One of the bloggers I follow says when she feels as if she’s wasting time, she starts a Done To list, recording her day in detail. I thought, hmm, think I’ll try that. Here are the first few entries.
7:30 Shower, shave, brush teeth & hair, dress
7:50 computer, open tax prep invoice, discover it claims to be submitted
to financial advisors
7:55 email fin. adv. asking for confirmation invoice paid by them?
8:05 check laundry room for missing sock – find it! behind machine under a pipe
8:10 search 5th floor and 4th floor lounge for the chair Patty likes, find it on 4th, chance encounter with Lois who says she can tell me where they got those chairs, will email me and patty
8:16 find medical release form to request CT scan images for PCP – returned by fax – must ask at desk if they fax
Next I went to the lobby to meet with Joanne for a walk. The front desk person says no, we don’t fax, go the UPS store. Then off for a lovely walk with stop for coffee. Back to CH in time for the line dance class at 10:30.
After line dance I take the car out for an errand run. First to the UPS store to fax the request to please send my CT scan on CD to my PCP. I can’t imagine why Stanford Hospital cannot share imagery a quarter mile to my doctor at Palo Alto Medical Foundation by electronic means. No, they have to get a two-page release form from me, and then allow 14 days for a CD to be mailed to the doctor.
Next to the bank to deposit a check. Then to Costco to order new glasses. That took an hour. The lady was very friendly and patient, helping me find acceptable frames. I wanted an exact replacement for the frames I got from them three(?) years ago but nope.
Back home for a long nap, then up to 11 for the TGIF party, this month put on by the 9th floor. Ate snacks and wasn’t hungry for supper, so just vegetated in my room from 5:30 on.
