Friday night again already! Check out the host for Friday Night Leftovers here.
* I still REALLY, REALLY, REALLY loathe ING. Today I got the 6th mortgage amendment papers after informing them of errors in the other 5. The numbers are all finally correct but they neglected to add room for signatures.
* ING also informed us that while we qualify for our new mortgage, we do not qualify for interim financing. So...?? This means that if the lawyers don't distribute the funds quickly enough, we will be homeless the entire weekend we should be unpacking. Oh and as an added bonus, we will be paying interest on top of it!
* This is the last ING related bullet, I swear! I finally lost my cool with them today. I have tried so hard to be patient while they mess with our lives. But, I lost it. Big time. I may have yelled and used the F word...twice. After speaking to a higher manager I feel NO better. They are clearly patronizing me and couldn't care less about my complaints. That being said, I have to finish up my complaint letter this weekend and mail it off and dismiss the negativity from my mind...before I lose what's left of it. I fully know nothing will come of the letter...we're stuck with them whether we like it or not but I have to expel it. Kind of like an exorcism of the negative ING voodoo in my brain right now!
* Samara was the crankiest crankypants today. SO cranky. SO SO SO annoying. Love her like crazy but wow did she test me today.
* I spent $50 on a pair of walking shoes for Samara yesterday. I had such bad buyer's remorse that I couldn't get to sleep last night. So I decided that while I can't return them, I can exchange them for 2 cheaper pairs.
* Samara said "mama" today but she said it to the rocking chair so it probably doesn't count.
* One of my close girlfriends let me know today that in Hinton, Alberta, someone shot her parents' 14 year old dog and drove away. This makes me sick. The dog is okay for the time being but an inch either way and she would not have survived. Let's just hope that karma or the law or whatever you choose to believe catches up with whoever did this.
* Is it possible that there are ruder people than doctor's office receptionists? I have been trying for the past couple of weeks to find a family doctor for Samara and myself in Lethbridge and there is not a pleasant one in the bunch. No, there are no doctors accepting new patients, no, we don't care that you will have to take your beautiful, innocent and precious little girl to the walk-in clinic and wait 4 hours with the dregs of society. Sigh...I was holding out hope for a female doctor but at this point I will take anyone with an actual degree.
Have a lovely weekend!

I will never deal with ING, ever. I'm sorry that you've had to deal with all of that.
I can't believe someone would shoot a dog - that is just the saddest.
Our drs office got a new receptionist when Roo was about a month old, she was so sweet and nice...now almost two years later - rude. I think working in a drs office does something to people.
I have found the same thing with receptionists at doctor offices. So frustrating!
First ING is RETARDED!!! and they deserve the f word...possibly more than twice. Second....Sam is so cute and I miss her to pieces...third...no I do NOT think anybody is ruder than them...I almost took a medical receptions head off a couple weekends ago but had to rethink do to the fact that it's such a small communities...word would probably get around and no one would see me!!!
Wow, I can't believe all the ING drama is still going on, what in the world is there problem???
I think some of the receptionists in doctor's offices think that they are the doctors, without the pay. They can be the WORST!
Oh no, what an awful time you've been having! I hope things settle soon and the ING financing works out in the end.
And yeah, I totally get the rude doctor's office problem. It's one of the only things I miss about Sask. Getting treatment or a doctor was SOOOO much easier there!
