Where's My Phone???

Feel free to laugh...

The phone rings. Gotta love caller id. It looks like it might be the library but it can't be since I don't have any books on hold. The one I did have, I suspended. Could it be the doctor's office? Is there an appointment that I forgot about? I mentally go through all the kids and the birthdays as I look at the calendar.

A message is left and it is the library! Huh? I have a book available? So I immediately go to the library website to check. I just checked the site this morning so I'm not quite sure what is up. And I see that I do indeed have an item available. Oops, I guess I didn't suspend the hold.

As soon as the library automated system finishes leaving their message, my cell phone rings. That was a weird coincidence. So when I see that it's D, I pick up. The first thing he says is that the house phone didn't ring. I explain what happened.

Then he goes onto vent his frustration with the pediatrician's office and insurance. We go back and forth discussing what constitutes a well visit and what M's first visit to the pediatrician should be considered.

Then D asks if I got his text. Um, no? Especially since I'm not very good at keeping track of my phone. I look over at the kitchen where it might possibly be. I look around the laptop.

Me: Nope, I don't see the phone. Can't check the text.

D: Ummm... you're on the phone. (chuckling)

Me: Oh, that's why I can't see the phone!

Duh! See what lack of sleep and food will do to you!
