On Saturday morning, I took Jett to the vet. We suspected a UTI of sorts but I called to make an appointment and all. Our appointment was at 10am and I got there at 9:50. We got back into the exam room around 10:45. We had one or two interactions with techs and the vet and waited in the room until noon. That's over two hours. Finally, at 12:10, I was like, We're gonna go...and they assured me the urinalysis results would be ready soon. I paid ONE HUNDRED AND SEVEN DOLLARS and we left. The whole angry-tears thing was happening and I was so irritated.
They called 5 minutes later to tell me they had an antibiotic ready for him if I wanted to come back and get it. That was another FIFTY-TWO DOLLARS. He also got cranberry pills.
I told them that I couldn't remember the last time I'd had a good experience at their office. They seem to have swapped out there staff completely in the last few months and I recognized no one, aside from the vet. In fact, I brought up the fact that, last time when I went to pick up heartworm medicine, they tried to give me the kind for 50-100 pound dogs because they had Jett's weight on the chart as EIGHTY POUNDS. Jett weighs 47 pounds. When I said this, they asked if I was sure.
Thinking...that the most interesting people I know are the ones who watch Shameless. We started the new season this weekend, because I wasn't going to start last week without Scott. But we also rewatched just about all of last season he because hadn't remembered seeing it.
Watching...Scott likes the show Vice Principals so I recorded a few episodes. I haven't laughed that hard in awhile. I was also reminded that I never finished the last few seasons of Justified.
Reading...tomorrow is the Show Us Your Books link-up and I'll share my piddly excuses for reading during the month of October. But, right now, I'm actually enjoying The Bookshop on the Corner more than I thought I would so that's what I've been reading at night these days.
Baking...I got it in my head that I wanted to make these pumpkin cookies. I don't do pumpkin pie or pumpkin cheesecake or anything like that...but I ate half the bowl of frosting before these cookies were even baked.
Wondering...why I hate this dry, late fall season in Colorado so much? With the temperatures in the high 60s this week, I blamed part of my meltdown at the vet on the fact that it's so "hot" out.
Also, wondering why we made the terrible decision to do nothing yesterday except watch Shameless...I did walk the dogs a few times and Scott went duck hunting and I stopped at the store...but that was not the way to set myself up for success for the week. It was actually a really terrible idea.
Thank goodness it's only 5 more days until Thanksgiving break.
Hope you made decisions that would set up with success for the week! (unlike me)
Linking up with Biana...
