I got to the physical therapy office today at 10:20 am to fill out paperwork. I told the receptionist that I was there for my appointment and she looked on the computer for me. Then she told me that my appointment was on July 7 at 10:30 am.
WTF?!?!
I called on Monday morning and asked if I could come in on Thursday. She said she had a 10:30 am slot and an 12:30 pm slot open. I also had a doctor's appointment today, so I wanted to get physical therapy over with and have a chance to rest before my doctor's appt. I chose the 10:30 slot on THURSDAY MORNING.
How in the hell do you confuse Thursday, July 3rd, with Monday, July 7th? I called in and asked for Thursday, because I have classes at 10:30 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I have a paper due this Monday at 10:30 am. Why in God's name would I schedule a physical therapy session at the same time I'm supposed to be turning in a paper that's about a fourth of my grade?
It boggles the mind, it truly does.
On a positive note, my back is nearly at 100% and I'm cleared for next week to work light duty, 20 hours, with 4 five hour shifts on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. On July 14th, I'm officially cleared to go back to working without restrictions to my regular job, cashier. I'm definitely going to be careful about my lower back, though! I've been going stir-crazy with only school to keep me occupied.
Danny leaves for Ft. Lewis and his PLDC training on the 11th and I promised him that I'd take him out to breakfast. He'll be up there for two weeks, and then home for one day before he leaves with his unit at Fort Vancouver to fly to Ft. Benning in Georgia for two weeks while their band unit is on leave. I'm glad I'm going back to work...I'm going to miss him so much, but four weeks will fly by before I know it if I can work and do school. I'll be too busy to do anything else!
I do really love him. This is the real thing. And I'm happy about it. It feels right.
