[quote=Anonymous]OP you are calling several PPs b*tch — this is why I am advocating for some evaluation by a physician. Your projection about PPs working to afford exoctic vacations and claiming being called stupid all show you are unhappy and lashing out, so look into that. A few things for your logistics 1) since you seem to require some ‘me’ time to maintain composure, may I suggest making calls and running errands with kids in tow. You can make it a fun outing and you are guaranteed fast service when you descend on a desk with circus in tow. 2) I’m sure you will say ‘how can I call with kids running about’ — get a cheap Bluetooth headset and plug in while you are doing whatever. You can even double down and give a tablet to troublemaker but I don’t let my littles have screens so I respect if you can’t take that out. It’s not like this is a work call where you have to concentrate or have detailed discussions on marketing strategies — you are asking them to send a doc right? 3) you say when you visit your doctor your 15 minute drive lengthens because of traffic. I’m unclear why you are driving during rush hour, but if you go when kids are home you have liberty to check traffic in google and go whenever and avoid traffic. 4) put all of the doctors and appointments and everything into a google calendar and document, keep records and snap receipts all there. Then train DH to pitch in on paperwork b/c he will have free time in evenings at hotel he can use to help the family rather than hitting the hotel bar. If he doesn’t step up, I would recommend couples counseling. Hope this helps and the year improves. [/quote]
