Utter Frustration

That pretty much sums up my day today. I had to leave class for a scheduled dr. appt that I made before I knew my fall class schedule. I told the instructor and let him know that I would be back for the last hour of class (I have three hour classes). However, as I am sitting in the waiting room watching the minutes tic by I realize...going back to class is probably not going to be happening. I waited for AN HOUR AND A HALF before I saw the doctor. And of course my appt took all of 10 minutes. Apparently they are trying out a new scheduling system....I let her know in no uncertain terms that it doesn't work. Now, I know that normally you wait for a dr. appt for a little bit but when you have to see the OB every 4 and soon to be 2 weeks, their timeliness matters. I want to complain but I don't know who to call. I feel like just calling the appointment line and asking who do I talk with to make a complaint. Maybe enough people will call so that they go back to the old system...where I would walk in the door, give my name, find a magazine, and be called in before I could open it. The saying "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" comes to mind here! Now, the rest of my day just feels off kilter. It's been raining all day so I have had to run around in the rain. Got lost going to a different grocery store that is in route from the clinic. Of course had to wait in the endless line to check out at the store. Then walk with groceries in the pouring rain to the car. To top it off, I am driving Barry's car because mine has decided that it won't start. And, Barry's car needs new brakes which I was reminded of when I almost slid through the stoplight because of the rain and bad brakes. I need to go to bed and start over but we have our birthing class tonight so I have to cook dinner so Barry and I can eat before class and get the snacks ready that I am bringing. Calgon take me away!

On a more fun note...my due date is moved up to January 8th. This one is actually official from my OB rather than me trying to communicate with the OB, Ultrasound Tech, and Nurse Practitioner who don't talk to each other.
