Like doctor's appointments, and such.

I'm not always real good, at keeping appointments. I used to say it was difficult, cuz I never know what mood I'm gonna be in----but, now I realize it's not my MOOD, per se, but what I'm doing, and if I'm deeply engrossed in my "interest of the moment", then I don't wanna be interrupted.

OTOH, it's good for me to set a time for something, otherwise it might never get done.

I show up at least a half hour early.

I'm very good at appointments.
I have many of them often and the only one I've ever missed was when I was about 1000kms away, and then I texted someone and got them to phone the clinic to reschedule.

I've never forgotten a single appointment and usually get there or try to get there a little before the time because I hate stress.

I'm always on time if not early. It was harder when I lived with my parents because I was dependent on them & occasionally my grandparents to bring me because my vision is to bad for me to drive & it was a rural area with no public transportation.
