For those who follow this blog who aren't in New England, we had a blizzard this week! I'm not sure about the official totals for my specific town but I think we got around 26 inches. Some places nearby got 3 feet of snow though! I did end up making it into the hospital like a winter warrior. I was supposed to work in the OR but they closed due to the weather. I ended up coming into work early and working up in the main pharmacy. When I left work at the end of my shift, the storm was still in full swing. Thankfully, my hubby and brother in law drove me in and picked me up. My little ford focus wouldn't have made it, that's for sure! I definitely would have gotten stuck somewhere.
On Monday, I got a phone call from my orthodontist but couldn't answer right away. They left me a message about confirming my appointment and to call them back. So I did. Thank goodness I called them back! I called and they informed me that the office on Wednesday wouldn't be opening until 10am (in order to allow the parking lots to be plowed and such). They were wondering if I would be able to push my appointment back until 11:30am. I told them that I'd be working at that time so I was unable to switch my appointment. I schedule 8:30am appointments for a reason and it's difficult for me to switch my appointments should an issue come up.
I told them that I was supposed to see Dr. Klein every 6 weeks and due to my schedule, I'm actually coming up on week 7 without a check up. I told this to the secretary and she told me that Dr. Klein definitely needs to see me. She told me that she could fit me in on Friday at 1pm. Again, I would be working but I have some flexibility that day. I spoke to my boss and she said I could leave early for my appointment.
I'm just glad I called because I normally don't. I usually confirm my appointments online but they called me after I had already confirmed online so I thought that maybe something was up with my appointment. If I hadn't called, I would have gone into Boston this morning for no reason and probably would have waited around and missed a lot of work.
Not looking forward to this appointment because I think I will have spacers installed on my top back molars. And with the super bowl on Sunday, I will probably only be able to eat mushy junk instead of good junk (like chips and popcorn). ;_; Oh well, might be the perfect time to make some home-made mac and cheese.
EDIT: So, I just realized in my last post, I said I would post a new progress photo every time I posted something new. Well, I had an epic-fail moment cause I totally forgot that I had committed to that challenge. And my photographer (aka my husband) is at a soccer game right now sooooo.... guess I'm off the hook for now! I will TRY to post a progress photo on Friday after my appointment. WHOOPSIE! :D
