Unluckiest week in Little Ms Absent-minded's life!

This sounds like a primary school composition title doesn't it? But seriously, this is quite an unfortunate week I've had so far... if I didn't believe in God, I will really think I'm down on my luck... but because I believe that God is God, who is in control of this universe, despite my haywire week, I am thankful that I am still sane... basically whatever can go wrong has gone wrong... here's the recap:

1. Monday morning- when I reached the office, I discovered that I forgot to bring my LAPTOP to work!! How can this even happen? Seriously bobo... how to work without my laptop? It's like a policeman who reached the police station and realized he left his gun at home. I was already so upset with myself, as I got home, i realized I forgot to bring my house keys!!!!!!!!!! Oh my gosh... real bad start to the week!!! Only managed to start work in the office at 10.30 am. =(

2. Monday afternoon- reached client's office for a short training session. Realized I forgot to bring my laptop charger!! So I sheepishly told my client that he only has 2 hours (cos that's how long my lap top can last without the charger...) Thankfully they were nice clients and the training was shorter than expected anyway.

3. Tuesday night around 11pm- found out that something I need to work on is not saved on my laptop but sitting in the office server!!!! XLQ was so kind to accompany me back to the office to get it... I was REALLY upset with myself by then... because I know I probably have to pull an all nighter because of all the time wasted... and tears of frustration rolled down uncontrollably...

4. Wednesday early morning at client's place, which is today- for some STRANGE reason, the work that I've done the night before between 12 am to 3.30 am mysteriously disappeared... I seriously PANICKED cos I'm supposed to give it to my client... Maybe I was too tired I forgot to save it? I don't know... at this point, I really felt like crying... especially when my boss and I were late for the meeting which was supposed to start at 8.30am... we got there close to 9 am because there was an accident along Lornie Road and we were on the Marymount/Lornie stretch for 45 MINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you believe that? Before I could start my presentation, I already felt exhausted... from lack of sleep and severe motion sickness. Thankfully I could send the stuff over to my client in the afternoon after I reached the office... but I had to redo a major part of it cos I simply can't find it in my laptop...

5. Then, when I reached the office, I realized that I have left my laptop charger in my client's office! CHAMPION- I am the champion of the world. Speechless.... absolutely speechless... One thing I'm thankful for... I thought today's meeting with the client will be super tough because they are rather demanding, but thank God it went really well and the client seemed to appreciate what we did...

BUT today is only Wednesday... the question is, can I survive Thursday and Friday? =( weekend, pls come quickly... the plea of a working folk.

Thankfully, life for Christians is really not about work... I think I will be a depressed individual if it is... even as a Christian, sometimes I get down thinking about work. God reminds us that we are whole and complete in Him, we don't have to find our identity in anything besides Jesus Christ, who has saved us from ultimate condemnation. But sometimes when you're swamped with work, you simply forget those facts of life... you simply get drowned in the work, the negative atmosphere, the gossip and politics involved...

I have to constantly watch myself and remind myself that I am a Christian first and foremost... there's really nothing more important than that in life. What a difficult struggle it is sometimes... But I always remind myself of my aim in life... to be a happy grandmother. =) Hopefully a god fearing, prayerful grandmother... maybe I should start this aim soon by having a kid soon. HAHA. Ok, that's me talking in a delirious state. Not ready. All right, before I ramble on... will sign off to enjoy this precious free weeknight...
