Early morning phonecall

Posted on 29 September 2004 @ 22:43 in Family, Personal

I was just about to reverse the car out of the driveway this morning when my handphone rang. Looked at the hp to see who was calling. GT Heritage. Mother’s nursing home. What are they calling about at this hour of the morning? It was about 7:15 a.m.

Looked around for my BT headset (need to use it with the handphone which is slightly faulty) and realised I didn’t have it anywhere on me or in the car. Rejected the call (sorry ’bout that), and went back in the house to get the headset. Before that, called GT Heritage to see what they wanted.

“Your mother’s Glucosamine and Vitamins C & E last dose today, need to get more …”

Was that all? Phew … I was expecting something worse.

At least the call made me realise I’d left the BT headset in the house, so that I could still get it before I was too far from the house. Or worse, already in the office before I realised it wasn’t anywhere nearby.

I also got to thinking that since I don’t like receiving phonecalls so early in the morning, there must be other people, too, who feel the same way. Especially if the calls are from people they don’t particularly want to hear from.

So yes … no more calls early morning sms’s to a certain someone from now on.
