Well dear readers another day in the life of “supermom” is wrapping up.  After a morning of waffle serving I return home to a sick child who is to sick to go to school.  So “supermom” mode kicked in and off to the doctor we go.  We snag a 12:45 appointment that had just opened up.  So my husband has to go to his mother’s house to take her a shotgun and show her how to shoot because we have a lunatic soon to be ex-brother-in-law threatening us which is weird since we are usually the ones threatening people so this is odd however I won’t give this fool the time in my precious blog.  So moving on to my story we arrive at the doctor’s office at 12:20 just in case they can work us in early.  Yes yes I know what in the world was I thinking.  So here we are in the doctor’s office and someone’s phone rings.  Well of course the lady answered the phone.  She proceeds to rant to the poor fool on the other end of the phone about how her kid’s school called her and made her pick up her daughter because they think she might have a Staph infection.  Well the mom is complaining that it was a bug bite and the school nurse was stupid.  Then she says people have to work and can’t drop everything to go to the doctor’s office because they think it might be staff.  As if this part on the 20 minute conversation wasn’t bad enough then she starts complaining about the doctor’s office.  How she would have rather taken them to the Urgent Care Center but they don’t take Medicaid so she had to come to this office and they said they would work her in and they weren’t working her in fast enough.  So by this time I wanted to walk over take the phone away from her ear, told the person on the other end that she would call them back after she went to the ER and had the cell phone removed from her ass.  I had listened to her rant and complain for 20 minutes.  My 12 year old daughter couldn’t even concentrate on the book this woman talking so loud.  By the grace of God they called her back.  I had planned to allow her to take our spot just to put everyone else in the room out of their misery but of course this shall not pass.  By now my headache was flowing through my head.  Well one by one everyone ELSE in the room was called back finally leaving just my daughter and myself.  Even people who came in way after us had been called so we sat in silence thinking ok we HAVE to be next just too hear a name called and this old lady in back waiting room got called.  FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PEOPLE JUST CALL OUR NAME!!!! This is what my headache was screaming.  Finally they call us back and get us into a room.  For some reason my 12 year old started laughing and for the life of her she couldn’t stop.  She laughed every time the doctor asked her something or said anything.  I am now red in the face because I know the doctor thinks I have raised a moron and I had NO proof I haven’t at this point.  Finally we get diagnosed with just a virus.  So I have wasted 3 hours of my valuable time do my supermom routine.  So now as I type out my day I still have a headache and feel really bad….If I get sick from sitting in the doctor’s for nothing more than a “virus” I am going to be ticked off…I will expect to be taken care of by my giggling 12 year old….so well wishes to you all.
