Tell Someone What You Need

Kevin left to go to the clinic. Pump removal day.

He left and I jumped into action. Phoned the clinic. Told the receptionist he had hit a wall and waiting endlessly was not going to be an option today.

"He is not going to sit there and wait for no good reason. He doesn't have it in him today. I expect you to see that it doesn't happen."

Kevin strolled in the door 40 minutes after he left, amazed that he had been in and out of the clinic so fast that he didn't even have time to text message me.

Lesson of the day: Sometimes all you need to do is tell someone what you need.
