Childhood Memories and Junk

Wow do I have a lot of Junk!

I used to live with my Grandmother before I moved in with my husband years ago. All of my stuff is still in my room in her apartment. Since she passed away in April we have had the task of going though her stuff and deciding what to keep, what to toss and what to try and sell. Plus I need to finally grow up and get rid of some of my old toys, magazines and stuffed animals. Not because I want to but because I don't have the room for it all and really don't want to get another storage room for it all. Today I went through my bookcase. I have a ton of romance novel paper backs that I'm gonna bring down to the library next chance I get. The magazines are crazy! I have/had and very odd wide range of likes. On the same shelf I found:

• Nintendo Powers from the 90's
• Games Magazines from the 80's
• National Geographic World Magazines from the 80's
• Deaf Life from the 90's
• Silent News form the 90's
• Realms of Fantasy (I have the 1st one from 94) Its well warn and was read though many times :)

Part of me wonders if I should try to sell them, another wants to find a way to store them and then lastly I just want to chuck everything.

What do you think??

Doctors Waiting Game

It should really be a crime to have to wait for over 2hrs in a doctors office when you have an appointment! Every doctor lately has huge wait times in the office on a regular bases. It can't always be emergencies and if it is your staff should make appointments with a bit a leeway just in case. Or if your office is running late, call your patients and say so. Be proactive about it. When I worked for an insurance office I used to know some of the offices really well and I heard so many excuses. That the price of malpractice insurance is so high I have to pack patients in the door just to make a living, or patients cancel so often I always double book and sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't.
And Don't Lie to Us.
I asked the girl when we got there about how long it would be, because my Grandmother had trouble sitting in hard chairs for very long. She said they were about 1/2 hour late because of emergencies. Well, I'm a talker, so I talked to the people in the waiting room. Everyone of them had already been there for over an hour and that they always have a couple hour wait. Unbelievable. When we finally saw the doctor I told him about it. He acted surprised and said he would talk to his staff but I don't believe him. If this was a doctor for me I would have left and told them why I was leaving.
Why do we put up with it?? How do they get away with treating us this way??? I never wait this long at a hair appt, are they better organized than doctors. A very scary thought!!
