Time Change Killing Me

[Carol Dee]

My oldest runs on what we refer to as Justin time! He is chronically late. We will call as we are gathering at the table for a holiday meal and he says. *I am on my way!* Right, Just leaving his driveway is more like it. So one time we told him the party he was to attend was 1/2 hour earlier. Imagine our surprise when he showed up on time !!! Well actually a 1\/2 early... He was ticked.

I have a niece like that. She is always late to family gatherings and then makes her dramatic "entrance".

MIL was that way, DW is that way, so I call her Queenie as it is a power play to show who has the power. IF local event-like when kids had school events, we just left her. Next time, she was ready on time. Being late (& people that use cell phone while I visit with them) are my hot buttons.

Let a sales person answer a phone while talking to me, he couldn't sell me a life preserver IF I was drowning. IF he is late, better call or see what I do to those that answer cell phone.

Or when you are having phone conversation with somebody and they get another call, not an urgent call, just a call, and they put you on hold while they take it.

They do that to me, I HANG UP. Won't answer re-call.

I am always early for everything. Once I was meeting my nephew and his girlfriend at a restaurant. We where meeting at 8pm, they couldn't under why i was so mad when they showed up at 9pm, they had called me at 8:30 to say they where running late. I had already eaten when they got there, I walked out leaving them to pay my bill.
