So today, I get through my morning and decide to drive though Starbucks because the baby needed a sandwhich. I place my order and I'm three cars back, so I go to grab my wallet. You know, which lives in my purse. Which I forgot at home. It took me more than 3 hours and actually placing my order to realize this.
In true P-Lady form I start crying, not sure if I should just pull away leaving the Sbux people to wonder if they halucinated the order I placed, pull up and see if I can leave an IOU (?!?!?), or at least just apologize. At lease I had 3 cars in front of me, giving me time to not be able to make up my mind but to try and get it together.
I pull up to the window and just loose it. "I'm so-soo-soo sorry... I ju-just realized I left my pu-purse at home". Im not sure if it was pity, apathy, or an act of God, but the sweet lady at the window just said, "Don't worry about it, we already made everything. Try to have a better day!" and gave it to me for free.
I then proceeded to bawl about how kind she was and how I didn't deserve her sweetness.
And I still dont have my purse because, well, I'm in Naperville and sure as heck ain't going back home to get it.
I think this is God's way of trying to teach me I'm on the verge of total and utter lack of control... start embracing it now...

amen girl :) you got it figured out already hehe. Love!!
I'm right there with ya girl!
You're so cute. I loose my mind and I'm not even pregnant! I think you should maybe put up some baby bump updates soon for those friends that are miles away! Love you!
UTTER lack of control... coming from someone who previously liked (and still occassionally does) to control things/people/situations this is somewhat hard to surrender. BUT once you do realize that you really can not control this tiny child nor will you probably ever be able to, life gets a whole lot less stressful :) I love you friend & I am just a phone call away next time you have a break-down at the starbucks drive-thru!
-Your BFF :)
Any nice Starbuck's would do that. :)
