, can you get her here by noon?
Me: Maybe...
(Thinking - Carina will wake up at about 11:00, and I'll need to feed her, change her, get her and Roxy into the car...
Me: It might be a bit later; I have to feed the baby at 11:00.
Her: Well, it would really be better for us if you're here by noon.
OK, lady. I'll try to tell the 1-month-old about YOUR busy schedule.

Babies are good at letting you know who is in charge :)
why does it matter what time you get there? they are just going to look at her whenever anyway... geez...
