Friday Letters

I've written a few Friday Letters to recap my week, say what's on my mind, and take the opportunity to offer a thank you or two. Let's open the mail...


Dear Dr. P.,

I know you don't have the time to be concerned with the trials and tribulations of your patients' lives, but after driving more than 200 miles yesterday and making some complicated arrangements to get my father to your office for a consultation, it would have been greatly appreciated if we hadn't had to wait an extra two-and-a-half hours in your waiting room for the 12 minutes you spent with him (I timed you). I understand and appreciate that you and your staff are busy and emergencies do arise but there has to be a better way of scheduling that respects your time along with that of your staff and patients. I'll use my five hours in the car to prepare my constructive suggestions for next time.

Dear Wine,

Thank you for making me happy every time I partake.

Dear Next-Door Neighbor,

It's a real shame you had to hurry inside so quickly. You missed my energetic, high-decibel renditions of Trapped, Cocaine, Layla (all three versions!), Burn it to the Ground, Down by the Water, and the rest of my Mowing playlist. Luckily, you'll get plenty of chances to hear me sing while mowing this summer!

========================

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy, and safe spring weekend!

  3. I hate when doctors do that. I'm lucky to have a great one but I can't imagine what I will do when he retires. And wine - always there for us!

  4. You're a saint for not telling the doctor where to stuff his stethoscope. Wine is good to us all.
