I called into the pharmacy on Friday to see if my new compressions had finally been delivered. Now, I've called in and asked twice since my initial appointment, and each time they'd said, not yet. Yesterday they admitted that while the script had been sent off, it had been done so without any measurements attached, and the right form had only been sent that morning.

Which is all kinds of frustrating, especially so as I had asked those two times. So, as they are made to measure, I'm looking at another fortnight at least to wait.

Yesterday I was Bodhisitting. She turns four next Sunday, so I was asking what she wanted for her birthday, and it's all superhero stuff as she's really into Spider-Man and the Hulk right now. Which okay, I can work with that. Kayleigh has actually bought a Spider-Man costume and intends to deliver Bode's birthday presents while dressed up. Which, way to go the extra mile.

Then last night we went to the theatre to see Chicago, and I enjoyed it lots. Roxie Hart was played by the ex Strictly pro Janette Manrara, and I wasn't sure what to expect as she's not the best as a presenter, but while she's obviously not a stage trained singer, I thought she did a good job. The whole cast did, in fact.

But in a what are the odds moment, two rows behind us was the woman who was thrown out of the Hamilton showing. She has a very distinctive voice and way of speaking, and I turned around and yep, there she was. This time much quieter, but she still chattered away throughout to her friends.

Today it was more Bodhisitting, and yet again I spent hours looking for criminals and getting arrested. Not sure what I ever did to require being arrested so often, but obviously I must be some kind of bad guy that needs locking away from the world.

OMG, you gotta buy tickets on the other side of the theater and get away from annoying woman! *g*

It's cute that she is into superheroes.

How frustrating about the compression stockings. (Do you have to wait to be able to wear the compression socks you ordered?)

Addi turned four this summer, then another child of an f-lister, and now Bodhi! This was quite a summer four years ago. *g*

Not again?!! Lightning surely won't strike three times?

You're such a good sport to play all the games with Bodhi!!

What an incredibly irritating thing to happen! If it's possible you should change pharmacy because it sounds like they're a disorganised mess! Sending you lots of fortitude to endure another long wait for your compressions!

An early Happy birthday to Bodhi! Already four years old - where has time gone?! Her current obsession makes me giggle. And it could be so much worse - it could be My Little Pony!!

You have all my sympathy having had your theatre night disturbed AGAIN. And by the same woman!

And now I'm laughing out loud at Bodhi's superhero obsession :-D
