Mental Health Day
Feb. 20th, 2024 08:07 pmI don't know what I was thinking, scheduling a home visit for someone with dementia on the anniversary of my mom's death. I woke this morning totally unable to commit to going to work today. So, I didn't. I did very little at all, in fact. I took a long walk, snapped a few photos of spring flowers already poking up, which my mom would have loved. Baked a loaf of bread.
Unfortunately, the day ended with a sales pitch from a guy I wanted a quote from on new windows. I expected the quote. I did not appreciate the pressure to make a decision instantly. Is $18K a good price for ten windows, labor, etc? I DON'T KNOW. Told him I had to think about it. He kept "calling the office" to see how to sweeten the deal, though I told him several times I do not make insta decisions. Ugh. The final price was $17K, but only if I promised to leave multiple reviews along the process. Sounded a heckuva a lot like those sellers on Amazon who petition you to change your rating on their item by giving you free stuff.
I hate adult stuff sometimes.
Love you, Mom!
