I’m going to start with a random thought:
OMGsh! Is that Daisy Duke on Young and the Restless?? Not as Daisy Duke, of course, but as Chelsea’s mother. If I watched that I show I could tell you. If.
I’m a sweet person. Pretty easy going. It takes a whooooollllleee lot to make me angry.
It happened today.
I have no doubt you’re sick to death of hearing about my phone issues. I’m sick to death of it myself.
Let me tell ya.
I really don’t have the energy to go through the entire story but the gist of it goes something like this:
Blackberry died. Hubby’s old iPhone won’t stay charged. I’m not “eligible” for an upgrade.
Those AT&T people want to charge me $250.99 for a comparable phone.
(What’s with the 99 cents?)
All I have to say to that is hahahahahahahaha….no way in heck.
After an hour and a half of my KID FREE DAY, a store manager who never showed his face and two calls to the corporate office, I got my way. Which did NOT include $250 or 99 cents.
That’s right.
All it took was me holding up the line of about six people, very loudly accusing the manager of not showing his face because he forgot his pants today, and telling Mr. Corporate that I was taking my $350 of monthly AT&T business elsewhere and voila!!
New iPhone to be delivered to my house in 1-3 days.
This isn’t interesting anymore, is it.
I have to be completely honest……it felt pretty dang good to flex my kick-ass business woman muscles. Felt even better to know they were still there! I was afraid the mommy muscles had taken over and turned everything else in to goosh. One of these days I’m going to run out of kids to watch and I’m pretty sure the hubster has a few expectations about my job status when that time comes.
For now though, I’m back in mommy mode and I’m avoiding a very long “to-do” list.
Hope you all are having an equally exciting Wednesday!
And should you find yourself in need of a problem solver extraordinaire who has the punch of Steven Seagal with a little mommy softness thrown in, give me a shout.
Hmmm…..maybe a new branch of the Mommy’s Shoes brand……
And I’d do it for free.
Which is actually not a very solid business model.
Never mind.
