Thursday I woke up just too ickly to go to treatment. I decided, however, that I’d plod on like a trooper and go on ahead and go to treatment anyway. A few minutes later my SoonerRide driver called to say that his minivan had overheated and he was waiting in front of the garage place for it open at 8 am, this was 7:15, and he was hoping they’d open early at 7:30 for him. I called the ride service office and talked to their dispatcher. I told her that if she’d please be kind enough to call me by 8:15 and let me know some kind of idea about what time they might be able to pick me up so I could let my doctor know I’d be most greatful. She did in fact call me back at that time. She said that they had just started working on the minivan’s radiator and had no idea when they’d be able to have it up and running. I told her that I felt bad and had been considering canceling to start with, so I was just going to cancel because I couldn’t very well call and say “I’ll be late and I haven’t got a clue when I’ll be able to be coming in today”. She asked me to kind when I filed a complaint, and I told her I had no intention of filing one. It was an unforeseen event, and besides I’d been considering canceling anyway and I just took this as a “sign” that I needed to stay home.
As it turned out my grandmother called, so it was good that I had stayed home that day. I didn’t miss the treatment, they will just tack it on the end and I’ll make it up!
I had forgotten to reserve my rides until thursday afternoon with SoonerRide. So I had to voucher tomorrow’s ride, so mom is taking me again. We aren’t doing a bigdeal lunch, just a quick bite because I don’t feel up to a bigdeal lunch again. We may hit three resale shops, which neither of us could think of last week but I have addresses for three of them this week. We also will do a little bit of shopping, mom said she’d get a few things to help us out.
While we are out tomorrow, Dad and my brother will come by the house and rig a repair for the bathroom floor. They also will replace the bathroom toilet. Yippie! We’ll save all the necessary receipts and deduct the $$ of off next month’s rent.
Well that’s it for this week. Take care. Leave comments, it’s the only way I’ll know you were here! (Oh, I deleat and report spam as spam, so spam won’t show!!!)

Well ain’t that something! The place ought to have more than one vehicle considering the mileage (from the sounds of it) they put on them.
