Add CommentManic Monday Linky Party is still open!
Hello my friends! How is everyone today? I’m not too bad, looking forward to a few hours of sewing before taking Savi to the dentist for HER FIRST FILLING (Grrrr). I’m not very happy about the cavity, and I’m even less happy with the dentist. In fact, maybe you could tell me what you think – am I wrong to be upset?
We’ve been customers/patients at this place for a few years. We’ve spent a lot of money there. Yes, there have been a couple rare occasions when I had to cancel because of illness, but we’ve always made up the appointment as soon as they could get us in. A few weeks ago, however, I had a checkup in the afternoon. But when I got there, I looked at my mobile and realised I had thought it was at 4:30, but the appointment was actually at 4:15. I was prepared to wait, an hour if necessary, to see if the dentist had a quick spot between patients just to look over my teeth. Instead I was charged £15 by a self-righteous receptionist and asked to reschedule. When they run late, I don’t ask for a discount of £1 for every minute I have to wait; perhaps I should? It pissed me off (and still does – can you tell?) so much that I completely refused to reschedule and have started thinking about changing dentists. So do you think I’m overreacting?
Anyway, on to the showcase! It’s not my showcase, though. It’s my friend Melissa’s Valentine’s Day Showcase, and the voting is still open! There are some truly lovely (pun intended) objets d’quilt which represent many (happy) hours of work, so please show your fellow sewist your support by voting for the one you like best! And no, I’m not in the list, because I’m stupid and didn’t know I could enter. :p
P.S. Because I write a non-Blogger blog, I am one of those unfortunates who will lose my Google Friend Connect widget soon. I really value you as a reader and follower, and I’d like to ask you to consider following me on BlogLovin’, a free service built specifically for people to follow their favourite blogs, or by Feedburner, which is an RSS feed. Thanks!!
