I had scheduled a delivery this morning to a Lovely Bride who I've known for years. Well, I got up, double checked the order, and realized that I had made her the wrong veil. The wrong veil? I looked again. The wrong veil. Ummm, paniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiic!
It is 100% my fault that this happened, but it wouldn't have happened if I hadn't lost that stupid, essential pattern! It is a pattern that I use to create two different veil lengths. It is the size of the shorter veil and I just add length when the longer veil is requested. I was so focused on needing that pattern to create this veil, that I made that pattern exactly, instead of adding the length as requested. Ugh!
A few years ago, when I was working in Atlanta, a co-worker (shout out to Stephanie!) could always tell when I was having a bad day, based on what time I dipped into the M&Ms bowl. Well, I didn't have any M&Ms here, so I had vanilla ice cream with Hershey's syrup at 9 this morning. Ridiculous, I know, but I needed a minute to decompress and think. This is the first time I've done this! What was I going to do? I can NOT deliver the wrong veil but it makes me look incompetent to admit that I made the wrong veil.
Although now, if Lovely Bride reads this, she knows why I rescheduled. Lovely Bride, I am so sorry!!
