What a morning it's been! I got out of bed extra early this morning as I have some major reviews happening at work. Since I was out of the office some last week, I just wasn't ready for the reviews. I've still been trying to recover from my trip to Michigan last weekend (more about that later, when I'm home with my pictures). So - last night, I was up late prepping for this review this morning and got to work at 7:30 to finish up before the reviewer came in at 9. I really don't ever get to work before 9 anymore (I love the flexibility of my job), and with a few other things going on, it's been so nice to sleep in some. Well, this morning, I walked out of the house (hair still wet, no make-up on), into the garage and pressed the button to open the garage door. The door started to open....and then fell. Not the way I wanted my morning to go. I had to wake up my poor husband who has to work until 3 a.m.and doesn't fall asleep until much later than that to help me get out. I pulled out of the garage with Danny holding the door open for me. Such a sad sight...
So I get to work and I start getting stuff done right away. I'm literally working down to the wire on this one. At 9 a.m., I am entering my last case note and the reviewer knocks on the door. I let her in and help her get settled and come back to my desk to just relax for a few minutes (read some blogs, check my personal email...) and there's another knock on the door. A maintenance man says, "Hi. Who drives that white Honda?" I say, "Well, I do." With a sheepish look on his face, he says, "Well....I was mowing the grass and I didn't realize it, but my mower spit grass all over the side of your car. It's covered on the other side. And I feel bad because it was so sparkly when I saw it this morning. I'm sorry." My response? "Oh, don't worry. My husband will be so excited to wash it....again. Since he just did that on Sunday." How about a hose buddy? Don't they have those around here? Spray it down for me! Geez....guess I know what I'm doing tonight.
I really hope today gets better...I think that is left in the hands of the reviewer. She has the power to make or break my day now. Fingers crossed....
