Bad Day At Work!

It seems like we all have them! You know what I'm talking about, the day starts off bad and does nothing but get worse.


Last week I posted about work and fudge pie. Well, it seems yesterday we had an in service on autism, and how to work with nonverbal children. When we have these in services, the RIP sites we have throughout Tenn. attends. We usually have snacks and desserts for them. That's OK. The bad part came when a co-worker brought in a caramel cake. I looked at it, smelled it, and commented how good her cakes were. Her comment back was, "Oh No, none for you". That hurt, but I understood where she was coming from. Then she politely told me my cake was in the fridge!


Every year she makes me a Banana Split Cake, and when I looked in the fridge, there it was! This cake is special, only because this is what my mother made me every year for my birthday. When my co-worker found out, she started making it. Well, during the in service everyone ate, except me! I feel like I did pretty good. I did not even go in the room where the desserts were. After the in service, I asked how if everyone liked the Banana Split Cake, she said, "Oh, that cake never made it out, and since that was made for your birthday, we can have it tomorrow during planning meeting". I politely asked if it had sugar in it? The answer was no!


So, now I have to endure this all over again! I have a favor to ask, please keep me in your prayers today. I would hate for my friends to pick up the paper in the morning and read the morning headlines!


"RNY Patient Snaps"
"Womans Dies From Inhalation Of Bananas"


Have a good day! I'm gonna do my best!

As a post script, the day turned out OK. The cake was ate, yes I wanted some, but I also knew better. I guess the big thing that came out of this was how I feel about food! Especially food that brings back good memories from my childhood. Deep down I know that my co-worker had nothing but the best intentions! I really need to thank her, simply because she is very sweet and it is the thought that counts.

Everyday I learn something new about how I feel! That's a good thing, it only means that I am getting better!

Once again, have a good day!
