Thank you GrowingTree. May all be well with you and your loved ones


I procrastinated for groceries. Some friends visited yesterday. Drove me to local centre. Went to a variety store, selected 2 items. Oops. How to pay? On returning, discovered cards on a chair. Yes, I'd picked them up, then down again when I put on a cardigan. So ... visited one supermarket and my post office box today - made certain I placed cards in handbag last night

IF weather is pleasant tomorrow (Friday) shall return to the original place where I was driven yesterday

Really wish ONE place would stock all I want


First time for most things in life - I've in great trepidation ordered clothing online. I usually want to try on garments, although I have been happy with other online purchases over the years

Delivery expected first full week in October



Cheers

I am listening

Fleur,
Always love reaching into purse to not find the card I want. Better than it had been, though.

Buying clothing online is a gamble. You pick up strategy, though. Like I will buy Columbia winter boots size 10 repeatedly online because I know they fit.
What is the company’s return policy, if things aren’t right for you?Just some brain drizzle.
Hope you like what you ordered online.

[Fleur]

Thank you for listening GrowingTree


Thank you for your thoughts there. 30 day exchange. The company is Wish - I have been put off by some sites having poor reviews. Wish has positive feedback, including from a few people who requested refund - they return the cost of item, not shipping fee

I've purchased nonperishable food, Manchester, electrical items, other home wares, online, without any hassles. Even one of Soxy's collars

I suppose I'm old fashioned. I much prefer to see, touch, what I'm about to buy

Had a phone call from a clinic my pdoc referred me in June. Guess they've been busy. See the interview specialist under whom I'd be admitted on Wednesday 25th September. Apparently they have altered the program I want to join. It was touted as being most suitable for PTSD arising from "life" as opposed to a dated event. Now I cannot remember whether the course was to be offered for first time as inpatient program this year, as I haven't found the information on the website. I asked initially about it in April or May. Lots happened since

There was a private company offering similar but.... Out patients only and thousands of dollars. Oh, they did say they could make a payment plan. I worked out that at $25/fortnight, I'd be paying until 2028 or so, assuming without extra fees or interest

This is where I felt like I was about to explode with a receptionist who just didn't understand. I'd like to apply for X program as an inpatient please. Can you tell me how long I'd be in hospital? We have a 26 week program where you come in once a week for 1:1 and once for group work. Ok. I'd like to be an inpatient please. She goes through same brochure again. No. I don't want to visit twice a week. Oh, do you want to stay, to sleep, at the clinic. Yes please. How long is that program? Oh, we don't have a brochure for that. Could I speak with admissions? Oh no they are at lunch. Pointed out it was nearly 3pm. Ah, they are in a meeting. Steam pushing out. May I have a phone number please? Oh, I suppose so. Thank you - almost gritted teeth. I rang before I reached the station. Same person. May I speak with ...? Oh sure. Hmmmm. Meeting methinks was just a ruse? Had recently ended? Anyway, administration has checked my financial details, Medicare number, etc

It's way past bedtime. Cannot sleep. First the loud music and voices, then the traffic - first collision I've heard, sadly, now the wind


Much caring

[there]

Oh, Fleur,
All that runaround, seems like it sh7be should be illegal!
You stuck with that one, and I hope info you want and need is readily available next time, preferably with a different assistant.
Please don’t underestimate your strength, just for how persist and handle getting things done!
Soothing energy for your slumbers, wafting it’s way to you.
