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't have any time to spare.
As most women do, I like to take a little extra effort 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 was sitting next to the sink, and gave myself
a quick wash in "that area" to make 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 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, etc.
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."
