Pick up the phone!

I have a problem.  It may not seem like a problem to you, but for me it is.  I don't like to pick up the phone and make appointments.  I'm way overdue for a dentist appointment. . . because I don't want to call.  I need to call for my kids too.  It has been on my to-do list for the past two months!  Every day I either forget (seriously) or decide to do it tomorrow.  I'm not sure why I feel this way. . .it took me so long to make the appointments for summer physicals for my kids too!

So after lunch today with Penny sleeping and Noel watching a video---I did it.  I picked up the phone and called.  First of course, I looked up the number in the phone book.  Yes, I still use the phone book.  I like it. I called the number and talked to a very sweet woman--the wife of the dentist.  This is a new dentist for me (my former dentist wouldn't fix my crown for three weeks even though it was cracked-"we have to check to see if it's cracked and then we can get you in three weeks later"-um. . . I can see the crack, I am spitting out pieces of crown, and I am in pain therefore you will no longer by my dentist) so I was taken aback when she explained that I had called her house.  Their home number was mistakenly put into the yellow pages.  I called with right number and left a message. Perhaps they were on lunch.

Then I called the number of the kids dentist.  I felt so great that I was doing it.  I had the calendar beside me and had some dates in mind.  They were closed for lunch.  Please call back at 1:30.

It is now 1:37.  I WILL finish this blog post.  I WILL then get up and not check other internet stuff and I WILL call back.  Yes.  I.  Will.
