Found It

Most of you know I've been sick with a sinus "something" since the second week of August. When I saw my doctors the second week of Septmember, they agreed I had been sick long enough. The osteopath prescribed an antibiotic. The allergist said if I wasn't better by October 1 to go get a CAT scan.

He gave me a prescription sheet with the "CAT scan" authorization on it. I hung the little sheet on the calendar for three weeks.

When it was obvious Friday, October 5, that I was STILL sick, I took down the little piece of paper to try and call around to find out where to get the CAT scan done. The person that answered the phone at my insurance company was totally useless, so I put the little paper away.

Then I couldn't find it any where. It was lost.

I have searched for a week for the damned piece of paper. Finally, I called the allergist's office on Tuesday to ask for another one. "Call before coming by on Thursday" were my instructions. I called this morning at 9 AM. At a few minutes to Noon, my call was returned. "Come pick up your new CAT scan prescription."

I drove through at least three construction zones in packed, lunch-time traffic to get to the allergist's office. New little paper in hand, I walked back to Karl the Wonder Truck.

"I shouldn't just shove this in my purse. It will probably get ripped that way. I should put it some place safe... like... my... wallet..."

Guess what was in my wallet?

I go for my CAT scan Monday, if child care arrangements can be made. All prayers cheerfully accepted.
