The Wash Cloth

Ladies: this has to be read, laughed at and passed on.
There is not a woman alive today who won’t crack up over this! I was due for an appointment with the gynecologist later in the week. Early one morning, I received a call from the doctor’s office to tell me that I had been rescheduled for that morning at 9:30 am. I had only just packed everyone off to work and school, and it was already around 8:45 AM . The trip to his office took about 35 minutes, so I didn’thave any time to spare. As most women do, I like to take a little extraeffort over hygiene when making such visits, but this time I wasn’t going to be able to make the full effort. So, I rushed upstairs, threw off my pajamas, wet the washcloth that wassitting next to the sink, and gave myself a quick wash in that area tomake sure I was at least presentable. I threw the washcloth in the clothes basket, donned some clothes, hopped in the car and raced to my appointment. I was in the waiting room for only a few minutes when I was called in. Knowing the procedure, as I’m sure you do, I undressed hopped up on the table, looked over at the other side of the room and pretended that I was in Paris or some other place a million miles away. I was a little surprised when the doctor said, ‘My, we have made an extra effort this morning, haven’t we?’ I didn’t respond. After the appointment, I heaved a sigh of relief and went home. The rest of the day was normal …. Some shopping, cleaning, cooking. After school when my 6 year old daughter was playing, she called out from the bathroom,’Mommy, where’s my washcloth?’ I told her to get another one from the cupboard. She replied, ‘No, I need the one that was here by the sink, it had all my glitter and sparkles saved inside it.’
Never going back to that doctor. Ever.

I am an almost 30 year old blogger. I write about my life and my struggles with Multiple Sclerosis. I also am a huge book worm and because of that I review tons of books so other people can get ideas of books they should check out. I also blog about adoption from time to time because I placed my daughter for adoption when I was 20.
