[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 347204, member: 1991"] Unfortunately, the calls from the school were all vital, urgent administration. It's early in our school year but not too early for the paperwork for special provisions and enrolment issues to be dealt with. We've got three days to get the introductory "anti-plagiarism" course to be completed (what difficult child 3 did today) and a week to get the first set of papers in for his Special Provisions application. I still have to call the Speech Pathologist, but I piked on that one today. I also need to call the pediatrician urgently, but I ran out of energy and time today also. I normally would have pulled the plug, but any call could be someone with news of my sister, or someone with urgent stuff from the school. I had told the school about my cancer (it comes up on the screen when they pull up our data before calling us) so they know to only call if it's really urgent. It was just unfortunate that so much stuff today was urgent. I wish I'd been able to blow off my friend, though. But she's one of those people who will call back if she didn't get a long enough chat. She also knows about the cancer, she was ringing to find out how I'm going. It was actually one of the calls from the school coming through that got rid of her - the "call waiting" pips are fainter if it's not for you, but you can still hear them, so she knew I wasn't just fobbing her off. The choir went well tonight. I had to put on a bra to go there, and it actually has helped me realise that I think I have a problem developing. I'll have tome to call the breast care nurse in the morning before we have to leave for the dentist, so I might be able to be seen by the surgeon tomorrow, if they think there's a problem. They're so helpful - I let the nurse know, she will call the surgeon and organise an appointment if either of them feels it's needed. And the surgeon's rooms are right over the road from the mall! It's all so convenient. But here's hoping it's just internal stitches or something. Enjoy your Book Fair week - for our kids it was always worse than toy shops, trying to get them away from book sales! Marg [/QUOTE]
