Going strong.... SPEEDBUMP

Ok, so I have been doing really good all week so far. Been counting all my points, eveything that goes into my mouth gets written down. But see I am an emotional eater. And oh boy are the emotions running strong... Yesterday I made a HUGE boo boo. Our million dollar donor called and had not received the blank invitations I had sent him in the mail. Oh yeah, cause I forgot to send them, even tho I had told his girl I did. I guess there were just so many things coming across our desk that I honestly thought I had sent them. I felt terrible. I had popped them in the mail yesterday so that they would get them today but she wanted them now. I had mailed her the last of my invitations so I looked around the office and was able to scrounge up the amount I needed. I jumped in the car and flew down the freeway heading from Santee to Pacific Beach. I felt horrible. I knew that my boss would be pissed. When I got back to the office, the donor had called my boss, who was on vacation and told her that he was not happy about what had happened. I thought to myself "Great, now I have the wrath of Lesa upon me tomorrow". So I worried about it all night. I woke up with a migraine this morning from it. But not only that, we had gotten a notice from the property management company at home saying that they were going to do inspections of all the apartments. I was freaking out cause a couple months ago they had sent a flyer to every apartment stating that there were no pets, no bbq's and any modifications that were to be done to the place i.e. hanging hardware, painting, etc... required written consent from the management. We have a cat, curtains hanging and a bbq out back, all things that were either ok'd by the previous manager or never mentioned to us. I was so worried that they were going to make us get rid of them all. The curtains offer warmth/coolness to my room, the cat is like my child and the bbq was a gift from my grandmother when we moved in. I dont want to have to get rid of any of them. So I came to work today, talked with my boss, mistakes happen she said. Too bad it was with the million dollar doner as compared to a board member, grrr. The inspection went fine, they checked all the blinds, smoke detectors and windows, we also gave them a list of things that have been needing to be fixed since we moved in over a year ago. They even saw the cat trying to make a run for the door and thought it was funny. Whew... I popped 3 Excedrine Migraine and got back to work. I studied my oral review on my lunch break so that I will be prepared for meeting tonight. I am feeling much better now. Enjoying the rest of my day. Its a quarter til 4 so I will be outta here in a little over an hour. Will go home and finish my oral review since the last few questions are material I dont have access to here at work and my lunch was over before I could get to them. Hope everyone is enjoying our 80 degree sunny weather! C-ya,
