Sophie and I weren't looking forward to today as we had a dentist appointment in Kettering at 9:00am. We left home and arrived nice and early, even though we'd had to park a little way away. We sat and waited, and waited, and by 9:10am, we were both feeling annoyed. We knew we were the first appointments for our dentist, so why were we waiting?
Sophie went to reception to ask how much longer we'd have to wait, and she was told it wouldn't be too long. Five minutes later, we learnt that our dentist was stuck in traffic and would be late. We simply didn't have time to wait any longer, so we cancelled the appointment, made another for June, and fled back to the car. Both of us were seriously annoyed at the time we'd wasted.
Sopihe dropped me off at work, and I started at 10:00am, so that was two hours wasted, when we have so much to do at the moment. I then discovered I was manning the phones from 2:00pm until 4:00pm, but at least I was working until 5:00pm today, so I had an hour to try and catch up!
Sophie collected me at 5:00pm and looked traumatised when she got out of the car! She urged me to drive home and said she'd hated the pedestrians and crossings on the route through the hospital grounds! It's something I have now got used to!
Back home, it was lovely to relax, and I opened a bottle of Italian red to go with the beef stroganoff. I think we deserved it after our stressful day!
