today my client wanted to go get a belt for her daughter in law

dilemma 1) daughter in law is in England,

dilemma 2) client cannot walk well, has lupus

so I called in advance to ask where I should park to have the least amount of walking (she doesn't have a wheelchair, just walker). I park where they indicate me to.... only to realize we are nowhere near the Coach store. so we leave the Macy's store that we were told to park at and then drive to the other side. we finally get to the correct store-- they don't sell womens belts in the store.

(I'm laughing at this point-- sod's law)

she then wants to try saks fifth. so we drive over. this time I go in to check it out first, so she doesn't have to walk unnecessarily. Nope, they stopped selling belts


"well, this was an excersize in futility" she said

I agree-- we should have known the moment we were told to park at the wrong place.



just another day in the world of caregiving.
