Stress

Oh my. Today was crazy stressful. I can't count the amount of times I sat at my desk with my head in my hands!

I've been organising a big event for work (that is due to happen next week), with some very important people attending. This event is a very big deal.

So 5 minutes before I am due to finish work today.. I get a phone call from the PA of the VIP that is attending. I won't bore you with the details but they messed up and put our plans right out the window. TIME TO STRESS.

I'm driving home, and call my boss who had been out of the office, to update him. So I'm driving, talking 100 miles a minute, angry that all our good plans had been upended in such a massive way and turning the event into a train wreck.

Lewy calls me.. my voice is still shaking and I'm still angry and stressed. He says "wine?"... my man knows me well! Oh yes. Wine will calm the stress.

Fast forward to when I am back at home after picking up my boys, and I sms my boss to see if he had more luck with said PA than I did and he puts my mind at ease.. assuring me that he knows I did all I could (phew), and we will sort this out no matter what. There are options and it will all be fine.

"It's not what happens.. it's how we deal with them" my boss says. He's a good boss.
