Blahs!

Okay, it is the first day of summer and I find myself with a case of the Blahs.  What is up with that?  I thought that we would get so much done and I would feel a great sense of accomplishment.  Not quite.

This morning we met Cheyenne's swim team to watch, "Prince Caspian".  It was pretty good.  But instead of being able to window shop and have fun at the mall we had to be home to wait for the water softener guy to show up.  Okay what is with repair men saying, "I will be at you home between 2pm and 4pm"?  I hate that.  Since when is an appointment a 2hour window?  Well we rush home and at 3:15 I get a phone call "I will be at your home in about 60 minutes".  I am irritated at this point but I need the O rings changed so I bite my tongue.

Then I get a call at 3:50 and he says, "I will be there in 15-20 minutes".  At this point I ask "well how long is it going to take to accomplish what needs to be done?". 

 "Oh, about 45minutes". " 

Sorry that will not work for me, you said you would be here at 2-4pm, I have to leave at 4:30 so that will not work. You  will have to reschedule. " He was not happy but give me a break.  If you know you are going to be here at 4pm just say about 4pm.  Then I am not wasting my time for 2 hours waiting.  I could have enjoyed some shopping with Cheyenne.

So I now have a new appointment and you will not believe what he told Randy the time would be, "I will be there between 7:30 am and 10:30 am".  Does that mean 10:30 or 7:30.  I would like to scream!!!  How hard would it be to tell me, "I have four appointments ahead of you so if everything goes well this is when I will be there."   You can't tell me he doesn't know when he will be here.  Is he afraid he might sleep in so he needs a window that will compensate for this?  What?  Help?

Maybe this is why I feel like I have the Blahs.  I hate approximate appointments.
