If I ever start a post with the statement, "It was my day off and I stayed in and watched TV," you'll know something's really wrong. Today was an on-the-go kind of day.

I called the doctor's office first thing this morning and found out they open at 9:00. I called at 9:00 and the voice mail commands led me to my doctor's assistant's voice mail. I left a message, along with my cell phone number. I kept my phone in my pocket all day as I went from store to store, and must have looked at it a hundred times. I called back at 1:30 and left another message. I looked at my phone at 4:25 while I was waiting outside Emily's school and saw that I had a voice mail. My phone never rung. It was from the doctor's assistant, who had left the message 2 minutes earlier. Emily's school is on a military base, and I guess there's no reception. As soon as I got off base, at 4:30, I called the office. They were closed for the day. How frustrating. I hope that no news is good news. I'll call again tomorrow. I was really looking forward to having this part of it done. Thanks for all the well-wishes. Let's hope it's good news tomorrow. I think it will be.
