The phone rings as I was leaving to pick my son up from pre-school.
It’s my husband…
“I need you to do me the BIGGEST favor.” He says.
“I just did…last night.” I replied…
“No…not that, idiot (term of endearment, I guess). Call the pediatrician and see if she can take over my son’s treatment for ADHD.”
“Um…ok…”
“Just call. Tell her that we don’t want to pay the 150 bucks the shrink charges EVERY TIME we go there…for the 20 minutes we spend with her…just to get a new script. Dr. S knows our situation. See if she can start taking care of hm for his anxiety and ADHD.”
“But…”
“Just DO IT!”
“Fine.”
Click. Actually…press end.
So I call the doctor. I end up having to speak to the nurse because the doctor isn’t in.
Then…
I end up not knowing the dosage that we need so…
I have to call my husband back. Then…
I have to call the doctors office…AGAIN…
and leave a message for them to call ME back because I have the correct dosage…
And the WHOLE TIME…
I’m thinking to myself…
Wouldn’t this have been so much easier…
If the IDIOT (NOT a term of endearment) had called the doctor himself…
It would have saved a boatload of minutes on my cell…for which I get in trouble…
EVERY MONTH…for going over…
But…
he IS a man…and THAT is NOT a term of endearment either.
I guess I know WHO OWES WHO a FAVOR tonight!!
LOL.. appointed secretary (or sexytary?) that’s what we are to them haha..
I am lol!!!! If only my husband had “the biggest favor ever” he would be the happiest man alive for many days to come!!!!Sorry about the ADD, etc… I have lived it; the best thing you can do once diagnosed is to get the ped to prescribe.
I PROMISE I will answer / sign up for all things as soon as I can. Just know that I am always reading and you add to the bloggy world.

Would have been easier…But that is men for ya! Have a great weekend
you guys have a lot of sex going on
Good call on the favor exchange.
I hope everything is okay with your step-son.
Men, can’t live with them, can’t live with them.
I hope you made him hold up on his favor. For some reason my idiot thinks he can promise a favor and not follow through. But I’m on to him.
And GL with the ped taking over the ADHD treatment. That would be so much easier.
You KNOW that’s a total man thing to pull. Sounds just like one.
The last line is my favorite
