It Wasn’t Me

T was a little miffed with me today that I showed up at 2:30 to pick him up. For a dentist appointment that I did not make. Yes you read that right, I took lunch and my last 15 so I could go and get him from school. Had to ask for directions from two very nice young ladies. Who looked at me a little askance when I first asked how to get to the office. Turns out the 9/10’s have their own office and the 11/12’s have a separate one.

The ex if any of you recall continuously complained that I scheduled T’s dentist appointment on his week. That he wanted to do it. I was all for it. Even sent L three months worth of my calendars that show whose week is whose. And I promptly forgot about it. Until last week when I got the week out reminder for his appointment.

At first when I glanced at it I thought oh I better shoot L a text to remind her. Then it dawned on me the date and I went back to check. Sure enough it was for today. And I had not made that appointment.

I drove that point home over and over and over again. That I was not the one to make this appointment. And it turned out that it was for his last two fillings. He groaned and I left him and went back to work. Yesterday they had reminded me that there was a cost and I messaged the ex to let him know his share.

After the appointment I went back over (the dental office is right across from work) to pay the bill. I was not looking forward to it because the total was slightly over $100. Imagine my surprise and delight when they informed me I had a credit on my account (who gets credit at the dentists? Me!) and asked if I wanted to use it. Well hello, of course I did and my bill was reduced to $21.00 and change.

Messaged the ex when I got home to let him know the good news. I had said no worries about the dentist and the credit. He messaged back to ask how much he owed me. I though he would understand the no worries about the dentist meant he did not have to pay this time. Apparently not. So I had to spell it out. No money required this time around. He gets a freebie.

Bop Goes The Cat

Sunday evening T was home before 10. Not by much by I was still awake. That though is a story for another day.

T was chattering away with me giving the cats all the loving. Apparently they were more missed than I was. LOL LOL Loki is loving the attention until he no longer is and squirms free. Lucky is watching him with distrust. She loves to cuddle with me but does not like to be picked up and held unless on her terms. Like you have just gotten out of the shower and she wants loving.

He turns to Thomas waiting patiently for his turn at his feet. Picks him up and comments on his weight.

Not once. But a few times calling Thomas chunky and what was I feeding to him. Same as always but he likes food. Still plays with Loki and balls. Runs around so am not terribly worried.

I guess though that Thomas took offense to the discussion of his fat. As I watched he reached up and…..bop! He bopped T on the nose. I howled. Cried I was laughing so hard. T took great offense. Put Thomas on the ground. Affronted he informed that that was not funny. I begged to differ as I laughed my butt off.

I told K yesterday more than once because…..bop!
